Radio Caroline, International Pirate Ships and Legal Stays

The panel discusses the history of offshore pirate radio, including Radio Caroline in England and Abbie Nathan's "Peace Ship" off the coast of Israel. They return to the legal battle of Stephen Dunifer, noting that Judge Claudia Wilkin in San Francisco refused to grant the FCC an injunction to shut him down. This legal "stay" is seen as a significant victory for the micro-broadcasting movement's First Amendment claims.
