    Pirate radio predictions for 2019? Mine are:
    Dublin - Hot, Now and Fresh leave the airwaves, the oldies stations become one (maybe)?
    Cork - sprog box 104.9 either goes off air or gets hit

    My prediction for 2019 also is the so called ghost owner/helper/funder of the pirate station Power87 in cork who is also involved in a legal station in cork will get found out as word on the streets gets around. Word in the streets is calls have been recorded with this guy and texts saved so theres proof and he could lose everything including hes job which is sad. Hes playing a dangerous game from what is been talked about around cork. This guy has alot more to lose then pirates been raided or fined. This is whats been talked about with word of mouth in cork. So just passing it on dont shoot the messager. Peace out

    if hot does leave, i suspect it won't be at their own hand. after all people have been predicting for a while it wouldn't last and yet it's still here.

    ps 104.8 down in cork is nrg apparently, all though i have saw no evidence that it is using a sprog box.

    I'm very highly educated. I know words, i have the best words, nobody has better words then me.

    Talk elsewhere online that 104.9 is causing interference to 104.0 CRY east of Cork city

    Haven't seen any first hand evidence of this myself but I haven't been in the area recently

    Another word for harmonics. That word is often used by the same guy in cork.

    Folks

    Can I ask is Howth Head as good as anywhere for doing a band scan? Do you have any suggestions nearer to Dublin 15?

    Thanks in advance

    Only issue with Howth Head is the BBCs are very strong and wipe activity on 88.1/91.6 etc and RETRO (off air today) was weak there

    This was later fixed. Hot fm is like that auntie that seems to live forever despite all the odds.

    Are Retro, Fresh and Now seemingly gone?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,901 ✭✭✭Infoanon

    Fresh and Retro still in air ,Retro weekends only.
    Now have been off air for more than a month, surprising no one has taken the 91.6 slot.

    What’s going on with Trax today. Playing old Pulse jingles and links the past twenty minutes I’ve been listening. Taken me right back.

    This is a tribute to Alan McQuillan (see separate thread on Boards). Alan was a very respected in radio and we are happy to be involved in relaying this. It will continue until Sunday 6pm. Our Trax internet stream will be online as normal.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,908 ✭✭✭TallGlass


    I'm a bit confussed, Trax is relaying RTE Pulse on FM only?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28 TraxDublin


    No, it's completely unrelated to RTE Pulse - the audio is from Pulse 103 FM, the dance radio station that was operating in Dublin from the mid to late '90s where Alan worked.

    I didn’t realise Alan was Al The Gardner, lovely tribute. I’ve no FM radio in the house, is the online stream different?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,076 ✭✭✭DopeTech


    RDS is showing "FOR ALAN". Nice of them to pay tribute.

    Fair play lads. Very nice touch.

    Alan was Al the Gardner and Mikka the knacker on The Doghouse on Pulse 103 Fm , Nice tribute to a lovely bloke and I’m sure with the way relays have worked over the past few weeks it’ll turn up on other frequencies over the weekend


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,494 ✭✭✭✭end of the road


    i presume this tribute isn't being broadcasted online?

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9 Nrgfm


    Now on 107.1 , 101.2 , 93.2 Good to see all the lads getting involved and marking this sad occasion, Alan would be laughing his head off if he could see all the Rds displays with his name
