K.L.A.S. RADIO / COUNTY MONAGHAN (1991-1993)
828kHz

========================================================

IRISH PIRATES A / Z

 

K.L.A.S. Radio was one of several stations which began operating following the passing of the 1988 legislation against the pirates. The station operated close to the Co Monaghan border and put out a strong signal on 828kHz from 1991 to we believe sometime in 1993.

1991_00_00_fri_klas_828am_ann819_test_tx_tonyhughes-gh888.mp3 New Jun 2023
Over three hours audio from a test transmission for KLAS Radio one Friday afternoon in 1991, with contiuous music and Tony Hughes hosting for around two hours of the recording. Unfortunately there was no date on the tape, which was recorded near Blackpool from 828kHz.  The levels are up and down, suggesting they were working on the studio at the time, and Tony was announcing 819kHz. However the UK ILR stations on 828kHz can clearly be heard underneath, and there is splatter from BBC Radio Cumbria which was on the next channel of 837kHz, and only about 10 miles from where the recording was made.
