Cavan Online Radio Interview May 2019

On a recent visit to both legal and pirate radio stations in the border region, with thanks to Patsy Sheridan I visited the studios of Cavan Online Radio. Based in an large house at the back of a national school, the signs on the path for 'the men's shed' led me to the studios.


Upon arrival I was greeted by station manager Daniel Downey who filled me on the station's history and future plans. The studios would make many legal stations jealous and is a credit to the volunteers who keep the station alive for an ever increasing audience. It's eclectic mix of programming caters for a wide variety of interests and listeners in far flung fields. A link for the Cavan diaspora, the station allows provides training for those wishing to understand how radio works from in front and behind the microphone.


This is my interview with Daniel.
