Cannot find sufficient sourcing to indicate that this person is a notable figure in radio/pirate radio. Anything that comes up on a Google search tends to be about his company with him mentioned trivially or not at all.
The books listed in "Further reading" cannot be verified to have SIGCOV of him. None are available in full text on GBooks, Internet Archive, or...elsewhere. I made a request at RSX about a week ago ( Wikipedia:WikiProject Resource Exchange/Resource Request#Grant Benson) but no dice as these are rather obscure books and the author didn't bother to provide page numbers. MrLinkinPark did respond to say that the second book was searchable for him and Benson's name does not appear in it, which leads me to believe that the author was simply listing topically related books rather than trying to cite content about Benson. ♠ PMC♠ (talk) 17:39, 7 September 2022 (UTC)
