    Sorry guys! Weekends only on FM - we'll be switching the transmitter off during the week to avoid temptation! You can tune in online during the week.

    This is great news! Fair play to all the guys up in Phantom Towers. Now let's hope the BCI keep up this type of approach!

    Any idea what the programming schedule is going to be? Will the 2 Petes be allowed to talk rubbish, or will they have to be all serious?

    Now I have a smile on my face! :D

    On the one hand its feckin great news.

    Puase for thought here but, ****!n ell like, weekends only. Generosity overwhelms the BCI, my thoughts of this are contained in this little box [ ] so as to not offend any BCI people who may read this board which I doubt cos it cant be stuffed in a country music flavoured envelope.

    Anyway, nice to have ye back(if theres any 'top deejaaays' left)

    What happens at the end of your stint, back to the old cd player I guess.

    Come on ya miserable gits... we want 7 days 24/7...no forkin surrender.

    Remember when you wanted a millenium falcon for xmas and all you got was a poke in the eye with a bent spoon.

    This morning in work I stumbled on some lass playing *Mostly* Indie stuff on 97.3 And making the usual fumbles with the Cd player that is a Trademark of Phantom, I couldn't quite Identify the Voice though as I had to change before my manager Copped on, Who was it, was it one of you's or somone poaching yer new spot, (Feel Free not to Reply on Leagel Grounds):horned:

    97.3 is a frequency allocated for temporary radio services. At the moment, Trinity FM (TCD) are using the frequency. While Phantom FM is on at weekends there maybe other services on air on the same frequency Monday to Friday - do give them a listen!

    This is why we will be switching off our transmitter during the week and there is no chance of hearing us outside of the weekends (apart from tuning in online).

    Us fumbling with CD players? Never ...

    hi, new guy etc..

    anyway, Phantom has a temporary licence now, but is this the first time they have had any licence at all?
    I mean, it isn't really pirate anymore - which doesn't make a blind bit of difference, but I was just wondering if this is the first time Phantom has ever been legit?

    Interesting James Hunt trivia: I was at the very first Phantasm in The Beanery.

    Ok so I may have misread that but I hope phantom is going to be using a stronger transmitter that the other temporary stations do as I find it difficult to hear any of them clearly.
