An underestimated station
Just picked up playback uk crystal clear in Bedfordshire.Was very impressed with there power there pushing.How long have they been about.Don't get the reckonison it deserves that's my opinion. Got to say gets out a lot better than raw uk did when they first came on.The only station I can now pick up.

Not the greatest of dials really sandwiched in between Absolute and Magic
Re: An underestimated station
The freq doesn't work well if your local to them on a standard tuner, due to the legals giving them a battering but they will get out well due to height asl.

Re: An underestimated station
Lips FM is one of the worst ever names for a station to date. It sounds almost as ridiculous as 'Don't Test'.

It's a legacy thing, a bit like the save button in pretty much every piece of software being a floppy disk. It's not something that will happen in the future.Effemm wrote:Be grateful we aint followed the u.s way of radio names tho' ! WK this , WB that, ffs wots all that about

What is the point of using an existing name?
