The local ID's were firing as normal. It's obviously a problem with the feed.
Seems okay now. |

No problems on IRN 3. So any technical problems must've taken place locally. Bauer's City 1 stations get the show via IRN 3 at Key, and then send it out on their network feed which is used for their evening show/other networked shows. |

Thanks for these, you didn't manage to catch the local ID firing on the Bauer stations did you? I was trying to, but there wasn't one after I started recording.
The Hits went to Jess Glynne but my Viking 3 one didn't seem to (it was dead air up until the end of my recording) |

On my local capital it sounded like as if it was broadcasting through a fan for about 10 mins.

So Spire and the other UKDR Stations take IRN3 from Signal 1 then so that's why it didn,t affect the wireless group stations and some smaller stations then.

What do you mean by 'take IRN 3 from Signal 1'? Signal 1 (Wireless Group) are connected to the satellite feed from 11:00:00 AM - 3:56:30 PM for their network show, and IRN 3 switches over to Capital London at 3:57:00 PM ready for the chart. UKRD carry the Big Top 40 via the satellite, as do all other stations other than Heart & Capital who use IP like their other networked programs.

Ah I see, I just thought because of the Beaur problems on Sunday that other station's might get the sattalite signal from Signal 1 because not all stations were affected.

Yeah. Was obviously a problem with the IRN feed at Key 103 which led to the failure of the other Bauer stations, who get the show via their networking feed from Key.

I am at the Loughborough Christmas Light Switch On this afternoon (hosted by GEM 106 but not broadcasted on GEM 106). That means I am setting timers on my recordings this afternoon.
I will see if I can listen to GEM on my mobile phone about 4pm and see if I can record it at all (as a backup). Hope you can record IRN3 this afternoon. It will be a good listen if you can do it

The 21st February was annoying, as only the left channel of my receiver was working so I couldn't hear the producers talking and the pre-fading error. Have fun at the lights! |

As Capital are hosting their Jingle Bell Ball, Matt Wilkinson will take care of the chart next Sunday in for Marvin & Kat.

I will do my best to get it up and running ready to record, and I'll upload it to vocaroo so I can send a link out and show you how the satellite switches from Wireless Group just before 4PM over to Capital inc. Marvin's 1/2 mins and the start of the show.
