    We're streaming a test transmission loop on our website at the moment. Go to ChristmasFM.ie and click listen live.

    Its really close now, station is all set up (I'll post pics at the weekend once its tidy) and this week presenter are doing dry run shows (not aired im afraid), to make sure they are well versed with the equipment for the live shows.

    We're trying to put a big push on facebook so anyone who is on there please please "like" us. The amount of fans we have means more people find out about us and more money is raised for the charity Barnardos.

    This must be your first Christmas here in the Christmas Thread. Christmas FM has been going for the past 2 years this year will be its 3rd. log onto www.christmasfm.ie and find out more there or go back onto the Christmas page and look at the special Christmas FM Thread there. And yes they do play Christmas songs 24/7 ! :):)

    Thanks. Didn't know about that radio station. First time i've seen an add regarding it. And i have been in and out of the christmas forum for a few years and didn't come across it here before either. At least i know of it now anyway. Might be better listening compared to all the doom and gloom on the other stations at the moment . Cheers

    Yeah there's a megathread on it here. To be honest I had never heard the slightest thing about it until I checked the Christmas forum here in August. Looking forward to Monday. It seems to be playing at the moment over the website though.

    It's working fine for me so maybe this might be of use to someone? I dunno.

    Is Christmas FM finished? All I'm getting is some American "Christmas across the lands". I thought they were on air until St Stephen's Day?

    Think the Irish DJ's will be back on tomorrow or Stephens day. Christmas across the lands sucks, id rather they just put their playlist on shuffle for the night.

    Hey guys, Thanks for the feedback about the Christmas Around the World Feature, we'll keep it in mind for next year. As you can understand we're a volunteer station and its hard to get our volunteer presenter to fill up a full schedule on Christmas day. We're live till tomorrow, 26th which is our last day and will have the usual presenters back on for the last day.

    So overall what did people think of the station this year?? Any suggestions for next year??
