7335 was occupied 24/7 by RFPI in the late 90s before University For
Peace canned them. I wasn't aware that WRNO was still on the air as
late as 2005. I thought they had disappeared years before that.


Really? Where was this station located? How could this persist for
any length of time on top of CHU in view of international agreements
and treaties?


Other stations have used 7335 over the years, so it's nothing new. As for Radio
for Peace International (Costa Rica), I don't recall them using 7335, however
they did use 7385. WRNO made use of 7355 many years ago.

You're right, it WAS 7385. Duh! But it's been so LONG since RFPI was
on air, at least 7 or 8 years, and my memory has always been terrible.
I never paid a whole lot of attention to RFPI, anyway. But apparently
they had a small but loyal band of listeners, as they discovered when
the standoff with the university came about and they were locked in
the studio for several months. People showed up to pass cans of food
through the fence.
