Here's my idea: a studio where various immigrant groups, many of them
people from vital parts of the world (Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan), that
live in California produce programs with honest, uncensored news about
their homelands and that show how great their lives are in the US. We
could have sermons and Quran readings from liberal imams. Then contact a
transmitter broker like TDP and buy airtime on strategically located,
already existing tx's. This effort would be funded by some rich people
and by fundraisers in the immigrant communities. It would be sort of a
bottom-up VOA, a station singing the praises of America by the
countrymen of the oppressed peoples. I call it Radio California, but it
wouldn't be licensed and it wouldn't have an exclusive transmitter farm.
What do you think?

I think we are already doing here in Sydney. It's called Narrowcasting
and there are 28 stations on 152MHz broadcasting in everything from
Hindu to Greek to Cambodian.

And those who are listening will assume the transmissions originate
from Gitmo. Such a station would have the validity of Radio Korea.

I think the anti-Castro Cuban exiles are doing something like that.

It was pretty much an open secret that Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty were
CIA fronts, yet they had listeners and they had an impact.

I don't have any radios that can tune to 152mhz. Is VHF commonly available there in consumer receivers?

152 Mhz is a radio scanner frequency. www.cityfreq.com
or,google,152 Mhz Radio Frequency

I own two scanner radios,one of them is a Radio Shack Realistic Pro-91
and I dont remember which model my older Radio Shack Realistic scanner
radio is,it is a 16 channel scanner radio.It is around here somewhere.I
am going to phone an old guy I know in the morning.He buys older
electronic thingys such as computers and radios and he sells them to
help keep the wolf away from the door.Sometimes he has some good
electronic thingys for sale and at very reasonable prices too.

Mostly they use the cheaper Uniden scanners, hand helds, the smaller
tabletop units, that sort of thing. I also missed a couple of
additionals stations in Arabic at about 170MHz.
