Easy back on 91.6 today.

Dance was on earlier this morning - Easy sold stock lock and barrel to Dance - so would be surprised if Easy was back, alas unfortunately no radio nearby

Definitely back, still on air this morning.

With Dance, was the owner maybe just trying something different that didn't work out?

I do like my 90s, but Dance had bottom of the barrel stuff on their playlist. Like the next singles released by one hit wonders - they kind of sound the same, but are just never going to be as popular.

Nice signal and audio though.

Different owner afaik, listening a few minutes ago and the music did sound familiar though !

The Easy format could work but imho a tighter playlist is required.

Although we have been told Dance 91 and Easy were different stations owned by different people, I am beginning to wonder whether they are one and the same outfit.

KIC FM music style all over the place. Either it's a pure Country station or it is not. C'mon operators, make up your mind, are you going to play Country or are you going to ape Dublin's Country Mix, hell you're also using their tag line too!

to clarify the above we can say for sure that dance 91 had nutting to do with myself I have indeed returned to air with easyradio after speaking to the owners of the dace station that was on 91.6fm letting them no of my choice in returning to air with easyradio

easyradio, could you clarify further please?

On 12-5-14 on these boards you stated that "we have sold lock stock and barel to the people behind dance 91.6 easyradio only on line now"

but then on 16-06-14 you state that you have returned to 91.6, informing the operators of dance 91.6 of your intentions.

Did you sell the operation and then take the freq back anyway?

Sounds like either the TX equipment & site was rented out (not sold) to Dance 91, or it was Easy Radio all along just trying something different.

to clarify I had indeed not sold the gear or had any part in dance 91 I had leased all of the tx equiptment and site out to the guys hope this clears up for you guys

Listening to it !

Not as strong as it was before from where I am listening at least.

Isn't there a part time reggae station on 87.6?

yes, NLR, weekends only though i think

What are Galaxy up to? Can the operator stop flipping (changing) names and formats and just stick to one?

Friday to Sunday - Galaxyfm footprint in Dublin is similar to NLR so its probable that one station will have to move frequency.

NLR was on air today on 87.6

NLR on 87.6, Galaxy as clear as before on 92.2 but nothing on 107.9 this evening.

Yes, Galaxy seems to be strong again but was a blank carrier last few times I checked.

Phever seemed a bit weaker, but that could be just where I am.

NRG live and consistent as usual, fair play to them.

Phever also changed their RDS to PVR932 today.

Back to Phever now - modulation high, Galaxy still on a blank carrier, no sign of Easy and yet to hear KIC on 107.9 , there was something on 107.9 earlier today but it was dance music.

Whopper of a signal from Galaxy. I was down way past Tullow, nearly into Wexford, and could pick it up.

Still a blank carrier though.
