Dublin, closed down. Based at the former St. Ita\u2019s Hospital complex in the seaside village of Portrane, the radio station began broadcasting as a pirate in December 1983. A report by Anoraks Ireland from March 1984 lists \u2018Hospital Radio, c\/o The Rehabilitation Hospital, Portrane, Co. Dublin\u2019 and the station features on 97.1 FM in logs from 1985 onwards. There are few known recordings of the station so we are delighted to share this short extract from a show presented by Se\u00e1n Cahill.

However, unlike others who risked stiff penalties if caught, St. Ita\u2019s was granted a dispensation from the requirement to close down by the then Minister for Communications, Ray Burke, in whose constituency the station was located. St. Ita\u2019s Hospital Radio manager from 1989, Tom Noctor, said that it was in effect the first independent station in Ireland to be licensed, as the dispensation was granted before licences were awarded to larger commercial stations. Apart from a brief break in 1994, St. Ita\u2019s broadcast continuously on low power (89.5 FM) to Portrane and later also online but on 23<sup>rd<\/sup> November 2024, it announced on its Facebook page that it would close down a week later on 30<sup>th<\/sup> November. A new online station replaced the original FM service. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"358\" data-id=\"10311\" src=\"https:\/\/pirate.ie\/archive\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/closedown-banner-1024x358.jpg\" alt=\"St. Ita&#039;s Hospital Radio closes after more than 40 years\" class=\"wp-image-10311\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pirate.ie\/archive\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/closedown-banner-1024x358.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/pirate.ie\/archive\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/closedown-banner-300x105.jpg 300w, https:\/\/pirate.ie\/archive\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/closedown-banner-768x268.jpg 768w, https:\/\/pirate.ie\/archive\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/closedown-banner-1536x536.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/pirate.ie\/archive\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/closedown-banner.jpg 1847w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><\/figure><\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><em>After serving St. Ita\u2019s Hospital for over 40 years, the station will officially go off the air, marking the end of an era for the cherished service that has brought comfort, entertainment and a sense of connection to countless listeners, staff, family and friends at St. Ita\u2019s Hospital Campus, Portrane, Co.
