London Calling.

[Andy Richards]

Fairly poor conditions this weekend.
A lot of stations fading right out and then back in and some deep and rapid fading when stations were "In".
The 6240 UNID has anounced itself as Focus International.Good strong signals most of the time and quite
lengthy test transmissions.Sounds like a UK or Irish station but maybe not.
Orion were as strong as usual this morning but the signal faded down here after 0800.
I didn't quite catch the name of the station on 6205 but he sounded a lot like Spaceman to me.......
I don't think we should be logging The Bogusman and The Ghoul under those names any more.
Maybe it should be Different Radio from now on as they are both doing regular programmes now.
Has anyone else noticed that their music format is becoming more "Accessible",in the sense that it is no longer
all "Indie Rock"?I think it makes the music played more interesting.In any case,I think most of us listen to this
station to hear what is said and music is just an added bonus.
The strongest signals of the weekend with me were Skyline and Geronimo.Closely followed by Bogus/Ghoul.
Focus,Black Bandit,Orion & Tower were strong too.
