Whilst
there had been occasional free radio activity in the Republic of Ireland
prior to 1970, stations began to come on the air in greater numbers
in the early 1970's. At this time most only operated for
a couple of hours at a time, usually either late in the evening (in
order to broadcast to listeners in Europe) or on a Sunday.
The following list of stations were reported to have broadcast
from the Dublin area up to 1975. |

attempt to publicise the fight for free radio in Ireland. This
particular card was from founding member Ken Sheehan, who was one of
the operators of Radio Dublin at the time. |
