...smart Journalist Jacques Tremoulet and Radio-Manufacturer Leon Kierkowsky built a radio station at Toulouse in southern France, gradually formed an imposing radio chain. As insurance against unfavorable regulation by the French Government, in 1935 they began building Radio Andorra. In the face of heated opposition from Socialist members of the Chamber of Deputies, the pair went calmly ahead with the installation without official authorization. They finally finagled from France permission to broadcast, but were allocated no wave length on which to operate. Not to be stopped by such a triviality, in 1938 they blithely began experimental sending...
