just heard Carousell 80s on that Airspy SDR server network the northwest SDR, its stronger then classic fm 101.1, i couldn't hear it on my receiver tho, i'm hearing someone playing Radio Caroline on 101.4 instead.
The Radio Caroline relay on 101.4 was a relay from Radio Overdrive.

finally there is something on fm in west yorkshire that is not owned by bauer, global or the bbc.
greatest sh*ts radio has completely taken over in west yorkshire, here is how many copies of it are on fm
it is on
96.3
97.2
102.0
102.2
104.7
106.8
107.1
the 96.3 and 106.8 are both greatest sh*ts radio west yorkshire, they should not have 2 frequencies with the exact same thing on it

the Wakefield receiver seems to be the best radio in the world, it can receive a station from France on 98.0 and it can receive smooth radio east midlands

I do sort of agree, don't think 106.8 will get closed down, think they moved the transmitter a while ago it was on a farm outside the city, the transmitter could be picked up on the coast with the frequency been so uber clear. I might listen to the receiver if it is in Wakefield, I do get Klara here weakly on 90.4/89.5, no french culture.
Smooth radio also makes a mess of 106.6, doubt they'll turn it off, bcb dosen't make it out of Bradford, not that theres much to listen on it, we might get into trouble this is not about Manchester.

the receiver has managed to get the pi code for the station in france, this radio is even better than a car stereo

it does receive well he must live on a hill or something. BTW i can get smooth Radio 105.7 and 106.6 But it does interfere with north Manchester community radio on 106.6.

^^ I was kind of wondering if that had been recorded in Wakefield, it is a really good receiver anyway
