MikeP: Sorry, I moved the cache folder to a new location and some of the the code broke.
It seems to be fixed now.

David Moore : Does the radio have an "RDS" system?
If it does, then you might need to enable the "RDS-AF" facility.
This will tell the radio to stick with Radio 1 if the signal on 97.9 becomes poor.
"AF" is a list (supplied digitally) of Alternative Frequencies for a radio station.

A big apology to anyone who had problems tonight.
The code was copied over earlier in the day from the "staging server" but there was problem with the configuration of the software.
Everything on the site gets pushed though a central "cache" system. This uses the server's hard dish file system to store all the elements that make up the page.
Anything that has to be taken from a database or computed uses the cache system.
To make the site easier to manage, I changed the cache system to use a new folder that is outside the web-server file system. Before there were several different cache structures for different parts of the system: now there is only one.
The development system I use is Windows, but the main UK Free TV server is one flavour of Linux and the test environment a different Linux system.
What worked on the dev and testing servers didn't work as expected on the live system and sadly blocked pages for a short while.
I've fixed it all now and New Relic is showing "no errors on any server" for the last hour.
I've also fixed the problem with Your comments | ukfree.tv - 12 years of independent, free digital TV advice so it now shows everyone's pictures again!

I've just found the bug in the changed comments system. This means that comments won't hide themselves any more...
Sorry about that.

MikeP: You can.
Go to the Map of all DAB transmitters | ukfree.tv - 12 years of independent, free digital TV advice map and pick the "Medway" map or the "Kent" map .
Or just see Tunbridge Wells (Kent, England) DAB transmitter | ukfree.tv - 12 years of independent, free digital TV advice ?

Welcome to the Knowledge Base, a system that can help you find answers here on UK Free TV. Just answer "yes" or "no" to each question in turn. I am really confident that you will find this a very useful facility,

MikeP: The diagnostics pages have been replaced by the Knowledge base. There was a massive flaw in the old system that didn't allow it to be extended.
I'm not sure what to do with the orphan pages comments at the moment.
There are 2,366 to deal with. Let me have a think.
