RADIO PIRATE WOMAN
Radio Pirate Woman has been operating an informal
radio for 21 years: i.e. putting on small festivals twice a year
whose purpose was not so much to gain millisteners to the radio
as to get women to participate behind the microphone – an
unusual approach made necessary by the technical difficulties
of primitive home-made equipment and a transmitter with a range
of only three miles, which included a number of black spots. For
the same reasons, we decided to put our broadcasts onto the web.
