Location

Because this station is a pirate radio station, the signal strength varies across Stilwater, often dropping in volume when driving around and making the station impossible to access in some areas, especially towards the northeast end of the city, such as the Hotels & Marina or the Museum district.

Due to the dropouts, it is possible to narrow down the area from which The Underground is transmitted, or the exact co-ordinates are specified in the game files. It is transmitted through the lower radio tower on Mount Claflin.

In the attached map, the inner circle shows the maximum signal strength radius, and the outer circle shows the minimum signal strength radius. The station cannot be accessed outside the outer circle, and the radio plays interference between the two circles.

Trivia

Although this is supposedly a Pirate radio station, it still plays commercials and Newscasts from Jane Valderamma.
"House of Cards" plays during the opening cutscene for Burning Down the House.^[2]
