99.95 PM for internet radio.

They say on their FB page that Sligo will be up by the end of the week!

Postponed until next year because of a site issue!

Freedab mux turned on in Sligo yesterday according to a post in the Radio forum! Can anyone in town with a DAB set try and tune in and see what’s available? I tried in Ballisodare but it’s not picking up anything, maybe only geared towards the town.

There are nine stations listed but only 4 will play.I managed to pick up the signal in Ballisodare from the front of the house facing Sligo.Its great to have DAB at last in the NW!

Anything any good on it?

Freedab have put up another mast on the Ox Mountains out the Ballina road and also increased the power of the Sligo one!

Tried dab service on my radio, got two channels , neither great quality.

I’m in Ballisodare and can pick up 11 stations although they are not all playing as they are still testing.
