Is 88.2 still silent this morning? I've got 88, 88.4 and 87.7 coming in via tropo here, with an unusual signal on 88.2 covering up a weak radio 2. It looks like a dead carrier to me.

Yep.

I have to admit, 87.7 is barely there, but I could match it to the stream so it's deffo IHR.

88.2 has Radio 2 in the background, but there's a strong line in the middle on the SDR waterfall which isn't always there, fades in and out, so could be the silent carrier.
