\"HalliDial\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Saturday, I published\u00a0a post referencing Cold War Clandestine Radio from Greece<\/a>\u00a0with links to Richard Cummings’ excellent website Cold War Radio Vignettes<\/a>.<\/p>\n

My post was written some time earlier and scheduled to publish Saturday while I was traveling. Unfortunately, the Cold War Radio Vignettes articles\u00a0I had linked to were removed prior to Saturday.<\/p>\n

I contacted Richard Cummings who has kindly assembled a small PDF booklet with the text from all of the posts I had referenced\u00a0and is allowing me to share it here on the SWLing Post<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Richard\u00a0asks that if\u00a0any Post<\/em> readers\u00a0have information about these clandestine\u00a0broadcasts and is willing to share it with him, he would me most thankful. His contact information is on the front page of the PDF.<\/p>\n

Click here to download the PDF booklet<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Again, many thanks to Richard Cummings for making this free PDF booklet available to us!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
