Pirate radio predictions for 2019? Mine are:
Dublin - Hot, Now and Fresh leave the airwaves, the oldies stations become one (maybe)?
Cork - sprog box 104.9 either goes off air or gets hit

My prediction for 2019 also is the so called ghost owner/helper/funder of the pirate station Power87 in cork who is also involved in a legal station in cork will get found out as word on the streets gets around. Word in the streets is calls have been recorded with this guy and texts saved so theres proof and he could lose everything including hes job which is sad. Hes playing a dangerous game from what is been talked about around cork. This guy has alot more to lose then pirates been raided or fined. This is whats been talked about with word of mouth in cork. So just passing it on dont shoot the messager. Peace out

end of the road

if hot does leave, i suspect it won't be at their own hand. after all people have been predicting for a while it wouldn't last and yet it's still here.

ps 104.8 down in cork is nrg apparently, all though i have saw no evidence that it is using a sprog box.

Talk elsewhere online that 104.9 is causing interference to 104.0 CRY east of Cork city

Haven't seen any first hand evidence of this myself but I haven't been in the area recently

Another word for harmonics. That word is often used by the same guy in cork.

Is that an implication?

Folks

Can I ask is Howth Head as good as anywhere for doing a band scan? Do you have any suggestions nearer to Dublin 15?

Thanks in advance

Only issue with Howth Head is the BBCs are very strong and wipe activity on 88.1/91.6 etc and RETRO (off air today) was weak there

Hot fm are transmitting a blank rds name since yesterday.

This was later fixed. Hot fm is like that auntie that seems to live forever despite all the odds.

Are Retro, Fresh and Now seemingly gone?

Fresh and Retro still in air ,Retro weekends only.
Now have been off air for more than a month, surprising no one has taken the 91.6 slot.

What’s going on with Trax today. Playing old Pulse jingles and links the past twenty minutes I’ve been listening. Taken me right back.

This is a tribute to Alan McQuillan (see separate thread on Boards). Alan was a very respected in radio and we are happy to be involved in relaying this. It will continue until Sunday 6pm. Our Trax internet stream will be online as normal.

TallGlass

I'm a bit confussed, Trax is relaying RTE Pulse on FM only?

TraxDublin

No, it's completely unrelated to RTE Pulse - the audio is from Pulse 103 FM, the dance radio station that was operating in Dublin from the mid to late '90s where Alan worked.

Belfunk

I didn’t realise Alan was Al The Gardner, lovely tribute. I’ve no FM radio in the house, is the online stream different?

DopeTech

RDS is showing "FOR ALAN". Nice of them to pay tribute.

marno21

Fair play lads. Very nice touch.

Alan was Al the Gardner and Mikka the knacker on The Doghouse on Pulse 103 Fm , Nice tribute to a lovely bloke and I’m sure with the way relays have worked over the past few weeks it’ll turn up on other frequencies over the weekend

end of the road

i presume this tribute isn't being broadcasted online?

Nrgfm

Now on 107.1 , 101.2 , 93.2 Good to see all the lads getting involved and marking this sad occasion, Alan would be laughing his head off if he could see all the Rds displays with his name
