So the applications are in when will they get there decision made ?
who you think will get them ?
Interesting to note that the application does not advertise a frequency for the stn to apply for the stn have to state where they will broadcast from and to what frequency and ofcom will test this for suitability
On that basis i would assume only about 4- 5 will be successful with the obvious stand out one being mi soul

I don't think mi soul will win because it's already on London wide DAB just shows how many people still want to be on fm with them applying? I hope house win

None of the above listed by the last post I hope? But I think krystal might get one because they were behind the old choice 969

No chance. They're all noise and no substance. It's more likely to be another minority ethnic station and will be a complete waste of space that will collapse after 6 months just like they all do. OFCOM pick poor candidates so they fail, which shows the politicians that community radio can't work!

I think you are probably right and this is not the first time starpiont have applied for a licence they went for Slough and Maidenhead in 1991 and also tried in 2010 in London also. I think the old choice fm people might have a chance?

Probably not. This will just be another example of the duplicity of OFCOM.

What you're saying is it more likely is rubbish stations will be chosen on purpose then?

Exactly. Underfunded, under prepared, un-listenable (have you ever listened to "Resonance"?). They WANT them to fail.
