Ofcom commissions research into pirate radio
Ofcom has commissioned research into pirate radio: There is an anonymous online questionnaire you can fill in.
"Dr Angus Nurse Director of Programmes in Criminology and Sociology at Middlesex University is working with his colleague Dr Robin Fletcher to examine the phenomenon of pirate radio in the 21st century...The aim of the research is to, so far as is possible, examine the extent to which pirate radio remains a contemporary social and regulatory problem. We are examining why ‘pirate’ radio persists despite the existence of legal alternatives to unlicensed broadcasting. The research, which was commissioned by the regulator Ofcom, also aims to assess both why people continue with ‘pirate’ broadcasting on FM radio, as well as the reasons why audiences continue to consume ‘pirate’ radio broadcasts...We would like to hear from as many listeners and members of the public as possible."

New low-power medium wave licences in Netherlands
Stig Hartvig Nielsen posts on WRTH Facebook page 3 May:
Today Dutch minister Kamp has made it public that the Medium Wave band now will be open for low power stations operating with a power of max. 100 Watt. Full story here (in Dutch): http://radio.nl/810349/groen-licht-voor-laagvermogen-uitzendingen-op-am
One of the first stations to go on the air under the new legislation may be the long time pirate – Atlantis Radio 1521 – in Friesland. They got a license (?) from Commissariaat voor de Media in March 2016, and they recently purchased a new 75 W AM transmitter (300 W PEP). The format is golden oldies – and the station can be heard online here: http://www.atlantisradio.eu/radio/ - and more details can be found here: https://www.facebook.com/RadioAtlantis1521KHz/
