    Newstalk on FM has disappeared in the Sligo Town area, well, in my house anyway! Perfect on Satellite and Internet. Anyone know why?

    Oh! Are you in Sligo Town? I have perfect line of sight of Truskmore transmitter. No FM Newstalk all weekend on every device. Strange.
    Typical, just checked it again and guess what? Back on air.

    Odd one. Works on my car radio, in and around town and beyond, and radio in house in town.

    Reception very poor in north west area. Drops off for a few seconds or drops volume when driving.

    Nothing new about that! I'm in a strong signal area and it completely disappears quite regularly. North West mustn't be very important to them. Maybe move the dial back again!!
