Ofcom propaganda on 87.7 in London
Ofcom have been broadcasting their own propaganda message on 87.7 across parts of London...
We all know their game. Tell the public that pirate radio endangers lives and get them on Ofcom's side. There ARE some problems, agreed, but...
"There are no excuses for causing excess interferance. Yes you can expect a certain amount of de-sense to local receivers due to the relatively high signal levels produced by the output-transmitter. Good filtering of harmonics, and a well positioned aerial will sort out the vast majority of these problems. The authorities will claim that your equipment could cause interferance to the emergency services as it is not built to a high standard. This is un-true if you build and install your transmitters well and monitor their output for frequency stability, over-deviation, and harmonics.
I spent five years working for the radio section of the ambulance service and I never once had an interferance complaint tracable to a pirate station. Minicabs and french stations were the largest source of problems, and then second only to faults on our own kit or operator errors."

FACT : Community stations and even the BBC themselves have been known to interfere with things, it's the nature of radio. There are ways to avoid it and a pirate that cares will take measures to do that.

Irie FM (Midlands) raid caught on camera
Not an amazingly exciting video, but this was caught by IrieUK's own webcam. One of the Ofcom officers is Mike Bothma, who has been in his job for years and is well known by the pirates in the Midlands.
