After 44 years presenting his radio show, Deke Duncan is a bit of an institution.
The only thing is, it’s broadcast from his garden shed and the only listener he’s ever had is his wife (although, having remarried, technically it’s two listeners).
All that is set to change, however, after a local radio station tracked him down when it saw him in action on a vintage BBC Nationwide report.

I think I saw a report about this years ago. He didn't use RF, he ran a cable into the house to a loudspeaker.
There's also and on-line spoof hospital radio station that comically messes up and often says inappropriate things to patients. I'll see if I can find it again. However, it's not a real hospital radio station, it's a send up. A bit like the Alan Partridge character.

I found a link. It wasn't on-line, it was on BBC Radio 2. The Ivan Brackenby Show, written and performed by Tom Binns...
This is just one link, there are other episodes.
