    Between 1991 and 1993, there was a south Dublin pirate called NSR. A lot of presenters went through it during that period. It had mixed programming. But who from NSR is still around in Irish radio?

    Here is what I have come up with.

    Kevin Branigan (owner/operator), aka John J MacKenzie: CEO of Radio Nova

    Barry Dunne : 98FM

    Ralph McGarry - Freedom FM (online and temporary-licensed)

    Al Gibbs - FM104

    Daragh O'Sullivan, aka Stephen Davitt: One of the principals of annual temporary licensed Christmas FM (and online all year round)

    Any more still around?

    Kevin Branigan is also CEO of Classic Hits through the company Bay Broadcasting Ltd. Mike Ormonde, one of the founders of NSR, is also a director of Bay Broadcasting. Bay Broadcasting also has a share in Sunshine 106.8.

    It is a strange thing that NSR had many presenters, most of whom turned up on other pirates in the 1990s, but I could only find a relatively small number of connections with current Irish radio.

    The final push….

    I can't believe no-one has any other examples.
