Irish pirates on medium wave

As many of you will have noticed, there's been a real uptick in activity from Ireland on the medium wave. I thought I would take a run through some of the stations that have been heard recently.

846: Radio North. The station first appeared 40 years ago and is still going strong from the North West of Ireland with a country, gospel and oldies playlist. It recently updated its website https://radionorth.co.uk/

981: Radio Star Country. Another long-running Irish pirate which has been around since the 80s.The station, based in County Monaghan, has a gospel and country playlist. Its website is http://radiostarcountry.com/

1017: Radio Cuckoo. This station is probably more familiar to shortwave listeners as it has been regularly heard on SW for nearly 10 years. More recently the station has been logged on 1017 although not so easy to hear over here.

1206: Radio Daniella. I heard Daniella last night playing a recording of Kiss FM. It puts in a fair signal into the UK after dark, often playing recordings of other stations.

1233: KLAS Radio. This pirate is often well-heard in UK, using the frequency once occupied by Radio Rock Revolution.

1440: Energy Power AM. Probably one of the strongest of the Irish pirates often putting in a great signal after dark on the old Radio Luxembourg frequency. The Dublin pirate has been on air for around 20 years using several frequencies on MW. Keep up to date with them on their  Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/energyam

1530: Radio Rainbow. This station has been heard on both SW and MW rebroadcasting Weekend Music Radio. The WMR relays are heard at weekends during the day on SW and in the evenings on MW.

1575/1593: Coast FM relays. The English-language Coast FM Tenerife relays have been running for a number of years on shortwave and medium wave. 

1593 Kiss AM. This station has been logged this year on 1593 and 1125. I'm told the station is still using 1593 despite Coast FM also using the frequency. Kiss AM has also been heard on shortwave.

Any corrections or stations I've missed out are welcome in the comments.
