	UK pirate radio - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Pirate radio stations can apply for a broadcasting licence but they will usually need to go off air for a time to present a legal case.
		The Act boosted a campaign for onshore commercial radio to be legalised, which would enable listeners to choose a non-BBC English-language station and cause the establishment style of BBC radio to be relaxed and refreshed.
		U.K. Cultural References: On the album The Who Sell Out by The Who, their music tracks are separated by PAMS jingles from the period of 1964 to 1967 when they were used by Wonderful Radio London.

	Simon Reynolds- rave/jungle UK pirate radio
		Pirate radio get its romantic name not just from its flagrant flouting of government restrictions on the airwaves, but from its early days in the 1960's, when unlicensed stations broadcasted from ships anchored at sea just outside British territorial waters.
		For pirate radio stations then and now, the motivation to go outside the law is the desire to supply "the people" with the music that officially-sanctioned radio doesn't play or doesn't play enough of, and to present it in an "authentic" manner.
		Surviving as a pirate station in the 1990's involves a mix of hard graft, practical skill and raw cunning similar to that possessed by their seafaring namesakes of the 16th and 17th Centuries.

	History of pirate radio UK Garage music
		Pirate radio gets its romantic name not just from its flagrant flouting of government restrictions on the airwaves, but from its early days in the sixties, when unlicensed stations broadcast from ships anchored at sea just outside British territorial waters, or from derelict Army & Navy forts on the Thames estuary.
		In the early eighties, pirate radio entered its second boom period, with the rise of fl music stations like Horizon, JFM (Jazz Funk Music), Dread Broadcasting Corporation and LWR, specializing in the soul, reggae and funk that Radio One marginalized.
		In a weird echo of the pardons offered to buccaneers and corsairs in the seventeenth century, pirate stations were offered an amnesty if they went off the air, and a chance to apply for one of the bonanza of licenses being made available as part of the Conservatives government's policy of "freeing" the airwaves.

		According to the Radio Communications Agency, the government organisation that polices the airwaves, there are 209 UK pirates, 181 of which are in London.
		Pirate DJs played a fundamental role in creating UK garage - the hybrid of house music and Jamaican dancehall from which Ms Dynamite, and several other chart stars, such as Craig David and Daniel Bedingfield, have emerged.
		Radio 1, worried it was no longer down with the kids, began ditching greying ex-Caroline presenters and poaching Kiss's rising stars, who were replaced at Kiss, itself desperate to retain street credibility, by up-and-coming pirate DJs.
