Blackpool here I come

My journey to Blackpool today took me over the Pennines on the M62. Despite having hills on both sides, radio reception was at times really good; RTE 2 FM from Eire was noted on a number of frequencies, probably the strongest being 91.8 FM (possibly from Mount Leinster)

Also audible on the M62 was BBC Radio Cymru on 104.3, from Llangollen in north Wales. Then again, I remember hearing this in Clowne back in the 1990's. Llangollen is an excellent location; I vaguely remember visiting the site back in 1992, when I used to work for BBC Transmission (which was later privatised), and was impressed by the view :-)

But before joining the M62, my journey took me through Halifax. Near here, on 87.7, I heard a Radio Ramadan (not the one from Sheffield). This had RDS = RAMADAN

I'm here in Blackpool until Sunday 28th.

But enough blogging for now, I'm off to explore Blackpool :-)
