Sorry I was convinced you were linked to Base FM. I've been listening to the stream, sounds good, but like they're only just setting up again.
There has been a pirate audible on 100.8 for the last 2 nights (Fri & Sat), couldn't compare with the stream as hadn't read your post but it was playing hardcore which isn't quite Base FM's usual genre. Didn't listen long enough to hear any links or idents as was driving both times, but very weak in South Manchester apart from isolated pockets. Could be low power or further away. I know 3 or 4 people who could put something on 100.8 at relatively short notice but again, none of them would play hardcore, so we might have something new.

I was hoping it was going to be back on Sunday but nothing heard - I'll try again on Friday night if poss. There's been a lift on Band II recently but definitely not that.

Yeah i’ve tuned to 100.8 here sometimes hoping to hear something, there is some break through from heart, nothing heard though, also tuned to 87.5 and 87.9 hoping to hear something too, I keep meaning to look at shortwave, the frequencies on there often seem to change, better if their kept down on 6000khz its hard to get to 7000khz

I'll be making the same journeys tonight as I was last Friday so will listen out again. Some pirates do the "first/last weekend of the month" thing though so... we'll see. Will try tomorrow too. I doubt you'll hear BASE FM on shortwave any time soon however!
