Southern Ireland doesn't suggest to me a site just over the border with Northern Ireland.
RTE used to have a transmitter near Cork, 10kw on 729. Mast still up in 2017.

Found the coverage map Previous Message
I'm told, there are 2 Harris DX 25s in residence By the sound of what you say, David - it was somewhat Directional towards the North, if Scotland was well covered?
Trouble is, not many folks live in the Land of the wandering Haggis hat might wake up at least one forum user.
I also understand, the MW TX was turned off, 5 years ago. Previous Message
Yes, the only problem is that, as it stands, it is directional, so reception here near Liverpool was not brilliant when using 10kW. But 2/3 of Ireland and all of Western Scotland were covered (I have a coverage map somewhere!!).
But great news if feasible Previous Message
The old Spirit Radio site, which is redundant & just in Ireland near the border, might be the candidate?
used to be on 539 10kw TX even a new OPTIMOD
Nice Aerial system, too.
