Iran Radio, VOA being jammed ?
A very interesting story!
http://www.msnbc.com/news/936772.asp?0cv=CB10&cp1=1 U.S. satellite feeds to Iran jammed May be linked to the anniversary of student uprisings By Robert Windrem NBC NEWS PRODUCER NEW YORK, July 9 - U.S. government officials as well as Iranian Americans and communications satellite operators confirm that all U.S.-based satellite broadcasts to Iran are being jammed by an unknown group or individual, possibly Iranian agents operating out of Latin America. OVER THE PAST several months, private Iranian-American groups have begun increasing their broadcasts into Iran using Telstar-12, a communications satellite over the eastern Atlantic. All are trying to encourage protests against the regime in Tehran. Iranians, using small satellite dishes, have been able to receive the broadcast, whose mix of news, entertainment and exhortations to protest have gained a large audience, particularly in Tehran. Then on Sunday, the Voice of America began its Farsi-language broadcasts. Not long afterward, the jamming intensified. Over the past few days - as the fourth anniversary of the country's most widespread protests approached - the broadcasts have been jammed, not in Iran but somewhere in the Americas, according to officials and investigators.
