[HCDX] Voice of Afghanistan

["Andy Sennitt" <andys@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I called the station this afternoon on the number given in their press
release.
The Voice of Afghanistan says it broadcasts via ?a powerful shortwave
transmitter', but the man behind the station, Said Jalal Karim, would only
tell me that the transmitter is located "in Europe", and did not wish to be
more specific. The studios are located at 21 Worship Street, London, EC2A
2DW. The station can be contacted by phone at +44 207 382 9610 or by E-mail
at afbc9950@xxxxxxxxxxx
The phone number and address turn out to be a company called Coppernob
Business Services (http://www.coppernob.net/), an Internet service company
which also runs various Web radio stations. However, when I called they
answered as "Voice of Afghanistan", which kinda surprised me.
