Dear Vickram,

Thanks! How could I have missed Oravakal?! It's a lot more important than some of the stuff I had put in. 

Could you give me the exact dates? Wasn't Oravakal inaugurated on 2nd (or 3rd) October, 2002? 

About DDS, I remember Sateesh writing that they applied for a license in August 2000 and that the Ministry rejected the application after 16 months. That should make it December 2001. Does someone have the exact dates?

If someone from Voices (Ashish?) is reading this, please send us the Budikote milestones - when the station was set up, when it was inaugurated etc.

Where does one find info about cable radio stations in Orissa and Maharashtra? Could someone help?

Not a thing, I agree. We should all wear black badges on 9 Feb 2005. 

Sajan.
