Radio Telstar International began broadcasting on 7th November 1977 at 8pm broadcasting on FM in the Edinburgh area. We originally broadcast on very low power however it was enough to attract a very good audience and within a few months we moved to what was then a much more desirable Medium Wave on 222metres, 1332 Khz with just 25 watts. later we aquired a much more powerful 350 watt transmitter from Radio Caroline (Scotland) and RTI began to attract more and more professional Dj's. By 1983 we were simutainiously broadcasting on FM and also to Europe on Short Wave. Broadcasting every weekend and on public holidays we attracted a substantial following and enjoyed many years serving the people of Edinburgh, the Lothians and Fife. Sadly in 1984 we suffered two court actions as the authorities felt we were becoming too successful and the pressure to take Telstar off the air was proving too much to be able to provide a Radio Station which was worthy to our loyal listeners. It was decided it was best to call it a day and reluctantly we closed down. Since then it was always our mission to bring Edinburgh's most loved Pirate Radio Station back and now here it is. Welcome to the new legal and fully licenced, Radio Telstar International.
