i think they only lease the equipment for their time on air so i would doubt they actually have it outside their broadcast time.
but i could very well be wrong on that.

You are very much wrong on that one. They own their own studios and run broadcasting courses from it. Studios are a permanent fixture.

Our Gold Radio has gone silent again, the powers that be in Gold Radio should release a statement on its situation and make it final.

Even if it starts playing music again, it's become clear that the station is pretty much unstable.

I have not listened to it since it's first week of "official" broadcasting. I can see why Mike Moloney may have departed, from what I could make of it, it seems too much geared towards the standard hits of the 80s.

Who actually owns Gold Radio?

Its an internet radio station, not a multi million euro corporation.

The 5 people that were listening will just go elsewhere! :rolleyes::rolleyes:

Best staying away from the Gold website - its littered with Malware

Gold Radio is gone off the website now, a complete shutdown, no more to say on the matter.

Hope Mike Moloney does finally get a station up and running.

I just wish RTE could get their act together on the future of RTE Gold. Would love to hear Mike on RTE Gold again like in a more stable expanded schedule including Eric Moore, Al Dunne etc.

Comical mess. Blew the media coverage they could get when clearly totally unready.

There are teenagers who can run online stations reliably from their bedrooms; and community setups across the country doing far more on shoestrings.

There are plenty of Gold Radio stations in Ireland.

The sound bite announcement that I have just heard regarding the station's opening date and time sounded like Liam Quigley. As he was involved with Gold.ie, I would say that Mike Moloney's involvement is a strong possibility.

Music One is indeed Mike's new station. David Lyons will be on also

From what I've heard of it so far, the station seems to have a much more expanded playlist than gold.ie had.

Gold radio is back! I found it on the Radio Garden app yesterday. I'm not sure how long it's been back there.

It has taglines like "nothing but the good stuff" and "playing the good stuff", variations of the original one with Mike Maloney. It seems to be more UK-oriented going by the voiceovers. There was also briefly a relay today of Sky Radio News (Sky something anyway!).

Perhaps a change of ownership and maybe a change of emphasis in its geographical target market? It still comes under Dublin stations on the app though. In fact, if you do a search on the Radio Garden app, it's the only station that is returned with that exact name (as opposed to similar sounding ones), which is a bit surprising.

It’s back a couple of months now
