Red Sands Radio to broadcast on 1278 kHz from
14-23 July
A ten-day Restricted Service Licence (RSL) operation will take place
from 14-23 July 2007 from the same Fort used by British offshore broadcaster
Radio 390 in 1964-1967.
Red Sands Fort, 7 nautical miles off Whitstable in Kent, is the location,
and UK communications regulator Ofcom has allocated 1278 kHz for the operation.
For those outside the local area, the programmes will be streamed online.
Red Sands Radio will pay tribute to the pirate
radio stations of the 1960’s that so much influenced how commercial
radio developed in Britain. There will be some of the original programmes
and radio documentaries with a mix of “the best of yesterday and
today”.
Red Sands Radio is part of the overall Project-Redsand who are well advanced
in their long term plans to preserve the last full set of Army Forts for
future generations.
