    No signal out my way. Maybe a rebranded The Beach?

    I managed to pick up The Vault on 105.7 FM yesterday evening and today around Donnybrook, Clonskeagh and Dundrum. It fades around Ballinteer. I know The Beach used to be picked up in Stillorgan, Leopardstown, Kilmacud and Dundrum. Maybe The Beach is gone or has been rebranded. Otherwise, there could be a problem as there definitely would be an overlap.

    Today I also picked up three more largely oldles-oriented stations around Dundrum:
    Retro FM - 92.0 FM - variable reception
    Easy Radio (it plays love songs, which are mainly oldies) - 88.8 FM - good reception and
    Energy AM. - 1395kh (Medium Wave) - very good reception
    Others:
    Phever - 94.3 - very good reception
    Fresh FM - 99.4 - very good reception

    Fresh FM - 99.4 - very good reception
    99.5 for Fresh surely? You should also be able to get Kiss on 102.5.

    The Vault is on air - 105.7 - Dublin South East

    87.6 Chill FM - different site or much reduced power as inaudible in many locations

    Sorry, Fresh is on 99.5 (and not 99.4 as I said). Yes, I also picked up Kiss over the last few days on 102.5 and the signal is very strong all over Ballinteer, Dundrum and surrounding areas.

    Maybe it has replaced The Beach because that covered the same part of Dublin.

    If it is coming from Howth Head area, I would say it's the first to come from that area in a long long time. When was the last time a pirate came from there?

    Spirit radio's 549kHz AM currently transmitting 1kHz tone at varying levels, instead of regular audio.

    Update 1:30, Just checked again and programme audio has returned

    Sounds great on my phone. Whats the difference between aac and mp3 ?


  • Registered Users Posts: 158 ✭✭hustlergraham

    AAC is better quality at lower bitrates. A 128kbps stream in AAC would be nearly equivalent to a 320kbps Mp3 stream.

    That Kiss stream is not working for me today
