About This Station

**LV18 Radio Mi Amigo** is a unique offshore and pirate radio station broadcasting live from the historic LV18 lightship, permanently afloat in Harwich Harbour, United Kingdom. Specialising in oldies and classic hits, the station celebrates the spirit of the original offshore pirate radio era, with a particular focus on special shows and themed weekends such as its annual Pirate Radio Weekend. The station broadcasts 24 hours a day, and can be heard via Alexa Smart Speakers, Roberts Internet Radios, and online. Regular and guest presenters, including Stephen Foster (Foz), keep the retro format alive, with highly requested features like Paul Windsor's 'When Motown Came To The...' specials. The LV18 has hosted live radio for over a quarter of a century, and despite a devastating fire in February 2024 that destroyed the studio, the station continues to operate and seeks donations for the full restoration of this historic vessel.
