Worldspace Radio
Portable radio satellite system using the Afristar satellite , In 2002 Radio
Caroline started broadcasting on this system. At first the transmissions
were free to receive. It then went to a pay system and codes had to be punched
into the keyboard. Quite a good system at the time to receive Caroline mobile.
I used to use mine with the dish on the back parcel shelf in the car.
Unfortunately Worldspace went bankrupt in 2008 and Carolines transmissions from
Afristar ceased.
A Caroline Car Sticker from the 1990s. Although the station has not broadcast 24hours per day since 1990, her listeners still regard her as number 1
A new item that got issued in 1999.The Radio Caroline Mouse mat. Currently available from Radio Caroline for five pounds certainly brightens out the computer room.
