But most of the time it's slightly different with the local NE based stations having more bandwidth allocated. This is what is available today. Signal is quite poor in some areas NRG Radio Cork - 96k NINETIES - 96k Trance Pulse - 64k Trax - 72k Atlantis - 48k Zenith Rock - 48k Spektrum Radio - 64k Telstar 80s - 128k Coast FM - 96k Storm North East - 128k Soul City - 64k Wild Country - 128k Sovereign Gold - 48k Smash Radio - 48k

There a fantastic station carrying a great format and the station itself is tightly put together .freedab is proud of the services it now Carrys as it's the type you will not get on FM. This is what dab should be utilised for as the bai account holders are happy on fm and have zero intrest In implementing the digital era so the best solution is utilise dab for small scale stations to use and if thos stations want to apply for an fm licence then thay have grounds to do so .further more freedab is non profit meaning .all the proceeds go to site costs and expansion. We do not or want to make money. We are more than happy to just cover runing costs as expected in runing the service .until comreg and the bai decide it is time to implement a more realistic strategy in licenceing dab and its contents then our goal will remain unchanged .

Until then thay are across Dublin on fm.

The reception on the DAB stations used to be fine but has been muck the last number of months, and I've been reading online that 2-channel dashcams are known to interfere with the DAB antenna when hardwired. The reception comes and goes with large gaps of dead air in between. It's been happening so long that I'm unsure if the issue started when I got the dashcam, but when someone mentioned this issue today it dawned on me that it might have been around the same time. 'll disconnect the dashcam tonight and see if that makes any difference. Has anyone ever figured out a way around this issue as I'd love to have both, if possible.
