Radio Caroline AM service to open<\/h2>\n

Weather and technology permitting, our programmes on\u00a0648 kHz<\/strong>\u00a0will commence originating from the Ross Revenge at 7.00 AM on Friday 22nd December.<\/p>\n

The changed schedule for the day will be :<\/p>\n

7am\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Johnny Lewis
\n9am\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Top Fifteen
\n10am\u00a0\u00a0 Ray Clark \u2013 with the official launch at midday.
\n2pm\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Kevin Turner
\n5pm\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Resume normal programmes<\/p>\n

No doubt Bob Lawrence, Martin Fisher and Jerry Wright will personalise their evening shows to mark the day.<\/p>\n

Of course we are delighted to have found and secured what must be the best possible AM transmission site for our service. We thank Cobra Mist Ltd for this facility whilst noting that this is a private site which cannot at this time be visited.<\/p>\n

So, another date for the Radio Caroline calendar of events and the inevitable question. Where do we go from here?<\/p>\n
