Radio Sunrise

Radio Sunrise was a pirate radio station that broadcast from Eikeloh on the medium wave frequency 1485 kHz from Easter 1977 to Pentecost 1982. Founded by Franz-Ludwig Pohlmeier (alias Roger Clarke, later Paul Meier), the team had previously started as Swinging Radio Europe on 1394 kHz in Lippstadt. Following the 1978 Geneva Wave Plan, it switched to 1485 kHz and broadcast 20 hours of rock music on Saturdays and Sundays.

On March 1, 2012, an internet radio station with the same name was launched, with former staff members of the original involved. It focuses on techno music and is only available online. Official information about the programming, presenters, or contact details is not documented. The broadcast area of the pirate station was limited to the vicinity of Eikeloh.
