Seems like a lot of stations keep going off and staying off for quite a long time so has everyone finally packed it in and realised DAB is the future
Coming up to Ramadan lots of other legal stations pop up and all the pirates seem to dissappear is this another conspiracy to give more stations dials to corrupt the airwaves ?
Up the power and keep things alive in 2023

And in other places, most of the band is going to the dreaded GHR station.

dab is not as good as it says, ie. it's imposed! forced like force feeding a goose!

Maybe the government are handing out licenses to all these pirates , just to get them off the fm dial? I remember hearing a rumour over 20 years ago , that pirates were dead , because of everything that s switching to digital? Perhaps they are getting their way, by the pirates finally being able to afford a digital license. There is so much to choose from these days , Mixcloud, YouTube, fm , dab .. it all seems to be on demand these days . Oh how times have changed..:

Yes especially listen again you can choose your favourite djs on certain stations you want to listen to and avoid the shows you don't want to hear

On the car yes fm , but I listen these days at home on my phone to radio. How many people still use a radio at home I wonder?

And yes I have multiple fm radios throughout the house , but it’s easier to just open radio app or Mixcloud or whatever they are online and listen through my phone

Hello! The only time I've switched to FM recently is to listen to you guys! Your signal seems to be getting out a bit more lately. Has anything changed?

Heard very little on the M25 this week when going past.
I picked up a few on 87.5 , 95.1, and 106.5 the rest seem to be legal small stations I heard.

Are you the same people who were on 99.7 or is it a mixture from the station called intent and new people?
