Have to say tuned into now fm in Dublin. And I have to say very disappointing there audio and the strenght of there signal. Giving the guys behind it, I expected much better

Now FM are very disappointing. They have had weeks to prepare so no excuses. Awful signal and incredibly bad audio. DJ on now you cant even hear him talk.

Declan A Walsh · 01-09-2018 8:04pm

Energy AM was on 1395 kh as well today.

Currently listening, Fabio on air... 150bpm lol. With all the money they have, and they can't even sort their signal and audio out. No good just pumping it all in to their studio with silly lights and branding etc...

fabio is playing hard house, some of which can be quite fast. hopefully the lads will get everything sorted soon.

Do they stream online?

I don't use FM radio players since 2005.

Yea it makes no sense. Pump money into a studio etc. Then broadcast on low power with terrible audio. Trax the only one doing the job correct

He can stay on Facebook all he likes. As long as the FM signal stays off I'm happy with that. I'm sure I ain't the only one.

Hot FM are on there now again on 91.0 but it's either very low power or not from an elevated transmission site.

Sounds like it's running off the exciter - desparately weak signal.

A relay of Phever has appeared on 94.3 - low power in Rathfarnham could be a fill in for poor reception areas for 88 1

Of course both frequencies will need to be vacated for temps over the next while.

Energy coming in strong on 1395 - full power 800 watts now on ? Pity about the bass on the audio but great to hear AM activity.

Hot FM today only receivable in the tallaght area. Has to be the poorest I've ever heard. Reckon the antenna is on the roof of LD's house

So true. The signal for Hot is dreadful. It is so bad I think the antenna is down. Very sloppy work and very silly. If by some miracle a listener can tune in they then have to tolerate horrific audio. They need to pull the plug. It's over.

JDxtra · 05-09-2018 2:32pm

Love songs/easy listening music on 93.2 this afternoon in Dublin. Strong signal.

Wonder what happened kiss

KildareP · 06-09-2018 9:55am

None of the pirates making it out into Kildare past Rathcoole

iRadio and Beat both having audio oddities on some of their frequencies the last few weeks though.

iRadio on 104.7 sounds horribly distorted but 105.6 and 106.2 both sound fine.

Beat on 102.0 sounding awful for a few months now, like someone turned the bass all the way down and the treble all the way up, but 102.4 is sounding very nice in comparison.

Beat on 102.0 has been like that for a while, sounds aweful

I'd swear it was a fault (double pre-emphasis in the link chain maybe?) but for it to have gone on that long unnoticed, it can't possibly be a fault?

Or maybe they thought it would sound OK on a pop station?
In relation to your post about pirates in Kildare, is Hot/Galaxy gone? Can you not get Flirt on 106.6?

Hot (Kildare) has not been on for some months. Flirt 106.6 recently reported issues, so are also off.

KildareP · 06-09-2018 8:03pm

There's a significant volume difference as the radio switches automatically between 102.0 and 102.4 travelling through Kilkenny though, so one of those frequencies has a problem and I hope to feck it's 102.0 because it sounds terrible!

If I'm over Ballynafagh direction over the weekend I'll do a quick scan there as well, the elevation means you've a good clear view across all the main TX sites circling Dublin so tend to get lots more individual stations and alternate frequencies up that way.
