Dozens of pirate radio raids

Dozens of raids against pirate radio broadcasters have been mounted in Islington and Hackney [London] this year but they have not stopped one frustrated listener from hearing pumping bass when he tries to tune into a classical station (photo).

Squads from government watchdog The Office of Communications (Ofcom), known as spectrum enforcement teams, have swooped on illegal stations 49 times since January.

Many are repeat offenders that have faced action time and again, including one known as Passion FM that has been targeted four times when transmitting from sites in the EC1 and N1 postcodes.
Ofcom said there were 40 raids in Islington, against 12 different stations, and nine operations in Hackney.

The figures were obtained by the Gazette following the trials of a reader who struggled to tune in to classical station BBC Radio Three.

We are understandably curious about reception on 7600 kHz.
We'd love to hear from you, either by mail [frs@frsholland.nl] or via POBox 2702, 6049 ZG Herten, the Netherlands.

 FRS-Holland will take to the air with full programming on Sun October 28th 08:52- 14:30 UTC/ 09:52- 15:30 CET. That day winter time will come into force. In the afternoon there will be an audio stream via Internet starting at 15:52 CET.

Rinse FM celebrates 18th birthday

DJ Geeneus is remembering the first ever Rinse FM radio broadcast, as a pirate station, in September 1994. "One of my friends got their first flat, so we were like, Great, we'll stick the studio in the kitchen, 'cause you're not going to be using your kitchen that much… We was 18 floors up and we put the aerial out the balcony window, moved it around… And then the front door come flying off and some old geezer come flying in, screaming at us, going, 'My telly!' He was watching the rugby and he could hear our radio station coming through his telly!"
