It would be a sad day if alfalima.net did close, but then it is fair enough if Alfred doesn't want to continue spending 80 euros a year to keep it running. Hopefully some solution can be found.

Merseywaves: Liverpool's very own pirate radio pioneers

By Martin Higgins:

What is more DIY and rebellious than pirate radio? Nothing. Well maybe a full scale military revolution, with live ammunition, CS gas and the like, but still, it’s up there.


Liverpool has a great history of underground radio, the most significant being Merseywaves which was live and unplugged from 1984-91 with Bert Williams at the helm.

The broadcast started after Williams’ parent radio station disagreed with his unorthodox musical choices and after ‘discussions’ had him quietly removed.

Williams took it upon himself to erect a new portable transmitter in the face of his former bosses and stick it to them like David did Goliath.

(Read full article at: http://www.purplerevolver.com/bulletin/the-method/121168-merseywaves-liverpools-very-own-pirate-radio-pioneers.html )

Comment at end of article says Bert now runs Merseyland Alternative Radio, recently heard on shortwave, via Central Radio.

FRS Holland this Sunday

Dear FRS Friend,

Following lengthy preparations the time has come to celebrate 30 years of FRS-Holland on SW.
Next Sunday October 31st we kick off with the first out of a total of 3 different broadcasts. The FRS Anthology !

Factual, accurate, ups and downs....countless extracts, former presenters, listeners' contributions, a competition, fact files, the FRS Story and great 80s music. Next Sunday in part 1 we will feature 1980- 1987. The first eventful 7 years.

Here's the schedule:
08.52- 15.00 UTC 7600//5800 kHz
09.00-11.00 UTC and 12.00- 16.00 UTC 6005 kHz

That means that between 11.00-12.00 UTC there won't be any signal on 6005 kHz. As from 12.00 UTC onwards 6005 is back and will be one hour behind of 7600//5800 kHz.

The October 31st broadcast will be streamed between 14:52- 21:00 UTC/ 15:52- 22:00 CET via < http://nednl.net:8000/frsh.m3u>

The period 1988- 2010 will be featured in part 2 (late November) and part 3 (December).

We have received quite a number of contributions. If you feel you want to be part of the celebrations with your personal FRS memories: you can still do so as we can include that in one of the two broadcasts which follow after the October 31st one.

Of course we have special QSLs for the three broadcasts...one based on the 80s, one on the 90s and one on the 00s.

Hope to have your company next Sunday...it will be an unforgettable Sunday. October 31st 2010: 30 Years of FRS-Holland on SW!

73s, on behalf of the FRS staff

Pirate radio film "Stay Sailing"

‘Stay Sailing’, Directed by Michael Chandler, looks at pirate radio, warts and all, providing a unique insight into this underworld phenomena. The film features exclusive interviews with DJs and managers, from Passion, Rinse, Origin, Kiss, Itch and many more – as well as some of the pirate scene’s biggest names, such as DJ MK (now on Kiss) and Flight (previously on BBC’s 1Xtra). The film also gained exclusive access to some of the studios, locations and rooftops as pirates scaled a West London tower block at night to put up their rigs.

Pirate Radio St Helena

"Although we are all disappointed that Radio St. Helena had to cancel its annual Radio St. Helena Day broadcast on 11,092.5 kHz, I have been informed that there will be a substitute transmission one week later from Pirate Radio St. Helena.

The faux Radio St. Helena plans to operate on the familiar 11092.5 kHz at 2300 UT on Saturday, October 16th. You can contact the station during its program by using the following e-mail address: piratesainthelena @ gmail.com The station is busy building a special dipole antenna designed for just this transmission so reception should be good provided propagation cooperates.

The faux Radio St. Helena is preparing its own special QSL for the occasion. All correct reports will be verified with a special Radio St. Helena Day electronic attachment. Send your report to: piratesainthelena @ gmail.com

Good luck!"

London pirate station Rinse FM goes legal

DJ Geeneus was 16 when he broadcast his first pirate radio show from a tower block in Tower Hamlets, east London.
With decks and mixer balancing precariously on top of a homemade transmitter jammed between the sink and the cooker of his friend's 18th floor flat, Geeneus leant out of the window, pointed his aerial towards Hackney – and turned the music up loud.

Sixteen years, countless rooftop broadcasts and dozens of brushes with the law later, Rinse FM, often called the most influential pirate station on air and credited with bringing artists such as Dizzee Rascal and grime star Wiley to the public consciousness, is finally going legit, to the slightly bemused delight of its 32-year-old founder. "Getting the licence gave me the strangest feelings. Nothing don't faze me ... but that did," he said.

Nessie pirate station plan has Facebook page pulled

A Facebook page belonging to the White Witch, Kevin Carlyon, has been closed by the social networking site. Mr Carlylon plans to set up a pirate radio transmitter on the shores of Loch Ness in Scotland to summon up the spirit of the mythical Loch Ness monster 'Nessie.'

He had been using his Facebook site to gather support for his plan. An additional problem is that the airline was not happy for him to include a large battery and transmitting equipment in his luggage.
