OK uksounds.. There is only a bit of info about innov8 and it's on a thread in here...bit of a mystery innit! "DAB" is swearing in our house and haven't got a dab radio anymore because they only lasted for a year or two and then stopped working on dab but the fm still worked.. Squelch squelch is all I can hear on dab..not for me personally!.

Hahahahaha, this post made me laugh.

Just heard a Station somewhere local to Manchester identify themselves as "Innovate Radio" or "Innov8 Radio".

This is extremely powerful in Greater Manchester but is on 101.4.

I didn't mean my aerial is tuned to 87.9, just got tuned light ont wireless.. I only use lengths of 2x2 fixed together pmsl to get it higher than the house and screw it to 5ft fence post. It does get a bit blowy up ere so I take it down when it's stormy..I bet you get more unlicensed activity ont wireless than I do??

ahh makes sense now, guess so only because i’m closer, i’ve heard 9 pirates over the past few days so I guess thats good going. I used to live on a big hill signals would boom in there. thought thinking about it it hasn’t stopped anything, heard the odd london pirate now again, the strongest ones and heard a station from brimingham.

you could use a reflector behide your dipole get a boost what direction you where looking for. thought i had uk raw on my omidirectional aerial, first for me i’ve always had to use a reflector behide my dipole. would use it in bedroom, its bit stupid just having an aerial in a loft pointing south and there been mostly dead air most of the time.

That's a cracking idea radionortheast.. A reflector of some kind would make receiving a bit better... I shall have to look into that mate...Top man. :tup

Top stuff!
Yes I remember it well must've been 1998 maybe but the signal was nowhere near as good as it was this time. ;)

Does anyone know any contact details for this station?! Like email address or website...

There was such a good tune being played sunday evening 13/06 that I desperately need to find out what it was...
