If Calon cannot provide what it says on the tin you have to take the other option don't you ?

You just have to "Rise above" that nonsense.

Don't dig in, check in! ��

Much rather Calon as I simply don't like the BBC in its entirety, would make my choice simpler if it was broadcast properly though ☺

Calon was totally unusable in Kiddermister. Is this a conspiracy designed to keep up BBC listener numbers?

It's all about Mark Griffiths for me.

Hopefully they'll have better reception this time and better half time tunes.

Yep.

I've had calon on twice now and I know they have problems. But I'm hoping they get it right.
They are local lads and a bit over enthusiastic, by that I mean you'd swear we had a shot on goal, but in reality we have just gone over the half way line. But as I said I'm wishing them well.
BBC south Wales have obviously kicked us into touch. I used to listen to the Rob Philips show on occasions, but no more and we should all boycott the show, no phone ins, no texts etc.

I assume calon FM presenters are unpaid, as opposed to the BBC crew.. connection problems or not, this expat is sticking with them!

Since the good old days of Marcher Sound we have been crying out for a local radio station that actually covers local sport especially our club. None of really want to tune into BBC 'South Wales' but at the moment there is no valid alternative option.

A bit like given the choice of a North Wales Ferrari or a South Wales Vauxhall Corsa - no competition really if only there was an actual engine in the Ferrari. Great - provided it works - but it doesn't (yet).
