Just a few videos of Radio 390 back in the sixties. So what was the story for Radio 390? Well according to the usually unreliable and for certain ever controlled Wiki P it goes as follows:

Radio 390 (1965–1967) was a pirate radio station on Red Sands Fort, (near Whitstable), a former Maunsell Fort on the Red Sands sandbar in the River Thames estuary. Previously the fort had been used by Radio Invicta (c June 1964 – February 1965) and K-I-N-G Radio (March – September 1965). Neither was well-financed or successful, and KING approached Ted Allbeury, who suggested a format based on women's magazines to appeal to housewives.

Radio 390 was named after the station's wavelength, so listeners would know where to tune. The actual wavelength was 388 metres (773 kHz), but 390 was easier to remember. Like its neighbour, Radio City, Radio 390 took advantage of the fort's layout by erecting a 250-foot vertical mast on an inner tower, guyed to three of the outer towers. This, with additional elevation from the height of the towers, gave a stable and efficient antenna, better than ship-based stations, ensuring coverage of southern England with only a 10 kilowatt transmitter. For advertisers, the station claimed 35 kilowatts.

The station's easy listening format was innovative and highly popular with listeners, but criticised by Britain Radio as "Stone Age radio – a series of segmented dirges"

So, it appears on this occasion Wikipedia may have got things right. Radio 390 was both popular & described by fellow offshore station Britain Radio as 'stone age radio'.

In other words it (390) was the perfect antidote for the BBC's Light Programme, the home of Family Favorites, Housewife's Choice, a couple of soap's and of course The Midland Light Orchestra. Radio 390 managed to upgrade the BBC's stone age approach to their listeners, provide a level of respect and normality, and treat the audience as equals. 

Yes! Radio 390 had hit on the idea of being less crap than the Light Prog, making it a massive threat to BBC radio in general! How dare a commercial radio station turn up and be something listeners wanted, whilst not being the work of the Devil and playing Pop Music.

So in this case the wheels of justice moved fast, very fast. Territorial Waters were (ahem) adjusted, the great unwashed were ignored and a fabulous idea was ended. Is it just me, or does that sound like the BBC & their lefty lovies nearly sixty years later?

Rather than me correct the Anorak legal experts over on the Legendary Gazza S board I thought I would let a real British Barrister do it regarding the BBC versus The President of the USA and mirror image laws and more. 

And here are a couple of more videos that might be of interest on this "mates niche" website. You really are a sad troll Board Watcher :)

In fact as you have continuously been reminded over the past week (if you can be bothered to listen to them, or read their website) they the BBC are "Farcically independent" (oops that might have been a typo). 

Fierce independence or not, BBC News are quite happy to refer to genocidal maniacs by their chosen titles but even after a likely massive lawsuit, they cannot even give the UK's biggest allies leader his presidential title, he is as usual just 'Trump'.

This is not an endorsement of any political persuasion, it's just pointing out a bias or controlled manner of dealing with inconvenient individuals and how the Mainstream Media always fall into line when instructed to. 

Today's case study is from the 1960's and Wonderful Radio London. Although some of the narrative is questionable, the reality of Government Control, or their desire not to give an inch to alternative viewpoints, is clearly demonstrated. Nothing has changed. Today's hate speech is yesterdays Free Radio, the people might have changed but the Sociopaths remain in control.             

Featuring the usual BBC Pedophile stuff and some classic soundtracks from Radio's past. I know your getting pretty excited, so lets go.......

Coming Soon : Neil Gates brand new Radio Cook International, Malcolm Moore's incisive and witty responses to any critiques of the licensed OAP version of Radio Carly Simon, and a chance to win a Poodle covered in a piece of Ross Revenge grease.... and so it goes! Question? Who really is going to turn the light off?     

So, as I understand it, GB News is bad, Fox is evil and all commercial radio stations in Great Britain only play the same 300 songs over and over, and community radio has failed except for one and that's a toss up between Angel Vintage and Alfred who somehow are really doing very well (lets not go from B to Z, the truth might hurt).  

However we can remember the glory day's of commercial radio of old! As a special kindness to most free radio fans (anoraks of the wavelength kind) we will begin this new series with a broadcast where most of these fine rose tinted folk were young, possibly very young, or even not born.  Certainly the book is before all our time I suspect, however like Eric Blair's 1984 the visionary nature of this tale is quite astonishing. 

Or does he deserve his own Anorak following? Just asking for a friend.

It's OK, you can still think for yourself. Just keep it under raps though, no need to frighten the neighbors...

It's a couple of years old, but the comedy genius remains on this BBC staff training video. It's the fact that they were serious and really wanted their staff to see these micro (wave) aggression's that just makes this cringe-worthy piece of politically correct garbage so funny.

The not so subtle message that all white people are racist morons and every one else is a victim, would be almost tolerable for the laugh, if it wasn't for the fact that BBC license fee payers funded this pile of excrement. 

So have you cancelled your license yet? I know plenty of anoraks have!  

A little variety pack of stuff that might intrigue...
