James needs to do more Man Lab.
The PC brigade won't allow it.
check out The Grand Tour
i read meth lab
agree
@@GalenIRL to be fair James May's meth lab would be a fun watch
I legitimately thought James would gather some old equipment in a dingy garage and broadcast on medium wave, but instead of playing out terrible drum and bass he would slam some trad jazz interspersed with duck facts.
He needs to post a video from somewhere in the Maldon area I understand the old equipment is at Nigel Harris home he set up a studio in his dingy Garage with the old studio 1 from the Ross Revenge when they upgraded the studio to digital equipment and Dave Foster looks good since he lost weight in his suite at the end of the video
It would be hilarious if he slammed some bangers. Where I live there are quite a few illigal stations but most of them play the worst drum and bass/house you've ever heard. I did find a reggae station once, the host was stoned out his box and dropped some wicked tunes, made the A12 grid lock much more fun!
Todays lads have nothing on are generation the real pirates like my Uncle Mike Jan Penske
@@VickyGeagan oh yes we fucking do hahaa
Evi1M4chine your a fuck tard... there's no such thing as a bad genre of music just songs you don't like.
James May. He rambles on, he likes a pint, he is a national institution. Cheers.
I will happily listen to James May constantly talking on the radio. Its just so calming
“Secret local rooftop” - Literally on the roof of Christ The Cornerstone Church 😂
Its only a matter of time before the radio police track and confiscate you're transmitter. You could have transmitter sites located all over the city and keep remotely switching between sites to confuse the attempts of direction finding.
They dont have the time or the funding. I've been transmitting for over two years on an FM frequency.
@@thra5herxb12s I have been doing it for 5 years with pretty powerful transmitters and long range, but I moved to MW now and I cover the whole large town. Had it like that for a year, no problem.
You can apply for a limited temporary license from ofcom for special events like this.
Or you could have a discreet setup in a van/car/truck and don't stay in one spot for longer than a few days. It would prevent the FCC finding a site and getting a DNA sample.
Is it still so impossible to legitimately set up a new local FM station and apply for a frequency ? It was said years ago that the FM band would open up once DAB got going.
We used to do this too but over the 27Mc radio. Exactly the same. Pass on the coordinates, and then with pencil and paper. Lots of fun!
0:13 Building a Viking longship "rubbish?" BOLLOCKS... You lot need to amass all the viking kit and togs, get properly berserk on mushrooms, invade Calais, ram-raid a wine shop, and guzzle the spoils back at ManLab. That's easily a two-parter.
I'm down
As a Brit, it was surprising that he turned down an opportunity to invade Calais
Sounds like a plan 👍
James wore that tshirt on a topgear episode, I think it was when they stayed overnight at a hotel and there was a racetrack in the garden and Jeremys sls had a broken tyre due to him for going to town on the NASCAR track
"You and I both know: dead air is a crime." - Dave Clifton, Radio Norwich
There's a shitload of garbage in the air, I'll take dead air anytime in the week!
"....... and I think it's terrible that you have to fill it with swearing on your show."
Alan Partridge - "Unfortunately, Dave, you are bang wrong. It's one minute past seven, it's your show, you're responsible for the output. I am technically a guest and you've failed to control me. Read the small print on your cone-tract."🤣
Sounds like the beginnings of Sealand
Hello, this is Radio ManLab 107 point North FM, We are proud to bring you the only Pirate Radio that is fully Licensed and endorsed by our Corporate Sponsors and our overlords the British Government approve of.
A lap top, a transmitter, an antenna, a huge music collection and a total disregard if anyone listens or not. I play full albums from my bedroom. Good idea to keep the transmitter outside. Let take it.
"A deer ran up to me and started nuzzling my knees because I think mum got shot the night before". Howling 😆😆😆
Ayy, that oo gauge class 91 and the LNER tender eluding to his love of railways. Good man James
I love top gear and all those personalities.
That's pure class 👌
Love that shirt!!!
You better stay on radio...
never needed that much kit in my day
Why the hell can you be fined for dead air?
Konstantin Stelzner don't apply logic to law.. Be a good NPC
i guess because you therefor block those frequencies and dont play anything on them... i think?
For the same reason you can be fined for parking in a handicapped spot, You're using space that others could make use of.
Penis Anthony Dublinier in English please sir?
Blake Belladonna you still can. Just plug an Ipod in XD
I'm a fan of pirate radio so I enjoyed the episode, but the part I laughed out loud was 6:42.
Loved the concept.👍👍👍
God I love James May, he's the greatest bloke ever
reminds me of episode 7 of the Goodies when they made there own radio station :P
I fully expected him to broadcast on an AM station.
The British celebrate their history which makes their citizens, not government, quite loveable. In Canada generally, and with a few exceptions, we adore the British people. Good thing since we are the Commonwealth. Sounds scary but really quite COOL. Love from Canada, the land across the sea.
a british out door version of "aprairie home companion". sublime.
I was a big fan of Laser pirate radio in 1984
I love James May
I only ever tried to paddle a crackle once. I ended up in the middle of the river spinning round in circles 🤣
I love the idea of this.
