While docked in Rotterdam, the following FM stations can be received:

103.2 Radio Veronica (RDS = 'VERONICA')
103.5 Radio Veronica
104.6 100% NL
105.1 Smart FM (RDS = 'SMART FM')

and, again, others which could not be ID'd.

On the coach from Amsterdam to Rotterdam, I noticed a few billboard ads for Radio Veronica.
Veronica started in the 60's as an offshore 'pirate' - good to see them not only surviving, but alive and well, to this day. A tribute to the liberal nature of Dutch society, I guess.

In my opinion, the UK authorities should legalise Caroline and give them at least a MW, and preferably an FM, frequency. And open a few coffeeshops too!
