FRS Holland test broadcast on Sunday
Hello Radio Friends
Some latest info. Next Sunday 16 October at 08:00 UTC/ 10:00 CEST there will be a 60 minute test on 7600 kHz in preparation for the FRSH 23rd October broadcast.
According to our tx operator, it might be the case that 7600 is used by a foreign station during day time on Sundays. Therefore I will try to check 7600 next Sunday.
If any of you are listening in next Sunday and are able to tune in to 7600 between 09-14 UTC, please do so. If you hear any signals from a foreign (Chinese?) station on 7600, please let us know by email. If 7600 happens to be used for one or more hours during day time (before 14 UTC), we will be using 7685.
October 23rd and 30th will see our internet stream between 13:52-20:00 UTC/ 14:52- 21:00 UTC (Oct. 30th > winter time).
Let's hope propagation will improve a bit so that we can enjoy loud and clear signals on 7600 or 7685.
All the best

New UK pirate radio forum
Blunders writes: "Hope I'm not treading on peoples toes here, but should you be a UK Pirate Radio Enthusiast, especially FM, I've created a new forum especially for us,
It will include chat on the UK Pirate scene, mainly focussing on FM, and also have a forum for technical advise.
I've only just set this up so we're quite thin when it comes to members, but hopefully that will change.

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.
