1206am Dublin is on again this weekend (today Saturday anyway). I don't think it was on at all last weekend but I could be wrong.

Listening to a station on 6265 KHz (Shortwave) at the moment ID'ing as "Radio Cuckoo". Seems (based on music/presenters accent) to be coming from Ireland. Anyone know more about this station ?

Also on SW Weekend Music Radio (from Scotland) seem to be pretty regular these days on 6290 KHz

Anyone know if FreeDAB/SaorDAB have definitely called it a day ? They didn't seem to be around during my most recent excursions via Sligo and Dundalk.
Someone said sometime ago they tried 1188kHz (253m) , a frequency which 'Persona Non Grata' would no doubt relate has significant 'history' in the now distant past in Dublin.
It was used by Radio Dublin ("253" was a big part of their brand identity) from the mid 1970's until c.1992/93

RTE used it for a while for their Cork local service and Radio Caroline used it (more accurately 1187 KHz) for various spells in the 1960's and 70's
