Heard Garage playing on 94.2 recently, strong in West London. Audio was poor and sounded like a DJ EZ Pure Garage CD on a loop. Is this Divine 97.9 now moved?

That's probably the 10kW transmitter at Bowbrick Hill near Milton Keynes, gets out a very long way and I can hear it down here on the west Sussex coast even with the super-strong BBC Radio 4 on 92.9.

I have noticed myself and i know of people that have to that a lot of stations that were getting out well are now not as powerful as they once were, maybe they aint pushing the power because of Ofcom these stations, you look at Raw Uk and others that are targets for ofcom because teir power use to be ridiculous.
