885628 2010-05-17 10:48:00 I think the radio stations have a 20 year lease on their frequencies. After that the Government puts the frequencies up for tender again for another 20 years. Thats how I understand it to work. rebels181 (14841)
885629 2010-05-17 10:58:00 could well be because there has been some cross talk between the stations ie interference, too many stations close to each other within range of each other.
bump the channels and transmitting power around a bit to get them to slot in together without interfering with each other.
