    I had a little bit of trouble with it on my car radio around lunchtime yesterday, but a quick search through the frequencies found it again.

    I tried that this morning and nothing, sounds like they're slowly fixing the problem

    I think it may have been due to a problem with the radio transmitters up on Woodcock Hill serving the Limerick City area rather than with Newstalk.

    RTE Radio One was off the air on 89.4 MHz too for quite a while on Mon morning. These outages with transmitters on Woodcock are a fairly frequent occurrence.
