Re: The worst frequency dials??
It use to be the lower dials. Are them 2 stations on 94.4 still battling out together ? If so id say that Street Fm and Flames wasnt it ? And 98.3fm is another 1 that has 2 on it. I can remember a time when you had Funky on 87.5, Playback & another station on 87.6, some Dubstep station on 87.7, Shine on 87.9, Pulse just started out on 88.0 and amongst all that malarki you also has the 2 summertime RSL Ramalamadam stations on 877 and 879

Its hard to say as some frequencies are ok to use depending what part of London. You could get away with using frequencies if you run less power.

What's up with 94.0? If you're gonna say Oxford I don't think it affects it too badly inner London.famefm wrote:97.1 91.8 94.0 98.3 99.5 99.6

You'll be surprised even till you get to London past Chiswick it's not that good maybe all the 94 fms have been on the eastside? It's good for inner London not London wide 1068 and 1073 get out better and they are officially only community stations

I forgot 97.5 can't remember the last plonkers to try that one? but 97.1 still takes it because crapital Xtra could complain as well being only.2 to the left as well on 96.9 ( what a waste of a license that is an all

Re: The worst frequency dials??
My transmitter can go way below 87.5 but I bet not many radios would pick it up though the Tecsuns would.

Re: The worst frequency dials??
That's the best place for some of these stations stick them on the taxi and aeroplane bands instead or 108.9.
Re: The worst frequency dials??
Would have to say 105.6fm and 106.00 are pretty bad. Both stations that are/were on these (playback and xposed beatz) get a battering from the legals .2 mhz away even though they are nearby to me lol Also 99.7 and 99.8, thats not a good arrangement effectively cancelling each other out..
Think we need a bigger dial or the legals to sod off

99.7 and 99.8 were a right mess in central a few months ago but Flex is much weaker at the moment and 99.8 much stronger in central London.

No need to mention 89.6 anymore even the thickest people have probably got the message that there is a community station on their and is more powerful than Hayes fm and I don't think anyone has tried it since citylock moved from 89.6 to 894 about 2 years ago

There was talk a few years ago about freeing up the fm down to 76.0 MHz but don't know anymore details maybe because because it would mean buying and making different radio,s

That Golden Ghana thing that came on 89.6 very recently is off already.famefm wrote:No need to mention 89.6 anymore even the thickest people have probably got the message that there is a community station on their and is more powerful than Hayes fm and I don't think anyone has tried it since citylock moved from 89.6 to 894 about 2 years ago
