Hi Brian -

Ah, its the high priest, Sir Gerard of Roe

Coming in clear in here D7, but just to ask, its at about 40% of the strength of anything else from Three Rock (in comparison to DCAL FM)

Are you still testing different ERP?

yep, grand in Tallaght. Listened to it on teh way home today and heard some quality songs. You're brilliant even during Transmission tests!!!

tiggertigger

All good in Dunboyne! Yeay!
No idea how to give you a percentage on signal strength...
but I can hear it in stereo anyways.

decob

working fine in ashbourne...

mollser

Leopardstown loud and clear, although its not far from the transmitter so you'd expect that!

BTW, the test transmission mix is class, I honestly think if thats the standard of the music and production that we'll hear, you'll be a far bigger station than your target of 2%, seriously believe you'll be up there with FM104 etc within 2 years. Why not? Every other city around the world that has a rock station its usually one of the bigger stations!! Especially with blokes

Best of luck guys, its been too long!!!:)
