Radio Osaka/Netherlands "Forced" to CloseDown
« on: August 06, 2013, 1732 UTC »
Hello All Free Radio Friends!

I had also the honour, personally being handed over the letter
from Dutch Telecom Agency, presented to me on Thursday , 2013.08.01 13:42.

Two "officials" a man and woman came at my door.
The question came to me directly... did I disturbed?

No that wasn't the case, but they got a call from "someone," who told them, I was on-air almost every day,
so no problems by neighbours etc. I just was above ground level.

The Telecom-woman, was in training, so...

The Telecom Agency people were very gentle.
I could stay on-air till 15 hrs - probably to prevent escalation.

I 've been on-air in a few years time, where others do maybe this in 10 or more years time!
I 've enjoyed the time being!

There wasn't any confiscation of equipment etc.
So before the story goes "wild" this is what happened.
Quick and neat.

So keep a low profile for some time.. you have been warned!
I wish you all a nice week end!

Be calm and keep on "fighting" for free radio!

All the Best Greets
