Paull Barnett passed away this morning, he was the owner of Radio North 846 AM.
As far as I remember, Paul worked on offshore pirates and also at Manx Radio, before
coming to Ireland , R.I.P...

Sad to hear that. May he rest in peace.

R.I.P Paul, the 846 signal got into the south of Ireland quite well, also very clear around the Giants Causeway when we went there for a holiday break last year. Quite an eclectic range of programming on the station but good audio and a strong signal.

thankyou for your kind words, I saw my dad as a titan and it seems from all the internet posts about his passing, it seems I was not the only one. His life was radio, being a "disc jockey" and building transmitters, raising huge Ariel's and being a constant in so many people's lives from WABC in the early 80's to Gem Am Off-shores such as MANX and finally owner operator of
hit Pirate station RADIO NORTH. I wish I was more like him. Thankyou all again
