Has House FM stopped the FM now and just called House? :)

...As far as I'm aware since Rinse left 100.4 and House FM jumped on 100.3, so that makes 100.2 and 100.4 no go dials.

And House FM could come back any time

Yeah about 5w ERP maximum going by the lack of signal

Appauling choice of dial! Surely unless you're very local to the TX (maybe this lot are just happy to play Luck & Neat CD's on autopilot to their mates on the ends?) this will get wiped out by Kiss anywhere you are in London? Also any hint of overmodding & I'd imagine someone from Bauer or Kiss will be straight on the phone to Ofcom?! Doesn't seem a clever move to me.

The House FM question also remains - Are they off the FM/online only for good now or are they planning a return to the FM at some point? They were actually quite a decent listen & got out pretty well on 100.3.

Surely the house fm 100.3 surely out of the picture now over a year now so how long do u wait before a freq is used again , another example 94.6 ??

Barely getting these on 100.2 but 0.2 away from kiss should be enough , I get 99.8 crystal - granted they based not far from me

Fair question/point actually. Is there a rule of thumb/pirate code of conduct for this sort of thing? A year off does seem to be a very long time! (noticed that Kool have been off forever now but have still been streaming online). Maybe House & Kool aren't fussed by being off the dial as they still get a decent number of listeners online & being off the dial hasn't had a negative impact in that way. Wonder if them both being off for so long is a coincedence as I swear these stations used to share a block a few years ago (don't know if this was still the case recently) - remember seeing a very familiar block in a certain part of London a few years back with 2 twin stacks tied B2B with eachover & when one station was off so was the other & when one station came back on the other one also came back on at exactly the same time.

I don't think house will use 100.3 again because I heard they only reluctantly came back again in September 18 and lasted for a few months and have been looking to go legal for a while now and applied for a licence in the same round that the 4 licenses were given out (the same round that flex won)

That was Kool and Rinse, think that was from the Wapping site.

There was cooperation between House & Kool. If there is no rig on it's not a proper station. Online obscurity will take hold

Yes that's the one! And yes, you're right it was Rinse & not House Kool were sharing with. Both stations were on 100.3, hence the confusion!

Rinse was actually on 100.4 when they did that aerial with Kool

Oh yeah, this was around the mid 2000's & True were on 100.2 at the time.

That's right, and as far as I was made aware True 100.2 was a lot closer to the Rinse cru than just 0.2Mhz away
