Radio Paradise is a Dutch radio station.

This transmitter came In december 2004, the offshore station Radio Paradise, temporarily on the AM 828 kHz (362 m). This transmitter is an initiative of Quality Radio by Ruud Pal, who earlier in the 1990s, a Radio Caroline had in the ether . This drive is a nonstopoldieszender, jamming oldies, such as the drive reports. In 2006 was that the station can be heard on 1224 kHz (245 m) and on 1584 kHz (189 m), two of the total of six (828, 1035, 1224, 1395, 1557 and 1584 kHz, or 362, 290, 245, 215, 193 and 189 m) Dutch medium wave frequencies that Quality Radio property. Meanwhile, since the end of november 2006 to date the 1224 kHz (245 m) from the air. In addition, Ruud also sent out via a Pal 1557 kHz (193 m) station in Amsterdam. To this was 24 h/7 d non-stop music listening almost exclusively Dutch-speaking with the occasional commercial, just as on his 1584 kHz-transmitter to Utrecht-Lunetten. ==Transmitter in Utrecht[ Edit] == By now he had obtained authorization to broadcast on may the 828 kHz (362 m), the 1035 kHz (290 m), the 1224 kHz (245 m) and the 1557 kHz (193 m) in the course of the autumn of 2007 again returned to "the State" because he is not a "normal" use of these four medium wavefrequencies -since entered the freqentieherindeling Zero base that on 1 June 2003, in the opinion of the Agency Telecom that all "issued" frequencies are managing. The licence to transmit on the may 1395 kHz (215 m) has Ruud Pal sold to Radio London-imitation transmitter Big L. Only on the 1584 kHz (189 m) may he still broadcasting: This transmitter to Lunetten (Utrecht) is continuously with non-stop music with a radio spot from time to time and the mention of the mailing address, post office box number if the same Quality Radio. In addition there are occasional stationcalls of Radio Paradise to hear.

The installation consists of a Harris to Lunetten type BC-1A hybrid developed for medium wave transmitter use. The cheerful carrier power of the transmitter is 1 kilowatt amplitudemodulatie, with a maximum capacity of 125%. However, the set capacity modulation for Radio Paradise is limited to 80%. Both the transmitter and the modulator use two directly-heated triodes 833Atype, developed by RCA. Both the transmitter and the modulator use solid-state components in the send steps. The transmitter is kristalgestuurd. The used antenna is made up of a bodemgevoede kwartgolfstraler antennemast converted into existing timber-framed. This has been accomplished by the mast to the foot by cutting, after which insulators are placed between the released mast construction and the concrete base. The thus formed insulated vertical radiator is in resonance brought on 1584 kHz through an L network antenna editor between the transmitter and the antenna, made to the base of the antenna mast. It is also for the antenna around the mast against a comprehensive capacity.This is done by a large number of threads to dig in the ground, each a quarter wavelength in length (about 45 meters). The audio signal for the transmitter is via internet from the studio to the transmitter location.

On the Lunetten location of Radio Paradise is also a 500 watt solid-state medium wave transmitter present, if back-up for the BC-1A hybrid transmitter described above. ==Hot Radio[ Edit] == On the 1332 kHz (225 m) is pretty much the same to hear (including mention of the PO box address) as on the 1584 kHz (189 m) with the only difference that can be heard from time to time that "listening to Hot Radio Plus ". This frequency is issued with effect from 1 June 2003 to Hot Radio that only now after more than four years from this date, the date that the license to this radio station on the 1332 kHz (225 m) to go on this frequency, obtained via broadcasting Ruud Pal let testing.
