[cr-india] Re: Community radio station

[Frederick Noronha (FN)]

Hi Frederick: 

Unesco/UNDP has been supporting the 'radio (station) in a briefcase' 
solution. You could perhaps contact someone there... I unfortunately know 
the Unesco/UNDP people mainly in this part of the world (South Asia).

My friends Vickram Crishna and Dr Arun Mehta have put together some 
interesting tech solutions for ultra-low powered broadcasting. Please 
visit their site http://www.radiophony.com

Best of luck to your dream! FN

PS: Copying this to creative-radio mailing list on yahoogroups.com... 
maybe someone there could help you out.
