And now for some sad news about radio merlin, Due to the loss of our tx site this morning Radio merlin has been forced to close down. Not sure if any other action will be taken against the station after nearly 9 years of using our tx site it is no more .I wish to thank everyone that has written in and that has tuned into us over the years many thanks so its good bye from us all here at merlin 73s paul watt

I was woken up this morning at 7:00 by the local council all so my landlord asking about the aerial ,and was told I had to take it down strieght away and it would be reported, the Transmitters have been moved, also all of the studio into a safe place .Ther are about 6 people still at out tx site .will let you know more as soon as we can

Sad news, I haven't heard them in a few years, but they, like Laser Hot Hits, were pretty reliable here in the Eastern Mass. area. Good luck, hopefully no fines.
