A good signal from Radio Merlin International, listening in central UK on a portable.

Also a fine selection of tunes, many of which are rarely, if ever, played on the legal UK stations.

It takes unrestricted enthusiasts to put on a good station. 30W well used!

We had all sorts of problems this morning the tx kept blowing fuses ,so we had to use the small 10 watt tx when jackie was on,then we could only run 30 watts with the big tx .So thanks very much for your comments it makes it worth doing glad you like the music
cheers
