<div dir="ltr"><h1>Radio Seagull</h1><div><strong>Andy Sennitt</strong> writes on Facebook</div><div><br>For those of you who liked listening to offshore radio in the 60s, 70s, and 80s a reminder that <strong>Radio Seagull</strong> has begun its live broadcasts from its radio ship, the LV Jenni Baynton, daily at 1700-0500 UTC on 1602 kHz and online worldwide at <a href="http://www.radioseagull.com/" target="_blank"><font color="#0066cc">radioseagull.com</font></a> and iTunes. These will continue through 31st August. </div>
<p>For the live broadcasts, the web feed is using the mediumwave signal, thus giving you the feel of listening on mediumwave wherever you are. </p><p>Coming up tonight at 2300 UTC is Bob Noakes, formerly of RNI and Radio Caroline. The schedule changes each day, so everyone is on the air but at different times. I'll be on board for the whole of next week, and really looking forward to it. Joining us next week is Carl Kingston, who some of you will remember from the Voice of Peace. For updated schedules and photos visit our special Facebook page - Radio Seagull Offshore 2014.</p>
<p>Andy adds in a footnote:</p><p>Normally our radio ship is anchored in the harbour at Harlingen, in Friesland. But every so often, we go out to sea to promote the station and make a small amount of money by offering visitors the chance to come and visit the ship. </p>
<p>August 31st 2014 is the 40th anniversary of the closure of RNI and Radio Veronica when the Dutch passed their own Marine Offences Act. The British equivalent had already been in force since 14 August 1967. <br> But Radio Veronica was soon back on the air, landbased and licensed. <br>
On board the Jenni Baynton are several mediumwave transmitters, but we are only licensed to broadcast on 1602 kHz. The whole station is run by people who love radio and rock music</p><p><font size="1">Our thanks to <strong>Mike Terry</strong> for the above information </font></p>
