Another Hajj RSL

Another Asian RSL, Hajj FM from Bradford, was heard this evening near Garforth on 87.9

Weak but listenable signal in Garforth, no RDS noted

Heard south down the A1 and onto the M18, as was Huddersfield's Radio Hajj 87.7

Leeds based RSL Akash FM 99.9 was heard as far south as Doncaster, but was experiencing 'splashover' from Kingston ILR KCFM on 99.8

Also this evening, Leeds pirate Fresh FM 95.6 had returned. Peoples FM 104.5 and Radio Frequency 88.1 also on-air, the latter being heard almost as far as Clowne!

Hajj FM 87.9 Bradford

Today and yesterday I heard an Asian station on 87.9 FM.

This morning, I heard the station announce as Hajj FM from Bradford, broadcasting to Muslims in Bradford and across West Yorkshire.

Signal in Kippax, near Leeds, is weak but listenable. No RDS or stereo was received though.


Tonight, I left the Kippax area later than average - approx 18:45, in fact - after the work Xmas dinner. As a result, I heard Fresh FM 95.6 on-air (wasn't on air at 16:00), implying they broadcast each evening with longer broadcasting times at weekends.


Heard Bounce FM 88.0 on the way home. Quite strong signal where the M18 meets the M1 at junction 32, which seems to confirm my suspicions that Bounce FM is from the Sheffield area.
Mono only, no RDS. Signal still audible as far as Clowne.
