This is the landing page for Boston area mediumwave (and some FM) pirates. The Boston area, from Worcester east and from Manchester NH south, through to Brockton on the South Shore is rife with pirate radio activity. Almost all of this activity is not typical "hobby" pirates, rather they are generally ethnic in nature and serve a specific community, although some operate as quasi-commercial enterprises. FCC enforcement has been absent, particularly on mediumwave, although some FMs that get "too big" are busted, usually as the result of interference complaints from a legal FM.
