Awesome!! as you well know I was fascinated by this in my early youth and used to build and repair the transmitters from time to time, amazing fun, never hear them these days, it was a job to get many listeners back in the day, you had to fly poster or hand out flyers in pubs and even then it was sparse, people do radio online these days, there is so much competition for ears and eyes now you have to make it pretty special if you are going to launch a pirate station, the way society is clamping down on free speech though I can see it making a comeback, you would probably have to operate off a boat like radio Caroline, comedy and edgy/offensive comedy might be the only way for that to be aired the way we are going.
Great video, looking forward to the next one.
