      As one of your past occasional customers can I say that I hope
      that you will continue to post on this forum.&nbsp; I can't comment on
      your post as the reference text seems to have dropped of
      somewhere, however, my reaction to the university survey on
      illegal (unlicensed) broadcasting (if that was the subject) was
      that the reasons are obvious.&nbsp; BTW wasn't it wireless workshop who
      started making kit for college stations all those years ago?<br clear="none">

      <div>Community radio and pirate radio are forever entwined.</div>
      <div>&nbsp;</div>
      <div>How did Broadcast warehouse ,SBS and Radica your transmission
        providers get going????</div>
      <div>Could I possibly suggest that pirate radio may have been
        involved in their transmitter testing and development</div>
      <div>If you don't understand this comment then then you have no
        concept of the evolution of this sector of the broadcast
        industry and how it has got you on air today.</div>
      <div>You should be grateful for&nbsp;Pirate radio&nbsp;or you would not have
        a UK made transmitter.</div>
      <div>&nbsp;</div>
      <div>DJ Uncle has been walking around with a Police&nbsp;tracking
        bracelet on his ankle&nbsp;after&nbsp;the last arrest.</div>
      <div>The Police supported his station as did local politicians.
        But WHY because it acted as as mouthpiece to calm local flash
        points.</div>
      <div>He has tried many times to go legit and has no chance in
        hell. He is not your enemy he should be applaulded for his work
        at great personal cost and you should work together.</div>
      <div>&nbsp;</div>
      <div>Don't get sniffy with all pirates KISS and XFM where there
        once.</div>
      <div>&nbsp;</div>
      <div>I would like to&nbsp;state I have not been part of pirate radio,
        mainly because I had day jobs in my early 20's with the BBC,
        Radio Luxemberg 208 and Soho production studios, </div>
      <div>So I could hear my recordings on the radio every night
        anyway. <br clear="none">
      </div>
      <div>What disturbs me is a lack of understanding of cultures other
        than your own comfort zones.</div>
      <div>A pirate is just this weeks illegal immigrant as far as you
        all seem to be concerned.</div>
      <div>Don't forget illegal is a moving target, it was illegal to be
        GAY not so long ago.</div>
