Ik wacht met smart op de opnames van 16 oktober 1987, dat was de dag van "The big hurricane" in Engeland en de Ross Revenge had daar heel veel problemen mee, lees "The wet and wild history of Radio Caroline" van Hans Knot (pagina 119)

de dag van "The big hurricane" in Engeland en de Ross Revenge had daar heel veel problemen mee

 

Een van de zwaarste stormen in de lange zeezender geschiedenis.

 

Steve Conway verteld: '' the whole of South-East England was being devastated by hurricane force winds, with immense destruction to property, injury and loss of life. Thousands of trees were being uprooted, roofs torn off, electricity cables and TV transmitter masts felled, ships were being blown aground high onto beaches — and we were 18 miles out at sea, unaware that all shipping had headed for safe ports, and we were the only ones still out there. ''

 

Everything was white. Flying foam filled the air higher than the top of the ships bridge, and through every window all you could see was white foam, flying through the air at more than a hundred miles an hour. Visibility was about three yards. We couldn't even see the tower from the bridge, just blue flashes through the white, as the foam caused the thousands of watts of broadcast power to arc and flash with the unexpected wetness. The tower was only a few feet from the bridge window, but if it hadn't been for those flashes you wouldn't even have known it was there.

 

Incredibly, both Caroline on 558 and Monique on 963 were on the air as usual, as the arcing didn't seem to be doing any damage to the equipment.'' 

 

Hoe het verder ging die (moeilijke) dag en de vele (technische) problemen die opgelost moesten worden door Peter Philips, Mike Watts en Steve Conway, lees je via de volgende link.
