I was driving around Manchester this weekend but heard nothing on any of the frequencies 87.5, 87.7, 100.8, 101.4. Maybe others had better luck

Overdrive was on for a very short time but due to technical difficulties, it switched off part way through

I don’t get Overdrive till I drive into Cheshire , this thread is for Manchester. But I know you have some people who have heard you but I really struggle and I wouldn’t say I’ve got bad car stereo , it is fairly strong once I get south of Appleton, I’ve never been able to get you at Manchester airport. No dis respect of course.

Was getting something on 101.4 as I drove down the m60 but it wasn’t on long and had some sound issues, wasn’t overdrive i’m betting it was Carousell but the RDS was empty so all i’m going off is the 80s music, as I was driving couldn’t switch on any web stream to check. Not like them to have sound issues

Not heard 101.5 over this way.Will listen out on that frequency.Normally stations from Ireland come in 101.4.
Not heard anything on 105.0 for a while.Been a few stations on that freq this year.
Look forward to hearing Wk-End soon all being well.
