Apr 26th 2007 - BACK FOR A SECOND AIRING (East Grinstead Courier)

The town's airwaves are once again to resonate to the sound of Meridian FM.

The community radio station won another limited period licence and will be on the air until Saturday May 19 on the 87.7FM frequency.

Managing Director of the non-profit making station, Lee Quinn, said: "We have a better idea of what we are doing this time. Any project when you start it from scratch is difficult. The experience of our first RSL [restricted service licence] has set us up well."

Mr Quinn said another 14 presenters have joined for the spring run and will help the station broadcast 24-hours-a-day. The programme schedule has also been given a shake up and is significantly altered from the first broadcasting period.
