I heard it the week before Christmas when it was only running 7kw, As 1386 is a reasonably clear frequency the audio was very good but the signal was weak and faded a lot as you would expect,
Over Christmas they said they had increased power to 50kw but i forgot to listen so cant comment,
Charlie Davy (Ex Big L ) has joined the station.
No they're not. That directory entry was wrong and it's now been amended.
There was some fading but mostly listenable. Good considering the distance from Lithuania.
I assume this was 50kw as thats what they had planned.
According to the website, http://www.pipelineradio.org/
They are reverting back to the 7kw tx, Whether this will be a permanent arrangement or the 50kw will be used again i have no idea,
A word of WARNING, Every time i access the website i get a TROJAN HORSE warning from my virus software, Luckily it blocks it before it can be installed.
I picked up a trojan too & my virus software got rid of it but at the time I wasnt sure whether I picked it up from there or the previous site I looked at.
Definately worth heeding the warning!
Pipeline Radio is owned and operated by Scandinavian Media Ltd a uk firm with Norwegian Routes.
50kw service will come sometime next year, at the moment i guess we are resting from Christmas.

Pipeline Radio is a professional run station that has the money and where for all to buy a Uk Licence, but the company as a whole is NOT interested in broadcasting to the United Kingdom.
The united kingdom does not serve any part of the future plans, the radio system in UK is wrong and why should one company such as GCap run all the licences? or wireless group or Local radio group... It does not give the smaller man down the street a chance, its like shopping in Tesco's or Asda would you like the small shops or the BIG tesco out of town job....
I know which one i would like....
Pipeline does not broadcast to the UK or use a UK market place, the station wants one europe for all and to be part of europe and not run by the united kingdom.'
Europe is bigger than England as a nation and has more to offer as one, having lived and worked there myself for 3 or more years.
Mike we have booked now a 25 week contract and a few specials on 100KW, when they will run will be said on the website:)
shortwave is due to start in Feb06 with a return to sky in the very near future.
The hacker is known and has been reported to the Durham Police Dept England.
It can be a pain when we feel the need to run an unscheduled virus scan and it is nice to know that Pipeline takes the problem seriously.
Good to hear about the forthcoming 100kW and good luck for the station. I will certainly be listening out for it.
I appreciate that Pipeline is not aimed specifically at the U.K. but its always good to hear stations that are independent and different from what we have here!
