You seem to think that you're the governing body of all the Pirates!
It's illicit statements like this that makes people jump on other peoples dials.
Winding your (radio)neck in a little wouldn't hurt me thinks!

No not me guv it's just how it is I'm no fan of Asian star 1016 Slough in fact I can't stand the thing but it is fact they always complain at what is wrong with pointing out that the 1017 less than 15 miles away is going to atract unwanted attention? And even worse Asian star want to be given 1066 so that they will get out further?

Found them on TuneIN over the weekend... seemed only to be live from 4-11pm on Sunday... rest seemed to be old set from months ago. When they were live didn't even give out a number to text the studio? So take what you want from that. Would Ofcom have got their usual studio number switched off?

Not sure that's the case with Flight, they seem to have had the same DJ's since 101.5 days. Looking who's on their, seems that once your on Flight you seem to stay there?
I think it's more of a consistency issue with them on FM, and their dial 101.7. Maybe the guys running it have not found anyone of the younger faces to take on the setting up of Flight.

That's it surely? Anyone on the westside of London using 101.7 generates complaints to ofcom quickly from the tedious thing from Slough 101.6 that has listeners almost into Southall?

Well they have been using 101.7 for ages over 3/4 years and when they were on, they didn't care of upsetting Asian Star... So I really think that is the case now to this day. They either don't have the man power to stick it on FM, lack of TX sites, or lack of commitment to the cause.

You are right mostly? Once a frequency is a definite no no you are always looking at endless problems? They only seem interested in removing stations on bad frequencys these days?

Doing well, got them most of the way along the A4 in to London today. Asian star only seems to start cutting them up towards Brentford and Hatton Cross.

Brentford and Hatton cross ? as far away from Slough as that no wonder I can't get it properly? I'm sure Asian star is using more power than they were allowed it's supposed to be in and around Slough not into West London aswell ?
