Radio Caroline – tune in now 648khz AM. Test transmissions. (Nov 2017)

by

This is Radio Caroline’s 648 kHz omnidirectional mast in Orfordness, originally a spare mast for BBC’s directional 648 service aimed at mainland Europe (see 4 of the 5 masts in the background). It’s professional build, perfect tuning and grounding plus its position near the sea make it the perfect antenna to get the most out of Caroline’s limited 1 kilowatt, enabling the signal to cover large parts of the UK as well as all of the Netherlands and other parts of mainland Europe.

Josie Lawson… I loved listening to Radio Caroline..

Nick Prince… You can again

Tiffany Barton… Retro sound is so much better.  I listened in Aberdeenshire and so excited to hear on 648.

Alan Wood… Driving around with caroline on ,,who would have believed it !!!!!! Makes me forget I’m an old fart !!

Josie Lawson… thanks Nick but I haven’t got A.M. now. Only FM and DAB on my RNIB radio. Can it be found on the iPad anywhere’s?

Jim Breeds… Josie, Listen on their website. http://www.radiocaroline.co.uk/#home.html

Graham Peters… Radio Caroline opened my ears to real music

 

St Leonards Festival (Lenfest) 1st July 2017 – Musicians Wanted

by

Ron Cook says…

Does Hastings and St Leonards have the best musicians on the coast – let’s find out?

The festival organisers are looking for performers to play all over St Leonards on the day of the festival 1st July. 

This is the biggest event in the St Leonards entertainment calendar and visited by more than 5000 people. Gigs will be mainly in the open on the seafront and around the town centre.

You’ll need to be able to organise your own PA and transport but performance fees will be paid (pending the usual applications for funding) Bands, duets, soloists, whatever you play, however you entertain, be part of Lenfest.

If the idea appeals drop me an email ron.cook@gmail.com (Put Lenfest in the title line so I can find it easily) and I’ll make sure it reaches the right person.

We’ll be posting more on Lenfest in the coming weeks but email me if you want more details and I’ll do my best to reply.

Please share this with musician friends and family***

Mick O’Dowd… Hastings has always been awash with talented musicians and still is!
