87.5?

Post by Twista UK » Tue Nov 14, 2017 4:38 pm

Anyone know what's going on with 87.5? Why is no one using it any more? Has something happened?

I know Live875 took Raw's dial so they moved to 99.7 but both of them are off air.

I was saying to a mate fairly recently, mad how a few years ago there were loads of stations battling it out on 87.5, now nothing.

So what happened to being on 99.7 ? ?

Why do people insist on using anywhere from 87.5 to 87.9 I hear more and more ipod/itrip/ibluetooth transmitter on these frequencies. Yes they only do a few feet but when you get stuck in traffic or at the lights this comes up I go elsewhere.

Once I was on a job from Heathrow to Hammersmith and the car nearby was heading in the same way and any pirate would of mis mash with that going on!

I heard satnavs, external DAB that retransmits it to FM, people personal phone calls and crap mp3's.

87.5 ain't what it use to be with this interference now days!

Good point probably why I thought I was picking up new pirate stations especially on 87.5 and 6 when it was very small car booster signals the drivers where listening to

Didn't Raw get raided recently before they were even on air? Will it be back on 87.5 or 99.7?

Something has been on 87.6 playing continuous Music late at night. I thought it was an iTrip at first, but noticed it goes a good few miles.

Lol good one mate I havn't laughed so much in ages. So did they get there 10k back of flex fm? Or was that another loss? Raw hasn't had a run for two years pal give up mate its really embarrassing now. You got bullied for 87.5 by a station that played cds! They just took the dial and you done nothing? Then flex robbed you for 10k you been of air two years now the hype is well over pal just call it a day and save what little pride that station has left, and remember the good memories. Some things are better left in the past after all

I don't think it will be back on 87.5 something always seems to go wrong with this frequency these days
