UNDAVYBE 106mhz Whitley bay
Went to see some friends in Whitley bay and while in the sea front car park done bandscan see what I could pick up from across the sea and could just here music on 106mhz thought it was a car MP3 transmitter as it was so weak drove outside Whitley and it got better even got RDS saying UNDAVYBE and sometimes it sounded in stereo playing garage tracks but no mixing drove towards Newcsatle city centre but lost it on the outskirts so it's not coming from that way anyone know how long its been going?

Now that's interesting as I picked something up on 106 playing Garage when I parked up near South Shields.

Interesting indeed.

Re: UNDAVYBE 106mhz Whitley bay
I initially read the station name as Un-Davy-Be (assuming it was some kind of jibe against someone called Davy B) but now I see it is Unda-Vybe. ![Confused :?](./images/smilies/icon_e_confused.gif)

I have no clue about the RDS name, but Unda-Vybe kinda makes sense, though still practically unreadable in ALL CAPS and with no spacing.
Whatever this station is I hope they get a good run, the north is practically owned by Bauer/Global shite.
FM for lyfe!

Maybe the station owner bought that BW RDS and couldn't change the PS script!
