Yo, Ho, radi-O
Looks like the pirate radio station broadcasting at 100.7 FM is off the air, at least for now. The station, which broadcasts a mix of dance, techno and trance tunes, hits all of Hollywood, Los Feliz, Echo Park and Silver Lake. It also broadcasts a crisper, higher quality stereo signal than the city's other pirates. The station has gone off the air from time to time in its three year history, so it's unclear whether the people behind it are taking another break--or if the FCC finally got to them.
As for the station at 104.7 FM broadcasting out of Silver Lake, I haven't checked lately to see if it's still on the air. But the 104.7 FM pirate had been broadcasting the programming at KillRadio.org.
Meanwhile, there's still no word from the Monkey Man about when he plans to bring back Pirate Cat Radio. The station, which had broadcasted at 87.9 FM, has been down since the start of the year. The Monkey Man is still soliciting funds to repair his busted transmitter. Pirate Cat Radio's 30 watt transmitter made it by far the strongest pirate in town.
