Were on the MOVE!!! - IMPORTANT!
Greetings all,
and first off let me begin by thanking each and everyone of you for your continued support towards the station, this past weekend we celebrated 1
year on air, and it would not have been possible without you guys supporting your local metal and rock station... so a Big thanks to all of you!
Now down to business.. we have been aware of an issue for a while now that could possibly cause us a problem in the future. We have found ourselves
extremely close to another station, on a frequency that we did not see on the initial bandscan we carried out over 1 year ago during testing and
setup, however further investigation has prompted us to move away from 99.9MHz for fear of causing nuisance to this broadcaster.. we have had a full
year on 99.9MHz and it feels like our home, but in order for us to continue we will be relocating to 99.7MHz from the weekend of March
13th/14th/15th... Yes that Friday the 13th.. kinda fitting dont you think? so please do spread the word that from that weekend forward we will no
longer be on 99.9MHz in Waterford but instead will be in 99.7MHz
Please spread the word!!
Cheers - Phil T and the whole MHFM Crew

New Frequency 99.7MHz - By: MetalHertz FM on Fri 06 Mar 2009
Hi There, after much testing and examining of available frequencies in the Waterford area it has been decided to go ahead with the move on Friday the
13th of March to our new frequency of 99.7MHz FM. Fortunately thats not too far from our original freq (99.9MHz). We felt that moving all the way to
the top of the band was unnecessary when their was availability on 99.7MHz making it much easier for our regular listeners to find us.. we have run
testing to make sure that we are causing no problems with the transmissions 0.4MHz above us and 0.5MHz Below us.. while also respecting the
possibility of harmonics caused to stations 10.7MHz above and below us of which we are clear in Waterford. So with all this in mind MetalHertz FM are
going ahead with the move to 99.7MHz on March 13th, Thank you for your time in reading this and please do forward this on to anyone you think might
want to know about the move. Also thank you for your patience while we have been testing.
Phil

It's not a newfangled word 
You ever watch those over the top adds with those men talking at the camera trying to sell you stuff and the running gag is always that ping in their
smile? You see it characterised in the simpsons with Troy MacLeur etc when he's in a headshot.
Hence the two "*" things to denote action
this was very complicated john!!!!!
