101.4 Silent Carrier

Post by FMVETERAN » Thu Jun 22, 2017 4:43 pm

Anyone else picking this up? Very weak silent carrier on 101.4 in North London. Also noticed both pirates on 101.3 & 101.5 are off. Could it be a test transmission from one of the latest community offerings?

I doubt it! Think the Ramadan RSL is still on 101.4.

It got to be the foreign rap/hip hop station, they've still got the antenna on the block and signal was end stop as I drove to work! Don't know what they are using power wise but it was taken in out the Ramadan RSL around Feltham way considering that RSL is in Hounslow or so it states.

So much for all the people who thought it was going to flex but still odd as last time round 101.4 was for West London

Unless this is a temporary 4 week RSL first. But they definitely are the licence winner for that area

Couldn't find anything about it on Google apart from this regarding last year's 28 day RSL spin...

Surprised the Greenwich legal got 101.4 as it's a tad close to kmfm on 101.6.

Where is the KMFM 101.6 MHz site? As I recall, it's the filler for the Weald, going southwards from Sevenoaks, so there shouldn't be any interference problems.

I just found out that it's only a temporary 28 days before it starts full time and probably won't be 101.4 when it's full time next year witch makes sense now because I am sure one of the west London community stations will be 101.4 and hopefully not the samalian station coming for Fulham and Hammersmith
