Sunshine Radio on test two weeks after an act of sabotage brought their transmitter crashing to the ground before the station could get off the ground.
In the first clip, Tony Allan is on air for a test broadcast on September 28th…
…and in the second clip, Robbie Dale is first on air from 4.55pm and he’s followed by Chris Cary.
An (airchecked) recording of Dublin superpirate Radio Nova from April 24th 1982. Taken from 88.2MHz it features the voices of Tony Allan, Siobhán Purcell on news and Don Allen.
Darad commented on the above recording:
Check out that audio. I am pretty sure that was me that put in that request for us down at Fast Food Ranelagh as that’s where I worked at the time and we always phoned in requests to Energy. Sometimes I’d cycle down there and get goodies thrown down to me from the third floor whilst Rick Dees was on!
