Hello and welcome to this weeks edition.
Firstly we must Sincerely oplogize to "AW" re the item about the

out-dated.

LEGAL OR PIRATE ????
I just received this response from AFRTS re the new "stations" on
4278.5 and 12689.5.

>Bill,
> In reply to your E-mail. It is a puzzlement. We are guess that

>AFSTRS on the L Band and retransmitting (illegally). I will be

Until we find out where this station is broadcasting from, it is
of
no use to try for a QSL. The AFRTS HQ (the organization overseeing
AFN broadcasts) does not recognize this as a legitimate broadcast.

******************
JAPANESE WWW SITES:
I became tired to outdated link lists and notoriously
inaccurate URL:s printed on WRTH, so I had to compile
myself a new link list to Japanese stations. I even
found some brand new webpages - at least I haven't seen
any clue of them anywhere before. (Aomori BC, R Fukushima, etc.)
Of course, if you haven't installed Japanese fonts, most
of the pages are gibberish to you, but so what. Even when
the text can be seen in kanji, most of us couldn't understand
it either... ;-) But the pages are colourful and funny.
Have a look:
http://www.sci.fi/~jln/lrh/jpwww.htm
Any additions and corrections are welcome! The URL:s for
Tokai Radio and RF Radio Nippon, for example, are still missing.
www.tokai.co.jp can tell you everything about Tokai Rubber
Company, but I think that's not what we want to know... :-)
(And while you are at it, try to brush up your Finnish with
the other pages of Lahti Radio Hobbyists.)

FREE RADIO BERKELEY:
FREE RADIO BERKELEY:
August 7th hearing regarding Federal injunction against Stephen Dunifer
On Friday, August 7, Federal Judge Claudia Wilken will hear oral
arguments on a motion to alter or amend judgement of her ruling of June
16 that enjoined Stephen Dunifer and, by extension, Free Radio
Berkeley, from broadcasting without a license and from encouraging
others to do so.
Free Radio Berkeley founder, Stephen Dunifer, contends that the
injunction is overly broad in its language and a direct attack on his
free speech rights guaranteed by the First Amendment to the
Constitution. The injunction was issued on the basis that Dunifer
hadn't applied for a license from the FCC and therefore had no standing
to raise the Constitutional issues in court.
However, there is no license available for a station under 100 watts
that
originates local programming. (Free Radio Berkeley was broadcasting at
60 watts.)
There are several judges who have expressed doubt about the
constitutionality of the current FCC policy banning stations with less
than 100 watts of power, including Judge Wilken in her first ruling on
the Dunifer case. So far, the FCC has been able to avoid dealing with
this issue in court.
Friends of the station are calling for all supporters of Free Radio
Berkeley and the larger movement for low power community radio to come
to a demonstration at the Oakland Federal Building at 13th and Clay
Streets (City Center BART) at 9 AM on Friday, August 7. The hearing
begins at 10 AM.
Please show your support for this vital First Amendment issue. Because
the injunction is also directed at those who are acting iin concerti
with Stephen Dunifer, supporters are asked to bring musical instruments.
