Abstract

Jamming the Airways. Britain on the Spot
Carson, Saul | March 24, 1956 issue

add to cart   close window

If the Greeks and Cypriotes were angry last week when Great Britain announced it would resort to experimental jamming to drown out the dreadful effects of Radio Athens broadcasts beamed to Cyprus, hackles also arose elsewhere. Washington, long the champion of anti-jamming resolutions, must have squirmed. Those Russians who have recently rediscovered their sense of humor must have doubled up with laughter. British spokesmen who so often condemned Russia's considered interference with radio signals in debates and talkfests here must have been looking for holes to crawl into.
