A pirate story (1980) (occasion of Radio
exhibit March, 2016)
I was in love with electronics during high school.
Like for this hardware hack.
I had also been the technician for a small pirate
radio station of ours in 1980
called "Radio Tutti Frutti":
1980 (the picture, seems actually from 1981),
Oliver (Olli) to the right. Click
for larger picture.
Memorial plate 30 years later
(photographed 2012). In 1980/1981,
we had cemented it well into that rock.
The vandalism indicates that not everybody
appreciated the statement
(yes, we had 6 hour per week
Latin classes at that time. The B.M.M.O
stands for Beat Merz, Matthias
Ackeret,Matthias Knill,Oliver Knill):
"At this holy location, Radio Tutti Frutti s
acrificed itself for the freedom of the
Aether. Shall the remembrance for this
heroism be eternal. Fortes Fortuna
(Terenz), B.M.M.O, Kalendis Octobribus,
MCMLXXXI".
A comic from 1981 [PDF]
(created by Beat Merz and Matthias Ackeret),
narrates the actual pirate story:
broadcasting from the Cholfirst (Map) near
Schaffhausen, the sender got raided
but we could escape. The radio equipment
(including the electronics and antenna
on top of a tree) was lost.
With many Radio stations appearing
like that (of course, others were more
professional) the pressure grew.
It eventually led to a drop of the radio
monopoly in Switzerland, and private
radio stations got allowed. The
biggest radio pirate at that time was
Radio 24, which broad casted from Italy.
About the history of radio 24 of in
German and Youtube.
Also the clip to the right appears in
that movie "Jolly Roger, e
in Kapitel Mediengeschichte" (2004).
Direct Media Links:
Webm, Ogg Quicktime.
Matthias Ackeret tells the story
in the documentary movie:
Jolly Roger, "A chapter of
media history"
, produced by the Swiss film
studio Mesch & Ugge,
AG, (2004). T
railer. The DVD of the movie
can be ordered
here.
