The Navigator Posted March 10, 2009 Report Posted March 10, 2009 Mine is on all day. Been doing this for years and never had any issues. Only trouble is the stock birds are smarter then me now listening to Radio 2.

oldguy Posted March 11, 2009 Report Posted March 11, 2009 I have a radio on during the day, when it gets turned off the birds seem to know its time to settle down for the night the only downside is the strangers that drop in from time to time are never in a rush to go back to their own lofts, and when i take them 40 miles away to fly home, guess were i find them on my return.......I also use it to keep cats away kev
little sam Posted March 11, 2009 Report Posted March 11, 2009 smart is radio 4 (evil) Thats what they said when he went to the loft ;D ;D ;D ;D
greenlands Posted March 11, 2009 Report Posted March 11, 2009 Radio Cumbria, 6 am to 10pm on a timer.Public footpath behind loft ,radio helps block any excess noise .
