We apologise for any loss of signal. Unforseen technical issue after high winds on Sat and Sun night in the north west. We are aware of the issue.

That's because there's no swr protection to protect the rig.

Dead carrier on 87.9FM. No music playing but rig still on.
Maybe PC or Laptop crashing. Take everything off it that you don't need. See if that's any better stop it from crashing. Stay away Windows 7 mate. Windows 10 minimum. Linux is the daddy. Raspberry pi are good and small also fit in the rig etc.

brilliant to see ruby 87.7 taking full advantage of ofcom seasonal holidays.
great station with unique flavour. I can’t help but think that the superb engineer at base fm are a little bit involved?
