Aren't they considered to be a clandestine station?

I thought about it, but their broadcasts are so regular, broadcast on fixed channels with high power,
it is characteristic of the BCS. It's a Cold War clone of Radio Free Europe, hardly a "clandestine".

The South Korean National Intelligence Service (NIS) operates both Voice of the People and also Echo of Hope - VOH. Before 1973,
Echo of Hope - VOH, was the Voice of Unification.
My February 23 observations:
KOREA SOUTH. Voice of the People back to normal frequencies at 0905 UT, Feb 23; heard 3480 // 3910 // 3930 // 4450 // 6520 // 6600 kHz.;
while ex 6250 is now only airing VOH.
Echo of Hope - VOH frequencies on Feb 23, at 0910 UT; heard 3990 // 4885 // 6000 // 6250 [no longer with VOP QRM] // 6355 // 9100 kHz.
These frequencies should be good through Feb 27 (Sunday).
5920, Voice of Freedom, on Feb 23. *0753 - Sign on; gong rung three times; Voice of Freedom ID; Republic of Korea choral National Anthem;
VOF FM frequency announcement; VOF singing station jingle; 0500 PM KST announcement; 0800, program "Hamkke tteonaneun eum-ag-

"Sporadic or non-traditional users of the shortwave bands may include:
Clandestine stations. These are stations that broadcast on behalf of various political movements such as rebel or insurrectionist forces.
They may advocate civil war, insurrection, rebellion against the government-in-charge of the country to which they are directed. Clandestine
broadcasts may emanate from transmitters located in rebel-controlled territory or from outside the country entirely, using another country's
transmission facilities."

It's one of those terms I've wondered about myself. It's not like the original Radio Rebelde (prior to 1959) or Radio Freedom in the 1980s.
