To be honest I did think this but the way Teckniqs wrote the post on the previous page (no criticism by the way Teckniqs!) meant that I had to ask the question just to be sure of it in case I had missed something a few years ago.

So where was the Kool connection with that Donttest thing a few years ago then? Was Kool on or relayed on 98.3 at one point a few years then? As I only ever listened to them on 94.6 when I lived in London when they were on (In the 90's, 00's & some of the 10's).

I am only going by the Chinese whispers I've heard.

Sorry for any confusion.
Around this time in 2015 a station came on 98.3 with the RDS displaying DONTTEST and the frequency was 98.300 MHz.
As far as I could tell it was never live and they/he was even playing recordings of Res 104.4, but anyway enough about Res 104.4 before I cause any more confusion about frequencies.

This DONTTEST thing was probably on a month or so (on 98.300MHz) and then it went off.

And then a very short time later Kool FM 94.600 MHz appeared at the same site using a directional dipole facing London and lasted for a few months.

And now this NRG Live thing seems to be coming from the same location and was set up by the same person 'nrglive' whose name I won't mention.

If you want this removed from the forum you've only gotta ask and the posts will be removed...

Wrong.
Here it is being received on a Broadcast Whorehouse RBRX1 receiver using a Triax 8 element FM beam in Bracknell, Berkshire.
.....you even know the person who this tuner belongs to, Mr. famefm. :tup

Fair do's Tec. I took your previous post as they used/switched dials with eachover & not actual sites. Thanks for clearing that up :tup

I do remember hearing that Donttest thing around 2015 in Croydon playing what I can only describe as squat party music! Not my kind of thing but was refreshing to have something different on the dial at the time.

Yeah RJR were confined to about a 2 to 3 mile radius when that came on, and probably down to about a 4 to 5 mile radius this time round. :whistle
