Radio Merlin Int closes down (Bummer)
« on: June 20, 2015, 2103 UTC »
A message on Radio Merlin International's
 Facebook page:

"Due to reasons beyond our control Radio Merlin International has now closed down. Thanks for all your support over the years and the many reports over the years, and your friendship. We will sadly miss being on the air. Thanks once again for tuning into us. Paul Watt."

In the comments he adds that they lost the transmitter site and ran out places for the aerial.

Very sad news as RMI brought a good and varied choice of music to 48 metres. :(

This is more then a bummer to loose Paul with RMI on 48m.
It is always a bad thing if some idiot compromises a TX site.

Let's hope he's going to be back one of these days.
Hang in there Paul,time will work for you.
