Airwaves driven gaga by pirate radio
PIRATE radio DJs who set up an illegal station put a 10-foot aerial on top of a block of flats (in Crawley, West Sussex) without anyone noticing.
It was only discovered when Ofcom received complaints after interference with air traffic control systems at Gatwick Airport.
The pirates managed to get through security gates at Robinson House on the High Street and into roof space with access to the roof.
They even fixed a lock onto the back of the door so they could not be disturbed while at work completing the process.

Three months community service for Israeli radio pirate
The Haifa District Court, sitting as the Criminal Appeals Court, has sentenced a man to three months’ community service for broadcasting on a pirate radio station, the State Attorney’s Office announced today.
Yehuda Sorogon had been originally convicted in the Hadera Magistrates’ Court of making illegal broadcasts on Briza, a Haifa area pirate radio station broadcasting on FM, between 2005 and 2008. However, the State Attorney’s Office had appealed to the higher court against the original sentence of probation imposed on the defendant.

Pirate radio rave tapes: 'You can't Google this stuff'
Happy hardcore, jungle, garage – as 90s pirate radio cranked it out, Mike Finch soaked it up on thousands of cassette tapes. Dan Hancox marvels at a treasure trove that's truly massive:
"It was the sound of London when I was doing my GCSEs," says 31-year-old Mike Finch. "I remember in 1994 and '95 you would walk down Oxford Street and the stalls there would all have jungle playing; that Congo Natty ragga sound. It was there in the air anyway, and all you needed was a little radio to tune in." In many ways, Finch is not unusual – a rave everyman who had his life changed for ever by the music of the pirate radio stations. What makes him different is that the legacy he carries with him is also a tangible one: Finch has what must be Britain's largest archive of 90s pirate radio tapes. It's a combination of thousands of home-recorded C90 cassettes, and hundreds of "tape packs", the semi-official collections of recordings of major jungle, drum'n'bass, happy hardcore, garage and grime raves. It's music that scarcely exists in any industry-recognised recorded form.
