. . . But I don't encourage anyone to break the law, heaven forbid! Most of these are no longer on the web, but they were on 9-19-03 when I originally posted them he From http:http://www.metroactive.com/papers/me...eat-9735.html: I missed Creech but got to hear a tape of the band's performance two days later on a micropowered radio station broadcasting at 91.3FM out of Los Gatos known as Radio Free Lost Gatos. The guys in Creech guest DJed, heckled callers and played the whole of their set along with some of their favorite bands. According to RFLG owner/manager/DJ Dr. Slick, the station has been operating out of a house "buried in the Los Gatos hills" for three years. "I do it for fun," Slick says. "I don't do it because I'm an 'anarchist.' I don't go out and say, 'Kill the cops.' I'm positive with radio." Slick was mum on the wattage but said that 91.3 reaches all of Los Gatos and parts of Campbell. Slick plays classic rock, jazz and "a little bit of Bach" when not turning the controls over to guest DJs like the members of Creech. The station can be heard Sundays and Wednesdays, 8pm*3am. Meanwhile, the next Gaslighter Theater show stars Monkey, Blue Beat Stompers, Steadyups, Lucky Strike and Pigs in Space on Friday (Sept. 5). As always: all ages and five bucks. From http://www.svcn.com/archives/lgwt/05...PirateCat.html Monkey Man stepped into the world of microbroadcasting about a year ago, with his friend Michael Magic at Free-Radio San Jose, 93.7 FM, but had to leave the station after some of his on-air hi-jinks went too far. After that, he started working with Dr. Slick, whose station, Free-Radio Los Gatos, is on 91.3 FM on Sunday and Wednesday nights from 8 p.m. to 11 p.m. "Then Dr. Slick said I should get my own station, so I went down to Fry's and got one of those little radio kits for, like, $30." Dr. Slick gave Monkey Man an old one-watt amplifier, and another friend, Austin Tatious of KKUD 104.1 in Willow Glen, donated a mixing board. Pirate Cat was on the air. ------------- end of Web quotes --------------- At the time, I asked: "It looks like we can look forward to a bigger signal from Radio Free Lost Gatos (or is it Free-Radio Los Gatos?). No more 'all of Los Gatos and parts of Campbell'! Or are you be building FM transmitters and amplifiers for sale?" It looks like we now have the answer. Roy Lewallen, W7EL |
