Radio Caroline Description:
Radio Caroline has a history going back to the day’s of offshore radio in the 1960’s and is one that era’s great survivors. In the 1970’s the station returned as an album format broadcaster operating off the coast of Holland and then the UK from the radio-ship Mi Amigo until she sank in a storm in 1980.
Not giving up, Caroline returned once again three years later with a bigger and better radio-ship Ross Revenge. This sturdy vessel rode out the Great Storm of 1987 only to have the weakened 300ft arial mast collapse a few days later. After repairs she was on the air again until 1990 with many more adventures which you can read about on the history pages of our website.
Today the ship is still used for regular weekend broadcasts but most programmes are now from land based studios. The station can be heard on 648kHz AM in the east of England and in several other locations on DAB.

As a birthday present from my children, I was treated to a visit today to ‘Ross Revenge’ in the Blackwater. A wonderful three hours going over and into the ship, including the studios as they were broadcasting live. So much to see and learn from the guides – we had Ray Clark – something of an institution on Caroline. We also met Bella – the ship’s dog – when her owner is aboard, that is. If you can, do visit the ship and help her into that dry dock she really needs!

Listening live now to Ray Clark who showed us round Ross Revenge on Sunday. Excellent day out. Now good to put a voice to the face!
