This sculldugery is not as recent as people think it's gone on since the 80s at least

It seems raw have been the victims of rather bad luck and bullying as 87.5 was taken of them by live fm for no reason and now they been sold a dial for a large sum of cash which they dont own. Buying a dial seems risky especially if you are buying it not directly like they did now they lost two dials and a studio and have not had a run on air for a year.when it started it was doing great and thats what the owners are trying to get back to which obvo is not gonna happen as all the djs and listeners and hype have gone plus they wont ever get a run like they did then again so theres zero point now they should save there money and give up before they lose more cash. Theres not enough to be made from it to ever get the sort of cash they spent back anyway!

I Did a dnb set on raw a few years ago and the listeners base for a pirate station for that time was the most ive experienced as far as the phone line goes it just wouldnt stop ringing and it wasn't the same old numbers it was buzzing this was when they had there best run on 87.5fm covering most of London and South East . I got a pal who still played up until raid and he said nothing was seized as it was only online at the time. Met both owners at the time they were good stuff. Went away at beginning of this year came home they were beating out on 99.7fm in june then disappeared . like the post above I doubt it will ever get thebbuzz back and the run it had a few years ago but u never know

They was getting to southampton from london on 87.5 and also to luton they was booming out for sure pal. Not sure where it went wrong but there enjineer had alot of enemies i know that but surely they got to be idiots to let live fm take there dial and do nothing and then try and buy 99.7 when they already had there own dial its all very strange im sure they know. My pal has been on there since day one and hes gutted as it got really big quickly. Maybe they can reclaim 87.5 and make another go of it you never know

I only received Raw 99.7 once, since they moved from 85.7! The signal was very weak, but I was able to record voice ID. That's how I recognize them. It was sometime in June. Since then, no signal at all. When they transmits on 87.5 the signal was near perfect at my QTH.

Radio one relays would stop 997 going to far and nothing can beat 875
