Nice to catch Rage 100.6, while driving north on the M5. No rds, but guess it’s them?

Had them till about 2miles from the Bridgewater junction. :smoke

Is this a legal? Or a very professional looking pirate.

Don’t think their fm tx is on as regular as it used to be, due to some busy body dobbing them into ofcom.

Yep, it was them. They are only occsionally on now due to the problems with local community stations which include calling Ofcom and even sabbotage!

Guess this is on more frequent now. Had dead carrier in the week and d&b when driving north over the weekend. Think coverage area has changed, more to the south. :smoke

Good coverage today when driving south on the M5.

Strong from 2 miles north of Taunton J, to past Tiverton Junction, Devon.

Is the audio on their stream link same as the FM ? They have a few different links to try on their site.

Makes a change, no voices heard yet just tunes.

Mostly, from what I can tell when I go down there for a listen to the FM.

Wondered why I did not rx on the way home.

From their Facebook: Had equipment broken over the holiday and theft New Year's Eve. That's why it's off.

Surprised to hear a rural pirate having these sorts of problems!

Not sure how long they have been back - but getting Rage on 101.4fm - solid signal on M5.
