Over the next decade, several hundred of these newly created low-wattage stations took to the airwaves. This book describes the practices of an activist organisation focused on LPFM during this era. Despite its origins as a pirate broadcasting collective, the group eventually shifted toward building and expanding regulatory access to new, licensed stations.Inside technology.Low power radioUnited StatesCommunity radioUnited StatesAlternative radio broadcastingUnited StatesRadio broadcastingPolitical aspectsUnited StatesRadio broadcasting policyUnited StatesCitizen participationPirate radio broadcastingPolitical aspectsUnited StatesLow power radioCommunity radioAlternative radio broadcastingRadio broadcastingPolitical aspectsRadio broadcasting policyCitizen participation.Pirate radio broadcastingPolitical aspects384.54/43Dunbar-Hester Christina1976-1677606MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910807050203321Low power to the people4044650UNINA
