[Scan-DC] Pirate radio calls for inauguration protests

[Vic/Johanna Culver]

I'm in Alexandria -- I haven't heard anything like this, although my
listening has been a little sporadic since the first post alerting to the
operation.  Sounds like FUN!

Pirate radio calls for inauguration protests

Wednesday, December 22, 2004 Posted: 2252 GMT (0652 HKT)

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- An unauthorized radio station in the nation's capital
called for "massive protests" in the week leading up to the January 20
presidential inauguration.

The station broadcast Wednesday at 1680 AM and identified itself as
"Guerrilla Radio, WSQT."

During the identification message, an announcer said, "WSQT is a project
of urban activists in the D.C. area working on housing issues, homeless
issues, issues of war, issues of occupation both at home and abroad, and
issues of the environment that we all have to live in."
...

"It's about $40 in parts from Radio Shack and the Dumpster," he said in a
telephone interview Wednesday afternoon. The caller's voice sounded
similar to the voice heard on the broadcasts throughout the day.
