Chris has been on the fringes of radio for a long time, starting with a hospital station in 1978, followed by landbased pirate radio. Offshore radio beckoned, with spells on the Voice of Peace from ‘Somewhere in the Mediterranean’ in 1987, and Radio Caroline from the North Sea in 1989/90.
During the 1990’s Chris was involved in various Restricted Service Licence stations in his home town of Birmingham. Due to life commitments, he left radio for 20 years, before being introduced to the LV18 in 2017, since when he has been part of the Radio Mi Amigo Team.
Chris also presents a weekly show on Radio Seagull, based on a sister lightship, the LV8, in The Netherlands. There is nothing quite like broadcasting from a ship. Chris says he feels honoured to have presented shows from four floating radio stations!
You can hear Chris Cooper’s latest daytime show on Saturdays at 7am, repeated at 1pm. Chris also has an album orientated show on Saturday nights at 11pm, repeated at 5am each Sunday morning.
