Mark Sloane

Mark Sloane worked on Radios Caroline South & North and Radio 355, as well as King Radio and Radio 390 as ‘Mark Hammerton’. These photos date from his time on Caroline North in 1967. He has previously shared some studio recordings from his stay on King Radio and Radio 390 with The Pirate Radio Hall of Fame. They can be found here.

Caroline Martin

The photos above all date from the mid-sixties but these are from more than twenty years later when Radio Caroline was broadcasting from the mv Ross Revenge. Caroline Martin worked for the station from 1986 to 1990 and has generously allowed us to publish her photos on The Pirate Radio Hall of Fame. She says “I have hundreds more; I just need to learn to use a scanner!”

Since these were published Caroline Martin has shared lots more photos on Facebook. You can see some of them here.

With grateful thanks to Tony, Ron, Steve, Mark and Caroline.
