More stations go from Leeds dab

Post by radionortheast » Thu May 01, 2025 9:35 am

Mighty is gone too, pretty sure this was based in Leeds too, marefa and sangam are gone, wonder what when on. I’m pretty sure there was a station called juice on there, think it used to be a liverpool station but long since gone too, obviously fresh and fever are long gone too. (almost put the title of this as bum beads dab though I better not :lol: )

Don’t know what the jingles were for mighty fm but its good name, they should be a deep voice ‘Mighty fm’ the name slightly old hat though, reminds me too much of mighty mouse, power rangers. The big fm was always the best, it could never be little 8-)

Is this because they've moved to using DAB+ or have cleared off altogether? I'm still using an old Sony radio that doesn't do DAB+ so when a station disappears I never know if it's because it's died or just upgraded!

I could get a new radio, I know, but there's not much I can bear to listen to on there outside of the BBC National MUX anyway; once that moves to DAB+ then I might have to think about it.

i’m not so sure its to do with dab +, radios here like my roberts solar dab are dab + enabled, likely they’ve not paid the fee’s, station name is there but no audio, april is the end of the financial year so maybe something going on there, odd a number have gone. Did seem to be doing quite well, there is desire for these stations in leeds, good for people there commuting a short distance who would likely still beable to get it in the car would be useable if they wanted to listen to LDC or something.
mgr is gone too, think this was some eastern european station
