I was watching the NBC Nightly News with Brian Williams last night.
NBC has a correspondent who is being driven around in northern Libya.
As the correspondent listened to Qaddafi's broadcast rant, a camera
shot aimed at the in-dash car radio revealed the digital display
showing 972. I suppose that's 97.2 MHz, unless it's a MW station at
972 kHz. That's a Qaddafi-controlled radio station.
Meanwhile, the anti-Qaddafi protesters have established Radio Free
Libya. There seems to be a MW operation and, I'm thinking, an FM
operation too. Is there anything on HF? I haven't checked Glenn Hauser
or the "Media Network blog from Radio Netherlands Worldwide," but I'm
sure he is listening for just such a thing.

"The Media Network blog from Radio Netherlands Worldwide today posted
a roundup of reports about radio inside Libya. Blogger Andy Sennitt
relays reception reports from Denmark of a high-powered mediumwave
station (called AM in the US) in El Beida that apparently is taken
over by protestors, while other Libyan mediumwave stations continue to
air pro-Qaddafi material. The same Danish DXer reports receiving this
station, identified as Radio Free Libya, broadasting at 1125 KHz."
Soon, we may have only recordings of Qaddafi to remember him by.
