Donald Trumps Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 Unless you're a large product supplier, they're only really needed for blogging these days & possibly best for SEO purposes to buy a domain name through your blogging software provider (where possible) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you do start up may I suggest Craggy’s Open Community Kaleidoscope. COCKradio will generate you a lot of attention. It would appear someone beat you to it www.cockfmradio.com 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only radio is measured by this yard of booze everyone else uses real data. The fact is you CAN measure radio consumption. Rajar have done it since 1992, when they took over from JICRAR. The accuracy of their methodology however... And it's not so different to how they used to measure TV (maybe still do?). Each household being surveyed had a box installed on the main set which had a kind of remote control with each button assigned to a member of the household. You had to hit the button that corresponded to you whenever you settled down to watch something, pressing again whenever you left the room. I was asked to have one, once. Seem to remember they were offering £40 in M&S vouchers. Would have been sometime in the late 90's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gettafa Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 Dropped off the tax return today, governmentr building - blaring in the public area was 3fm. It maybe a tactical thing, like white noise, or playing some particular music to stop a seige. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

woody2 Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 why isn't the tt radio contract been offered out to other stations...... bet the school kids could do a better job...... seems a ton of money for nothing...... http://www.iomtoday.co.im/article.cfm?id=51489&headline=TT won't be included in public broadcasting§ionIs=news&searchyear=2019 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donald Trumps Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 If Manx Radio isn't carrying the TT then there's not a huge point in subsidising the sacred cow for £1m pa Tynwald should properly debate the public sector media motion brought to it by Kerry Sharpe It may be that an all digital media strategy is much more cost effective 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MR receive a payment from the Gov for public service broadcasting. This doesn't include the bike racing. Rob proposed that they should be made to do it as part of the payment. Tynwald refused to back his idea saying that it would be wrong to dictate what the media do or don't do. The broadcast contract for TT and MGP will now go to a public tender and anyone interested will be able to bid - that is if anyone wants to which will of course depend on the terms of the tender they put out. In 2018 the terms for MR meant that they couldn't generate their own advertising and had to promote DFE's advertisers. We're now around 8 months to TT so they'd better get their fingers out. Anyone winning a bid will need to find the equipment, infrastructure, frequencies and staff and all that will take time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
