88.2 just radio 2 from 88.1 & 88.3
92.4 is BBC3
95.3 is BBC Essex
96.7 has a strong BBC Kent
97.5 Heart to close to LBC to
105.1 is Southend
106.0 KMFM in East parts.
But these might be OK for West London.

90.4 was on . 93.0 still on. A lot of them frequencies won't work London-wide.

OK sorry I just thought you were out of London as there was another station I used to pick up strong on 93.0 and now it's a clear dial here. I've not picked up 90.4 for ages and all the other dials are clear at the moment.

Essex, Kent & SE London only

also 92.8 would be too close to Natural Vibez who are on 92.7 and they wouldnt like that in London being 1 next to them

I dont think Rude have given up just like that either just because they been off for a while dont mean its free, the amount of years they have been on for aswell, so I wouldn't class 88.2 as being empty either if they havnt stated that they have called it a day which im sure they havnt then they are still to do with 882

93.0 will never be allowed to last in London either because its to close to the speech based R4 worse than 908 and 886 no stations have ever been allowed to last on 93.0 it's as bad as using 97.1

Starpoint was on 93.0fm, it was in 2014 for about 9 months, hardly ever heard them go off air, then again they went off air for good start of last year so that could be why they went off for good

I wouldn't recommend it but I'd not say it's as bad as 97.1. The BBC have got it all covered ....just retune to 93.5.

Starpoint was a legal community station as far as I know so you wouldn't expect them to go off much... unless the 'daddy' was around..

Naah it was 100% pirate, Ofcom would never license another London station 0.2MHz away.

The only time starpoint had a legal fm license it was for the Windsor aria on 100.5 for a 17 day RSL in the summer of 1991 they were lucky to last a few months on 93 as a pirate again and they only lasted a while because for a while at the second half of 2014 there was a lull from Ofcom so 93 will never go that long again and yes 97.1 is worse but only slightly

That's interesting it was the same people and they came on for Windsor all the way back then. Now they're no longer running I'm wondering where Startpoing 93 was coming from? Was it west London?
