    Surprised there wasn't already a thread opened on this :confused:

    FM104 went off air today just after the 11am news bulletin and was STILL off ~2pm IIRC. It was back at 3.30pm when next I checked...

    Anybody know what happened? Transmitter down? Tape snapped? ESB dug up the mains? etc. Bizarre that it could stay down so long without somebody hitting Play on the emergency tape... :eek:

    Sounds like major transmitter site problems. Was on blank carrier with just RDS, no audio, until about 2pm. The online stream was playing a backup audio playlist alright, with the regular "Technical Difficulties" links between each song (always thought the online stream was taken off FM - obviously not!) but the backup audio didn't seem to make it as far as Three Rock.

    They were on the backup audio a couple of days ago too, as far as I remember, don't know what day it was exactly.

    4FM went completely off the air in Dublin at about 1.40am Friday 6th Nov and were down for at least an hour .Back by 330am when I next checked
