    Great to have you online!! But you’ve gone off now I’m typing this message – is that supposed to happen?
    Hope you come back when I press the send button!!!!

  2. Jay Pemberton says:

    Hey….just a quick note to let you know ‘Listen Live’ doesn’t work here for me. I get ‘Error #2032′, whatever that is.

  3. Rhona Macqueen says:

    Yaaaay!

  4. Bobby says:

    Back with a bang…well done you!

  5. Jay Pemberton says:

    Strange….now it only plays two to five seconds of whatever just went out.

  6. Steph Macaulay says:

    Hi, I would like to ask if you would play Take Thats Greatest Day for my best friend Carol Sprowl who has got me listening to Bute FM in Newcastle Upon Tyne and tell her that I am missing her lots.

    Thanks

    Steph

  9. Alan says:

    If you are only getting a short blast then it means that all the available “lines” are currently being used.
    There will be more info about this soon.

    • Jay Pemberton says:

      Good to know, as I’m still only getting the short excerpts too. Thanks for continuing to work on this. I can’t wait until the bugs are sorted and I can hear Bute FM properly here!

  10. Simon says:

    Great job BUTEFM !! Can listen OK with IE8 but it sounds badly distorted, any ideas ???

    • Jay Pemberton says:

      It’s very distorted for me too, listening with Safari. I doubt it’s this way going out on-air on Bute, or those hearing the station locally would be ringing up in droves.

      Rather, I think there’s a level control set wrong on the feed from the on-air mixer into whatever converts the audio signal into digital for the on-line stream. If they get it turned down about 12 dB it should be much better.

    Hey guys

    Trying to listen to the show but only getting a few seconds at a time. Is the problem going to be for a while? I noticed previous comments about it.

    Is there a listen again link so i can listen to the pheonix show later?

  12. George Martin says:

    Just listening to the show and we are really enjoying it. I left Rothesay in 1970 and it is good to familiar names and places. keep it up

  13. Gerry Cummins says:

    Is Graham Leonard as old as he sounds???? Love and kisses from us all.

    ANNOUNCEMENT: After a recent investigation into teething problems with our live streaming, which we launched after reports from our listeners, we have discovered that if you use the Mozilla Firefox browser you cannot listen to our live stream whereas… you can do so with Internet Explorer. This information has been passed on to our tech team. Thanks for your help.

    “Tuning in” from Sydney.
    Great Gran told me I need to tune my internet to 96.5FM.
    Great variety going on – between Nick-nack-paddy-whack, and I-t’ought-I-taw-a-puddy-cat.
    And the carrot cake sounds like it tastes fantastic!
    Keep up the good work :-)

    I’m listening in Cornwall right now…..
    Does anyone at the radio station go sea fishing around Bute?
    I’d like to know as I’m coming to stay for a week and wondered if I should bring my kayak and rods, do you require a licence to go sea fishing? What fish are there and the best tackle to use and where are the best spots? Any info would be gratefully received thanks.
