Pirate TV in eastern Europe TELEVISION HAS PLAYED an increasingly
significant role in the downfall of Eastern Europe's one-party states. In
Poland underground pirate video transmissions kept Solidarity alive for
nearly 10 years. Last fall, East Germans judged the effects of their
anti-government demonstrations by watching the coverage they received on
West German news programs. In Romania, control of the television station is
tantamount to control of the government.
Digit - Features - Pirate TV As we move to a world where all
entertainment is delivered digitally, the battle over copyright protection
is turning into a full-blown war. And consumer rights may end up being the
biggest casualty as media companies hunker down and try to redefine what
users can and can’t do with the content they’ve paid for and the hardware
they own.
Berkeley Daily Planet The television monitors, DVD players and
amplifiers in Free Radio Berkeley’s West Oakland warehouse are more than
just a jumble of hardware. They’re the parts to a TV channel, and the newest
wave in micropower media—low wattage, garage-style broadcasting, sometimes
referred to as pirate radio, that usually operates without a license.

405 Alive - History - Pirate Television Probably the first
reference to pirate television (in Britain at least) comes, amusingly, in
the 1940 film Band Waggon, in which Arthur Askey and ‘Stinker Murdoch’
establish a pirate television station in opposition to the BBC...
a quick and dirty guide to diy media: broadcasting There's a
certain romance about pirate broadcasting. Maybe it's the thrill of being a
rebel and taking a stand against the Federal Communications Commission. Or
maybe it's that Christian Slater movie. Either way broadcasting is fun and
exciting and there are lots of ways to do it- most of them legal.
Pirate Chinese TV defies state Chased from province to province, fined,
threatened with closure - yet a pirate Chinese TV station continues to evade
officials and find increasing popularity with its village audiences.
Mutiny on the Airwaves I know - this is about pirate radio, but I
found it while surfing for PTV. It includes the statement, "The equipment to
broadcast television is a bit more extensive and expensive than radio but
not very hard to work with. Your biggest expense most likely will be your
camera, or your jail sentence. Just kidding! If you transmit less than 15
minutes at a time, you can't get tracked down by the FCC. They usually need
to be clued in to your transmissions by your own attempts at publicity or a
complaint from someone picking up your signal. Most people get off for their
first offense."
Tiny Television The very presence of pirate radio and TV stations
has forced changes in the law. In Prague, Radio Stalin took up residence in
the base of a toppled Stalin statue. It proved so popular that no one dared
shut it down. Consequently, new laws were written and there are now hundreds
of tiny radio stations in the Czech Republic. In Russia, Ukraine and many
other places, tiny local stations became so popular that government attempts
to shut them down failed, and they now exist legally.
