Any free frequencies in the West Waterford area? Can't think of any that won't get interference from Cork somewhere or other.

Mr. MooYagi

What's the story with Phever on 94.3? On or off this evening,? Cant check where I am. Out and about today and got that BlackRock school temp station. Dublin bandscan anyone? Thanks

For a while on Friday evening I heard a station on 107.8 playing pop/dance music that was getting wiped out under a lot of other stations. No word of it by the end of the weekend, possibly a good thing.

107.8 (& 107.3) have both been licenced for use in Dublin - a number of college temps have used 107.8

Nothing noted on the BAI website for this end of the band. It's hardly a late addition?

TuneIn have been battling against the record labels for a while now. Recently the courts in the UK ruled they broke copyright infringement by allowing listeners in the UK access to non-UK stations.

Great platform, but its going to get its hands tied.

I'm an occasional snooper on this page and this ^ is something that caught my eye and maybe you'd be able to help or explain.

I'm a big fan of Planet Rock. They are on DAB in the UK and also online. I can add their station on TuneIn but it won't play. Can't install their app on my phone either - "not available in your location".

But.....and this is a big but. How the hell can I go to channel 0110 on my Sky box and listen to them? Plus, if I go to their website and register with a NI postcode, it works?

Satellite signals can't be blocked, and radio stations are not usually encrypted - so you can listen to it no problem via satellite. Not sure if it's restricted on TuneIn or actually removed. You can listen directly to their stream on a computer or mobile, it's in AAC format so you'll need the right player (like VLC media player). The link for Planet Rock is https://stream-mz.planetradio.co.uk/planetrock.aac.

It's practically nationwide. Is this the most locations that Christmas FM have had to date? Where in Ireland would it still be difficult to pick up, after allowing for spillover from neighbouring areas?

Waterford a new addition for 2019. Up to 16 relays now - it’s very impressive.

It's not geo blocked on Sky and even if it was you could tune via other channels similar to eg BBC6. The Sky signal on spot beams is receivable only it the UK and Ireland.

As an aside a 3rd new service has been added to the Sky EPG radio section this year - Hearts 90 (Scala and Virgin were added earlier in the year )

Haven't heard Flirt (106.6-ish?) in quite some time.

Marno I reckon you’re the person to ask: what frequencies would you consider to be clear in the Dungarvan/West Waterford areas

Correct. Two different DAB broadcast formats, likely testing both to see which suits them best.

Funny enough my Pure radio wont play NINETIES, but will play NINETIES+, odd?

kazoo106

Possibly because DAB+ will deal with a weak signal slightly better

Mr. MooYagi

Freedab signal not strong in most of dublin when I be in my car. No signal today in Howrh and on some of town. Is it still on,?

JDxtra

Heard some DJs testing live today on Extreme FM in Dublin.

there was a dj testing last night as well, station launch is tomorrow at either 9 or 10 am.

Live shows all day today on extreme 107.1 sounds great!!

Oscarziggy

Very strong signal with test tone on 6210 khz

castle2012

In Drogheda extreme 107.1 not coming in which is strange as 107.1 has always been clear from Dublin. Retro sounded good and Tonik radio back in the day. They must not have a great site.
105.2kiss coming in perfectly up here

Infoanon

The 90s network is on air today, in the past transmissions were only Friday to Sunday

JDxtra

Now getting Xmas on 88.1, 99.4 and 105.2 in my area. Presume the others are on air now or coming soon.

Please see list above for Christmas FM frequencies around the country. I added the bit in bold and italics for Monaghan, as there has already been a blank carrier there.

This must be the largest geographical spread to date that Christmas FM has had on FM radio. What areas of the country can Christmas FM still not be picked up on FM radio, bearing in mind that some adjacent areas can pick it up?
