2011 Pirate Annual

Andrew Yoder in the USA writes: "Just a note that I put together a small book that is somewhat like the Pirate Radio Directories of the 1990s. Those books were mostly profiles of all of the different North American pirates on the air.

This book also mostly profiles North American pirates, so it will primarily be of interest to North American DXers and those who listen (or want to) listen for North American pirates.

It does include profiles of the "easiest European Pirates to hear in 2010." There was no scientific basis for which stations were in here (but they had to be heard by more than just Terry & Dave...because they hear everything!). The stations included in this edition were Amica, Atlantic, Black Arrow, Black Bandit, Borderhunter, Cupid, Geronimo SW, Mike, Mystery, Marconi, Orion, Spider. Also included in the North American section are WNKR, Radio Ramona, and Radio Rainbow International, which were relayed over here.

All of that in mind, here is the ad that I've been posting on FRN & HF Underground:
------------------------------------------------------

Whew! Just wanted to let you know that everything's been sent off to the printer. Thanks for all of the positive comments! The extra 56 pages added more time than last year...or maybe I'm slowing down faster than I had realized in my old age.

Here's the updated info: A couple of “articles” in the front, 161 North American station entries, and 13 European station entries. Same specs as last year (paperback, 5.5” x 8.5” trim, color glossy cover), but 184 pages.

The CD is just like last year (except that all clips are new): Clips from 84 different stations in North America and Europe. Nearly all clips were from 2010. The CD-R is in standard audio format. If you use a tight slot-loading CD drive (such as in a Mac laptop) and don't want a label on your CD, just let me know.

Price is $26 ($16 + $10 shipping) to Europe

You can send US funds to:

Cabinet Communications
POB 109
BRS, PA 17214

Or if you're a 21st-century kind of person, you may send $26 via PayPal to info@hobbybroadcasting.com. If you take this route, please also e-mail me so that I'm aware of the transaction.

Thanks!

KBC planning to return

Dutch-based KBC Radio, which was involved in the ill-fated attempts by UK broadcaster Big L to get a commercially viable mediumwave signal into the UK from a Dutch transmitter at Trintelhaven on 1395 kHz, is planning test transmissions under its own name. An announcement on its website says:

“We are waiting for a test licence. The reason that we are gonna test is to see if the signal is doing anything during the nightly hours. The test is on AM and not on SW. SW is always possible, but it’s not our first priority.”

The location and frequency of the AM transmitter in question will be revealed when the licence is received. In the meantime KBC continues to support Big L, which is currently online only.

The story of a little known pirate station in Zimbabwe

Kanyi Pamukwendengwe writes in the Mail & Guardian online: “What began as idle village talk over tea and tobacco quickly became reality when the son of my late uncle smuggled in a cheap Chinese radio transmitter from South Korea. For a week what was probably the first independent village radio in Zimbabwe rocked our little, insignificant village. ”

The station, called Pachindau People’s Radio, with a range of 7km, went on air from 6pm to midnight, powered by a diesel generator for seven solid days. But it was raided by the authorities and its equipment was confiscated.

FCC gets tough on US pirates

Spiceislander.com
April 8, 2011

The FCC  raided an FM gospel radio station operating in Brooklyn, New York.  The station has been illegally operating for almost one year providing 24 hours of gospel programming.

The FCC is planning to respond to every single complaint about a pirate station. Working with law enforcement, they will be raiding every pirate station and seizing all broadcasting equipment.

Owners will be fined $10,000 which will automatically be deducted from bank accounts, and they will be immediately arrested. The airwaves in places like Newark, Brooklyn, Boston, Miami, etc will have a lot less interference. The mass raid will most likely take place in a span of only 24 hours. Obviously, they’re not going to announce when the raid will be, but it will be sometime soon. 

After the mass raid, the FCC will revamp their infrastructure to speed up the shutdown of pirates in the future. Within 24 hours of any complaint, field agents will determine the source of the pirate broadcast and immediately summon the police to raid the station. Raids will happen at any time, even at 3:00 AM on a Sunday night.

Ofcom airs anti-pirate station

Broadcast regulator Ofcom has launched a radio station of its own, to remind would-be DJs that it's against the law to broadcast on FM without a licence.

The station, on air in London on 87.7 FM has been broadcasting recorded messages since it began transmission this week.

The service encourages people to report pirate stations or interference on regular stations because of pirates by filling out an online form on the Ofcom website.

An Ofcom spokesman told RadioToday.co.uk that the service has three main aims. "Firstly, it is to advertise the availability of 87.7 MHz for temporary radio services," he said. "Secondly, it is to explain about Ofcom
and our key responsibilities. And finally, it is to raise awareness about illegal broadcasters and the problems that they cause."
