On the Boundary of this RSL's reception area

RSL Boundary Sound from Newark, Nottinghamshire, heard tonight on 87.9 FM.


First noted in Whitwell, with a listenable signal while parked up but which soon became unstable when I started moving.

Boundary Sound's coverage in the Clowne area is weak (as can be expected), but also rather unusual. Reception in relatively low locations (eg parts of Whitwell) is often better than in higher locations (such as Bolsover and Hickenwood Lane, Clowne).


In Leeds, both Radio Frequency 88.1 and Fresh FM 95.6 noted. Both with RDS (Radio Frequency's RDS is scrolling).

Driving along the Redroad

Checking Redroad FM 87.7's coverage on my way to work, a good signal was present on the M1 as far as junction 32, then along the M18 as far as junction 2 (the exit to the A1).

At this point, the signal drastically weakened and reception became intermittent. On and off, a signal could still be recognised as Redroad FM north of Doncaster.

On high ground to the East of Kippax (near Strikes garden centre), a signal can be heard on 87.7 with a listenable signal. The format and music played seems consistent with that of Redroad FM.

Audible with a moderate signal as far south as Clowne.
