figure out All Are In Use All of the long wave frequencies in Europe are in use This Is shown in the records of the European Broadcasting Union a sort of trade association of European governments engaged In broadcasting Naturally VOA did not choose to encroach on the frequency of an allied government It was going to have to muscle into a frequency used yan iron curtain country The logical one to choose was that of Radio Moscow since it was the Soviet most important station and would be the hardest for Russia to jam If Russia jams frequency 173 she will ruin her own program It is difficult and expensive to shift from one frequency to another but if Russia does that in order to jam Munich then Munich also can shift frequency choosing Minsk or some other iron curtain channel Adventist
