In 1980 Cary went to Ireland with Robbie Robinson to set up Sunshine Radio. In 1981 he returned to Ireland again to set up Radio Nova, which was the most successful commercial Top 40 radio station in Ireland to date in terms of professionalism and listenership. Many of the programming philosophies on Nova were based around Los Angeles station KIIS-FM.
He operated Compshop in North London in the late 1970s. In 1978 Cary went to Ireland with Robbie Robinson and DJ Roger Swann to set up Sunshine Radio with the stated objective of broadcasting to holidaymakers in Majorca. The cars they travelled in (a Lincoln Continental and a Mercedes) contained much of the broadcasting equipment that they intended to fit to an ancient wooden keeled sloop. Unfortunately the Mercedes broke down on the M1 but the Lincoln Continental made it to Larne where the "radio ship" was being prepared. DJ Roger Swann left after 10 days or so and ended up working on the voice of Peace and the pirate radio ship didn't make further than Dublin... The final fate of the radio ship is unknown but rumor has it that some broadcasts to the Irish republic were made from the ship..
