@patterfloof @philpem and sometimes you can even search articles cross-site I’ve noticed. Makes me think a lot are even running on the same host/DB.
@ret @patterfloof Most of them are owned by the same company. There aren't many truly independent local papers left.
@philpem @ret @patterfloof Sounds an awful lot like how most "local" radio stations are owned by Bauer or Global.
@ret @philpem @patterfloof Thankfully there's a good number of community stations where I live and that's pretty much all I listen to when driving.
@philpem @ret @patterfloof I'm pretty sure you should be able to get LDC from where you are; I can just pick it up at ground level.
I'd like to get a DAB and FM antennas on the roof for maximum coverage. :)
@philpem @renbymon @patterfloof rather listen to Manchester airport ATIS than commercial radio
@ret @renbymon @patterfloof I probably shouldn't admit this but I have Leeds-Bradford ATIS saved on my ham rig...
This is information Bravo...
@philpem @renbymon @patterfloof I miss listening to Manchester air band (and just generally all the various bits of traffic around the city) as a student.
@renbymon @ret @patterfloof I should hook up the rooftop FM aerial again and see what I can pick up... might be more interesting than Radio 2
