London FM Pirates Scan

[SD-E1102]

88.6 Appears to be House FM - I wonder if B2B are still on?

[famefm]

Really? I have left the London area now 886 is where house fm started? I think the 2 stations have been linked all the time because when house first took 100.3 ten years ago now they used 886 at the same time for about 5 months the back2back first came on early 2011 and I am sure it was exactly the same rig as for 1003 I think later it became a problem for house? And I think it's almost 2 years ago they last used it?

B2B was definitely on 88.6 a few days ago, I heard Back 2 Back said in the adverts

Thank you its been over 2 months I have left and house fm was one of the few stations I heard all the way through their fm days 9 years on 886 and about 8 on 1003 but as the years went on 100.3 just seemed to get weaker and weaker and the B2B signal recently was far better

It's still there tonight - I'll make sure they're both on the bandscan for now in case they're relaying each other at certain times etc.

I was staying in a hotel in a different area of London each day (nw, ne, se, sw). This is just what I observed on my portable while I was out and about through the city, and also through scans on my regular radio once settled into the hotel.

One thing I'll say about the place is that an english breakfast in London is nothing compared to it up north!

Yeah they are twice the price and half the size.
