Raid Radio Barretina

Radio Barretina was raided on 30th of April 2008. Information available here and at Franja DX. Thanks for all these nice entertaining programmes and it is very sad that it is all over now.

English message on Franja DX reads:
Sad news, I just received this communication from the man behind the Radio Barretina International project. The original is in catalan, as usual.
Seems that some PTT man was visiting his home and saying to closing down because the stations was interfering some french maritime station. A new visit on next monday 5, may just at 9 AM is foresseen to put a seal strap on the Yaesu FT-757 GX transceiver.
Also,he said that no fine was issued at the moment, because the positive collaboration of the operator.
An alternative project must be in the mind of the operator.
Feel free to sent your condolences and solidarity to the well know: radiobarretina@hotmail.com
Long life to RADIO BARRETINA INTERNATIONAL!