We need more James may radio
This reminds me of Ricky Julian and Bubbles in the middle of the American/Canadian border on a river.
Second Side Up did this during the 1970's and thereafter, and it is on the BBC and here on TH-cam.
What fun!
In the netherlands they still do it in the rural parts, if you drive and let your radio search a chanel you sure to find some piratenradio
Some idiot pirate was playing music on the freq. Of Qmusic the other day 😂 how to get busted 101
Jim mate you guys are too much I sooo love the mellow show and you audio production work the guys across the pond give all of you their best love Peter Phillips flat and Dave Porter looks good in you video clip. Gotta love the pirates of Cobra Mist limited and Merlin communications. Give Andy, and Nigel our best from across the pond and keep a listen for Radio New York International and their new supporters group.
I would honestly love to see James build a viking long boat.
It no secret roof top transmitter, the signal can be tracked with a direction finder. U need to take the transmitter off shore and point it back at the city from international waters.
That's a narrow boat James, not a long boat!
Well technically its long conpared to its width...
Northamptonshire not Bedfordshire - Did you know that Radio Caroline now broadcasts legally on 648 AM
Buckinghamshire not Northamptonshire...

Please upload the Man Lab 'Junk Mail machine system' Video. Cheers
Nice Goldring Lenco and the Garrard 301.
99.9 klmr the best latino music ever to air live from billings montana!!!
enjoyed it!
Informative, but still the best comedy on TV 😄
Very helpful Thank You
I would love to know for that antenna on that roof how many watts power did the TRANSMITTER have just a standart 100watts or a 1000+ watts witch just 100watts station would covs the most of Bedfordshire.
Milton Keynes isn't in Bedfordshire. It's in Buckinghamshire
It's Linslade in Bedfordshire, just outside Milton Keynes, across the Buck's border.
@@BenFuller321 It's clearly Cosgrove at the start.
Kid Charlemagne always spoke the truth
malcom in the middle?
He should have stopped by Gilmour's river boat studio. That would increase his listeners.
Just feed the world Joni Mitchell, Pink Flod and The Beatles puttering down a canal. Nice.
Build you own viking longship would be amazing!
His deer joke was hilarious
Much like REA BOW on Sunday Long Live on you tube nice show tune in on every Sunday
They should streamline home radio applications and make it much easier for citizens to license a little part of the spectrum for a home radio setup under 100 Watts.
You know radio Caroline and radio Jackie Are perfectly legal licensed radio stations now
Yes
The whole point is to keep your studio secret-- that's why it's on the water. Doesn't help when you announce your location.
How to create? More how to be a cool radio guy with cool gear and a big team :D
108.9 on your dial
❤❤Namibia 🇳🇦
2 4 6 8 James May
is fucking great!
it isn't "pirate" if you are required to get a license.
I built a 1,021 watt FM STEREO (with real 19KHz pilot tone), but it pulls far more
than that from my off grid power so I was not able to do it for long as it overheated and died.
Do you sell your transmitters?
Is this just a big goodies reference
So I'm guessing like if you did something like this in your backyard they'd be able to pinpoint your location and fine you or something?
Needs more "FIGNUTS"!
Please what equipment do I need to setup mine please
im gonna recreate " The Hallow Speaks "
What all needed, do without license... What device to buy?
The issue is you have a repeater antenna and now therefore broadcasting from land. Those antennas would be confiscated.

3:17 James is such a wally
great for dooms day or zombie apocalypse
Consult the national club for a listing of local clubs where you live which is the best way to get into this fascinating lifetime Hobby.
Every nation in the world allows amateur ham radio except for North Korea.
108.9 Kurupt
old man's podcast
That ol Dog tho
Does anyone know if manlab radio is still going?
How to get arrested.
I expect him to go to Sealand
So if i were to make a pirate radio station, would i be allowed to air explicit music? (Im 13)
Talking about a pirate radio station in Brentford, hmmm?
Aidan Allen k to the u to the r to the u to the p to the t kurupt fm family
Up to 25,000 for even a second of dead air?
Shit like that is why everyone rebelled and made their own country.
it is the same radio
How are they funded?
ive sniffed so much coke tonight my jaws swinging and im just sat here smokin a spliff watching this its great
SeaLand time
for this to kinda work, wouldn't you need to be at least 12 miles off the cost of the UK?
I should learn how because the way things are going in the future years there might not be an EFFECTIVE FCC left to ENFORCE it's laws in the states.
Bulging vulva?
Mobile data is still a crap way of linking to the transmitter site. Not reliable enough.
This was funny as fuck 😂😂😂
06:05 Man Lab Dog!
i thought it said James May's Meth Lab....
So that's where jimmy wound up. I didn't know BBC canned him, along with Unowho. Oh yeah, the secret xmtr is on Bayswater, between #300 and 400. Glad to help.
Why does this remind me of Alan Partridge..? Lol...
4:59 When the Metropolitan Police will be after y'all, then that will be a "very expensive problem"
