More Ramadan RSL's

The Asian RSL audible near Leeds on 87.7, was tonight ID'd as Ramzan Radio from Leeds. Near junction 42 of the M1, signal was strong enough to read RDS = RAMZAN , although signal in east Leeds is very weak. This implies that Ramzan Radio from Leeds is from south Leeds, and either low powered or in a poor location - especially since, soon after junction 41, Ramadan Radio Sheffield was already competing for the frequency.

Also on-air in Leeds were the pirates Fresh FM 95.6 and Peoples FM 104.5

Also audible down the M1, from Leeds to the Woodall service station (not far from Clowne), was Radio Ramadan Bradford on 87.9 - although covering such a wide area, signal down the M1 was never strong enough for the RDS to be readable.

As for Radio Ramadan Sheffield ... near Barnsley on the M1, and also in Bolsover (near Clowne), the signal was strong enough for the RDS to be readable. Was also clearly audible in Whitwell. Appropriately, one of their jingles is "From the mountains of Mecca to the hills of Sheffield, this is Radio Ramadan" ... well, I don't know about the mountains of Mecca, but I suspect their TX may well be located on one of the hills of Sheffield!
