[João Costa > CT1FBF]

Em relação a Portugal, os restantes colegas já responderam, em relação á
Radio Caroline, alem das emissões "comerciais" esporádicas existentes em
ondas curtas, eles tem intenção de as tornarem regulares, hajam apoios para
isso.

Existe tambem um grupo muito dedicados de radioamadores que realizam
activações regularmente do barco/estudio/emissor nas bandas de amador, como
aqui tem sido noticiado.
