400 pirate radio set ups shut down in London in past 2 years

Regulators have raided nearly 400 suspected pirate radio setups in London over the last two years, the Standard can reveal.

Figures released by Ofcom in response to a Freedom of Information request show nearly a quarter of the raids took place in Haringey, north London, while 90 resulted in equipment being seized.

Lambeth, south London, was the next biggest offender, with more than 50 raids on suspected pirates between April 2013 and March this year.

The communications regulator says internet radio and the introduction of community broadcasting licences have taken away some of the incentive for pirates to broadcast.

A message on Radio Merlin International's
 Facebook page:

"Due to reasons beyond our control Radio Merlin International has now closed down .Thanks for all your support over the years and the many reports over the years ,and your friendship.We will sadly miss being on the air.Thanks once again for tuning into us .Paul Watt."

In the comments he adds that they lost the transmitter site and ran out places for the aerial.

Very sad news as RMI brought a good and varied choice of music to 48 metres.
