The people who made u do this should feel bad, cause they somehow handicaped Slovakia!

RTI Closure - So ahead from every single station

J: I'm sorry to hear that RTI has been taken off the airwaves :(

M. it was just great station, so ahead from every single station…its great idea to have this kinda radio international...connecting two states

PK:I feel sorry for you all there

P: Bye Bye (sniff) Sorry you're going. I'll probably catch you in your next incarnation.

RTI Closure - MANY THANKS

Dear Eric, and Mr Telensky,
I am sad to hear of the closure. I do hope a way forward - somehow - is found.
Hoping a way can be found for you, your listeners, and your local community too, to have your wishes, and dreams, once again.
Meanwhile may I take this opportunity to thank you for inviting me to take part in the RTI Broadcasts over the past few years.
Many thanks,Johnny Reece

RTI Closure - I WILL MISS YOU FOR EVER

Kate: Bless ya... sounds all very sad. Hope you're ok though apart from all this going on... Chin up.

L: i wish i was there with you all...it makes me feel sad, and mad & bad!

SC: you will bounce back with something even better.

BH: RTI could never be called OK, it’s MUCH BETTER than OK. It has MORE FUN that any radio in SVK. It’s like an EXPRESS TRAIN full of good music.I will miss you for ever

A & V: wish you all well & know that you will get up and do it all again, in your 100% pro way

P: RTI supr

Teodora: I can't stop sighing when I rememer the fun we had being invited at Eric's show...and the jokes we made while chating on air.
I will miss you guys!!!!!!!!!!

RC: Sad News

K: i think that english is favourite language in the world .. and people in PP , bratislava , and everybody ... speak English ….it is sad that in SVK isnt something English

H:pity! one of the last good radio in Slovakia

K: So Long Guys - Best Wishes for the future...

B: oh noooooooo ;(

T: I think that it is unfair to you that you can not broadcast on Slovakia in English

RB: im very sorry to see the end to this station

GD: This is a sad day

W.W I read the blog about the real reasons why the station is closing. I'm totally shocked as to why this is allowed to happen in a democratic country. Very sorry and saddened.

L.B.: It's a tragedy, i was there on day one and have seen what Eric put in and lost for this dream. And he made it work. Then some people did him wrong for their own ends. Stand up and be counted for an hour ..

Don: We must defend free speech again, too many have died in Europe for this precious prize

A: GOOD LUCK TONIGHT LOVE XX

T.T i'm so sad, but i don't want to make you sad as well, i'm here to send you hugs and best thoughts. by the way. you play great music today
