What I heard on mw the other day

Post by radionortheast » Sat Mar 22, 2025 2:19 pm

I had a quick listen with people talking about mw, I heard dance on 927 after 5 o clock, played adeva respect, faded back after the next song, radio blackbeard was there i had to wait around, sounds like alot of late 90’s dance/trance, would be better if the signal was clear, seems weird this coming over am, i’ve only ever known it come through my own fm transmitter back in that time. fmlover 1638 was a dutch pirate it played swinging on a star, some polka, heard rocking all over the world, it had a very warm feel to it, did transport you back to a time when Jeremy beadle was around. Lots of asian community stations around, more coming in after dark, there were foreign stations around before it got dark, with 540 and 549 been really strong, 549 played arrested development everyday people some foreign talking, there was radio scotland on 810, classical music on 630, with something under it with talking. talk radio is to remove some of its smaller relays, the main signal here on 1089 will be staying, aswell as 5 live on 909, the other talkie.
Musume radio was also there on 1503, played the full version original version of on the beach don’t know if that was by chris rear but banna’s there not long after 5 o clock, i suspect many areas of europe are under darkness. I had a listen the night before to 1575, just an oldies station, no dance, dance was coming through on a foreign station on 1593, I heard polka much lower in the band on 873, i don’t think it was a dutch station, i’ve heard they use low frequencies because the coverage is better, problalby why that station on 540 is using that frequency

Despite interference I can hear stuff below 1000khz better as local buzzzz interference drops off 927 has kind of pop dance in the noise here. Nothing too exciting happening. Could be coming from NW or SE on 927 too unclear for ID
The dial is Glowing 88-108 , spin the wheel to light those Red LEDs , see signal needle rise.

I’m quite lucky as we don’t have that many nieghtbours here, the only interference is from my own smps, I can null out on my pocket sangean. I though it might of been radio freedom derby on 927, could only hear the song that was playing, couldn't tell what the next song was. Odd frequency as its right next to moorside edge on 909, I do think 909 covers much of the north on 909. I think radio blackbeard is related to buzz fm, bit funny it is buzzing round on am :lol: definitely don't get clarity on am, low signal was alot of hum in the backround, its want they want to do.
