Radio Caroline first started broadcasting at Easter 1964. I
was on my school holidays and getting a little bored. I had a
cassette recorder and every week I recorded the top 20 chart
show from the BBC Light programme on Sunday afternoon. There
was not much music on the radio those days and so I could
play back the programme over and over again. I listened to
some of the Dutch stations at the time and workers playtime,
music while you work and listen with mother were the
highlights of the BBC weekly offering. Radio Luxembourg was
the only pop music station on the air during the evenings
with a strong signal that faded badly. I was tuning the dial
when I found a very strong signal playing pop music. Suddenly
a voice said "This is a test transmission for Radio Caroline
on 199 your all day music station" It was Simon Dee and Chris
Moore. Little did I know how this would change my life. This
was BBC Radio's biggest challenge and the beginning of a
radio revolution for he UK. Soon many other stations joined
them on boats and forts in the North Sea. Radio London, Radio
City, Radio 390, Radio England. Britain Radio. Caroline North
(Irish Sea), Radio 270 and Radio Scotland also arrived. I
made my parents take holidays in Clacton so that I could
visit the ships on boats from Walton on the Naze and I
remember leaning over the side of the old Mi Amigo talking to
Tony Blackburn and Roger Day getting them to play my requests
on the Big Line up programme at 4pm. This fun went on until
1967 when the government passed a law banning these stations
and all but Radio Caroline closed down.
On August 14th 1967 the government's bill to silence all the
stations was made law and all the stations closed down except
one and that was Radio Caroline. I was supposed to be working
that day but at 2pm I disappeared into a stack of boxes of
light bulbs for an hour with my transistor radio and earpiece
and listened to the last hour of Radio London. I will never
forget that last hour they closed with "A day in the life"
by the Beatles and Paul Kay said, "Radio London is now
closing down". I turned over to Caroline and heard Johnny
Walker say, we welcome all the new listeners and Caroline
continues. Luckily no one had missed me all that time and I
still had my job. Caroline`s programmes that evening were
unmissable and the midnight "We shall overcome" and Johnny
Walker sailing up the Thames story was legendary and Radio at
its best. Caroline continued for some time but found it
difficult with money running out. I remember tuning in one
day and there was nothing there and later in the day I heard
the TV newsman say that Radio Caroline`s north and south
ships had been towed away to Holland due to unpaid bills
although there has always been some doubt about that.
Since then they have been on and off the air, on several
boats, gone adrift and sank. Many people thought that when
they sank in the early seventies they had gone forever. That
is not so as they returned in 1983 on another boat, the Ross
Revenge an ex trawler. In the hurricane of 1987 the mast ,
which was the highest ship born structure of that time blew
down but they still continued with a temporary structure.
Soon after the Dutch and British governments raided the ship
and closed it down but they still came back. Eventually they
went adrift on the Goodwin sands and incredibly were towed
off by a Dover Harbour tug and taken to Dover. When the
ship The Ross Revenge was pulled off the Goodwin sands
harbour board tug It was the start of a remarkable comeback
by Caroline. One of the only ships to be pulled off of these
dangerous sands the ship was taken into Dover harbour and
because of a restriction order on it forbidding it to go to
sea much work had to be done by the northern repair group
before they could bring the ship out again and all this work
was carried out by volunteers free. The salvage bill was paid
after great support from Dover harbour board and the ship
then moved to various locations around the Kent and Essex
coast before settling at Queenborough on the Isle of Sheppey
where I visited the ship and saw the amount of work that had
been carried out by the dedicated team. The ship was looking
much more respectable now. Some money had been raised with
the Radio Caroline support group and R.S.L broadcasts from
the ship and one of these had taken place in London when the
ship proudly sailed up the Thames as in the Johnny Walker
story. This had raised money to put the ship into Chatham
Dockyard for a check on the dent that was the result of their
running aground on the Goodwin Sands.
During the late 90s the Caroline ship the Ross Revenge was
moored in various places in the Thames estuary. Several R.S.L
broadcasts took place from the ship during this period. The
first was from off the Essex coast, then they moved to
Docklands in London and they only just moved the ship out
when the big bomb blast took place that would have done
serious damage to the ship. The next was from Chatham and
then Queenborough. In August 1999 the ship was moved to the
end of Clacton pier for the summer and another R.S.L
broadcast took place. During this time talks were taking
place with an organisation that were trying to bring back
Radio Luxembourg. The plan was to use the Ross Revenge as a
studio moored in London Docklands and relay the programmes up
to the Astra satellite from the ship until a permanent
studio could be built. This would have brought in lots of
money for Caroline and a rebuild of their studios. From
Southend the ship was moved to a temporary mooring in the
River Medway. This proved a disastrous move for the ship
because at Christmas a storm blew the ship adrift, it just
missed a ship and went aground on mud flats. Tugs from
Medway port authority had to be called out during their
Christmas break to tow them into Sheerness harbour at great
expense. Since then the ship has returned to Queenborough.
After all that Radio Luxembourg never returned.
Later the satellite broadcasts started and gradually the
hours of transmission were increased until they were
broadcasting seven days a week. When the analogue closedown
took place on March 31st broadcasts were streamed from the
web on www.radio-caroline.nl
