What online radio u listen to ? -
HAURAKI was / is what i grew up listening too , it changed since i was 4-7 but has great story of its beginning, First and only PRATE Radio Station in world! "In late 1966, the Tiri, the boat chosen to carry the transmitter, anchored in the Hauraki Gulf outside the 3-mile territorial waters limit, despite government efforts to stop it from sailing. The station broadcast on the frequency of 1480 kHz, which was well outside the range of frequencies used by the New Zealand Broadcasting Corporation. After testing the transmitter with a broadcast from pirate announcer Bob Leahy, and having to replace the mast after winds of more than 30 knots knocked it down, Radio Hauraki officially started broadcasting on 4 December 1966. During the next 2 years, the crew on the Tiri would endure adverse weather conditions, fatigue, and continued efforts to shut down the station." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_Hauraki

In Liverpool where I'm from about 8 years ago we had a pirate station called "weed FM" and it would play the most amazing obscure reggae tunes. BEST RADIO STATION EVER.
