update on Radio Merlin .We will be back on soon .We are off air due to security reasons.We will not be streaming over the internet any more as for the web site it was closed down as well .without any notice from weebly we believe the web site was closed down because it had links with our streams .I have tried to contact weebly but as of yet no luck .The web site has been up for years .On top of that our aerial came down so we are working on that as well ..We were reported over copy rights not sure yet if there will be any more action taken against us hope not as they say you can't get blood out of a stone

Sounds like Ofcom had nothing to do with it, this time.

It's just a load of attention seeking drama. He's been posting on every message board about being closed down.

Nothing to see here!

New subject.
My last report on 29 Jul 2020 that was the beginning of the thread,
had 320 views. Of course, those many views were for the 'off air' reason.

Normally, that thread should be moved to an other forum. Waiting for a while...

Okay, Ray.

Waiting for a while might well be the best thing to do.

And there will probably be another update e-mailed promptly from Paul Watt relevant to
his thoughts about his newly encountered difficulties.
