It was the same people I spoke to them on the day they closed as a pirate in December 1990 and hoped to apply for a London license and found out nothing was going to happen for another 5 years so they got the first rsl they could and they were broadcasting from the old safari park before it became LEGOLAND, and they were from crystal palace as pirates

May I ask if a station has been off for a month or so how long would you give it before you can use that frequency ?

People should contact that station that was on that freq i reckon you never whats happened a station might of had a raid and are aiming to come back 1day but not for a while so stations who dont give a fuck and new stations unexperienced in radio would jump on that dial within a few weeks then wonder why they are getting their rigs switched off and getting angry phone calls.

88.2 will be back on very soon. Very reliable source too. So not really a free dial so bandwagon jumpers can sit down.. lol

Other priorities come first sometime in life.

105.1
106.0
108.0

90.4 & 91.6 are not clear frequencies for pirates as 90.4 is whoa fm & 91.6 is genesis fm
to my knowledge both of these stations will be back on sooner than you think.

as for the rest of the other dials good luck to anyone wishing to try a thing probably won't last till summer but hey it's how the game goes.

Oh right, the reason I thought Starpoint was a legal is I did find a ofcom application at the time they come on, it said they were planning to use the same site as Reprezent. Explains why I found them in a different place lol

Did Reprezent do any RSL's before launching or did they just spring up out of nowhere?

Reprezent didnt have a good start in the community radio world. The site they used got broken into and they lost a transmitter (think it was two" cant remember now??) down to poor security. "Mainly a FB padlock".

Also heard they lost a computer with a couple of thousands of tracks due to Virus and didnt have a copy of it.
