MikeLive! on satellite Since December 2008, MikeLive! internet radio can be heard on the Eurobird 9A satellite on a part-time basis.
Times (UK): Mon-Sun, 00:00-01:00 GMT, 06:00-07:00 GMT, 12:00-13:00 GMT, 18:00-19:00 GMT
Reception equipment required: To receive this signal, a satellite receive antenna (a "dish"), and digital satellite receiver, would be required. There is no encryption so no special type of satellite decoder, or viewing card, is needed. The details below are those needed to set up a satellite dish and receiver to receive the service.
Satellite: Eurobird 9A, located at 9 degrees East The MikeLive! satellite service is carried part-time by Radio Eden, who also transmit programmes for other radio stations. Only certain programmes on Radio Eden, scheduled for the above times, are MikeLive! programmes. For more details about other programmes in the Radio Eden satellite schedule, check radioeden.com.
The Eurobird 9A satellite covers Europe, Middle East and parts of Russia, Western Asia and North Africa, as per the coverage map below.
 Within the dark orange area (within the 50 dBW dotted contour), reception should be possible with a small dish antenna of 60 cm diameter. The signal weakens towards the edge of the orange area (the lighter orange colour), and a larger dish antenna, of between 1.2 and 3 metre diameter, would be needed. Reception is generally impossible within the landmasses/countries shown in grey, this is outside of the satellite coverage area ("footprint"). Remember, to listen anytime, MikeLive! is still only available 24/7 via the internet at www.mikelive.co.uk. We hope you enjoy listening to MikeLive!
