    the kiss fm on 1025 now is the one which was on 93.2.

    ticking a box on a form does not make you of a religion.

    RetroNow have been using 102.5 from mid-February to date. I expect this move will impact them. If I recall, the station known as 1025KISS finished up around mid-January.

    RetroNow is only audible in Dublin SW - and even then reception is hit and miss. Losing the mountain site for 107.1 was a huge loss for them.
    Personally I would have thought 93.2 a better choice than 102.5 - expect Q to be a lot more vocal if there is over modulation etc etc

    With the easing of the lockdown fewer stations are on the air during weekday day time :
    Bandscan Dublin SE at 4pm

    87.6 Chill
    88.1 Pirate
    91.0 Hot
    98.4 the 90s Network
    102.5 Kiss
    107.1 Club

    Yep, correct. Caution required however mod levels were off when I reviewed it earlier.

    102.5, You’ve got Kiss from Dublin & RetroNow from Meath, What a mess when they meet in the middle. Once you go beyond Finglas & Blanchardstown heading out of the city RetroNow is niggling away at Kiss, When you get to Meath it’s Kiss niggling away at RetroNow, What a mess as both stations coverage is affected.

    Maybe the KISS operators on 102.5 are inexperienced or naive but they've shown no regard of other operators so far, maybe they just listen to a radio, hear a hiss, and switch on their rig? I wouldn't think they'll gain any respect in the small cadre of experienced operators with this kind of behavior.

    their instagram was working for me recently so deactivation must have happened quit recently, their facebook hasn't reappeared though.
    would be nice if they came back.

    All i would like to know is whats the point kiss sounds bad from the first day it came on as pure fm.
    Several attempts with name changes Frequencies ect.
    And it still Sounds bad.

    The car garage ad they are running is worse then bad its just shows the Desperate measures that have to be taking i think kiss and hot should from as one.

    Actually maybe not they still couldnt get it right

    If they think they have a flowing or listener's they do them self's that would be it as far as i can see.
    I think its bad from to jam a station ok that can only be heard in parts of Dublin but it shows these guys have no respect for others .

    Time will repay them im sure and i do not see them around for long .

    Is this FreeDAB? Interesting mix of current FM pirates, internet stations and at least one former FM pirate from 20 years ago (Dublin's ABC). Zenith Classic Rock, who has had previous temporary licenses, is turning up everywhere at the moment!

    Using the same Kiss name and freq. is cheeky especially when it is another dance station and the music style is similar.

    This version of Kiss has poor audio with a screeching sound underneath. It is like a cheap knock off from AliExpress.

    There was a Kiss on 93.2 in recent years, but this one is different. It had been operating on 93.2 for a few months before moving.

    There's plenty of other frequencys they could have used. But these guys have made no impact, so instead get people to think its the 1025kiss that was on air earlier this year.

    Sorry I must of missed the rule part of no names .
    Yet paul Wilson just said him self he runs easy.fm . And if you go back through posts many times names have been said about other stations.

    So unlike some of you that pass comments .I'll name them.

    At the end of the day everyone of theses station the good and bad are breaking the law.

    To be fair Paul himself posts here and that's his choice if he wants discuss his business on a public forum.

    My point is you've named some people there connected to a live gig all the while hiding your own identity behind a username, it's just bad form really illegal or not.

    I'm not the boards police, just merely suggested if you wanted to change your post.
