In Part I of this series (see the March, 1998 Journal), I presented the story of radio broadcasting in the Indian subcontinent up until the time of Indian independence at midnight on August 14, 1947. In this part, I take up the story of radio broaacasting in India following its independence from Great Britain. Then we look at radio broadcasting in Pakistan since independence.
As many of our regular readers know, we at THE PIRATE RADIO REPORT had been keeping an eye on the latest radio ship, the MV Electra which was being outfitted in East Boston, MA.
Well, the ship left Boston sometime in March. Allan Weiner has finished his part of the project and the rest of the project is being overseen by disbarred lawyer, Dr. Scott Becker.
