Mclntire Says C. I. A. Also Broadcasts From Sea I

By DONALD JANSON 1 specla1 to me N e w York Times

CAMDEN, Oct. 11-The Rev. Dr. .Carl D. McIntire said today that if the Federal District Court here did not lift its tem- porary injunction against his pirate-ship broadcasts he would subpoena top Government of- ficials to prove that the Cen- tral Intelligence Agency also used the high seas for un- licensed broadcasts.

The Federal Communications Commission obtained the re- straining order Sept. 21, con- tending that the Fundamentalist minister from Collingswood, N. J., had interfered with shore- based stations by illegally broadcasting without an F.C.C. license from several miles off Cape May in a converted mine-

from international waters by a 1959 Geneva treaty.

That convention prohibits broadcasting stations aboard ships outside national territo- ries.

Because the treaty says nothing -about F.C.C. licensing power In such waters, Mr. Pierce said, the agency has no power outside its territorial limits and has no basis for en- joining unlicensed broadcasts there.

Daniel M. Armstrong, coun- sel for the F.C.C. in Wash- ington, argued that a treaty supersedes an earlier statute only when the two are in con- flict. I-Ie said that in this case the two should be interpreted as complementary rather than conflicting, in which case the licensing power granted the azencv bv the 1934 act would

sweeper. The 67-year-old minister con-

cedes that he did so in retalia- tion for the agency's denial of a license renewal last summer for his station, WXUR, in Media, Pa. But he contends that the F.C.C. has no power to license broadcasting stations in international waters beyond the three-mile territorial limit.

Heraing Is Scheduled As followers marched outside

the courthouse with signs de- manding restoration of his WXUR license y d his "free- dom of speech, the contro- versial preacher said in an interview that his lawyers would take depositions from C.I.A. officials unless the court lifted its temporary injunction.

The depositions would be used a t a hearing scheduled for Nov. 1 before Federal Judge M~tchell H. Cohen here op a Government motlon to make the injunction permanent.

Today JudgeCohen heard an interim appeal by Dr. McIntlre

to lift the temporary injunction. The judge said he would rule on the matter by Oct. 23.

Former Mayor Alfred R. Pierce of Camden, one of four lawyers appearing with Dr. Mc- Intire, told the court that the 1934 Communications Act, re- qulrlng F.C.C. licensing for broadcasting from United States vessels had been super- seded in rea& to broadcasts

a;plydto ships of United states reglstry anywhere a t sea.

Dr. McIntire's four attorneys in the courtroom today Bnclud. ed Benedict P. Cottone of Washington, former general counsel of the F.C.C.

In addition to questioning the licensing authority of the agency for ships in internation- al waters, the lawyers argued that the treaty was not en- forceable by injunction, but by trial and fines on conviction of violations.

They disputed the Govern- ment's claim of irreparable in. jury to shore-based stations using the same frequency in New Jersey and Utah, noting that Dr. McIntire had volun- tarily gone off the air before the injunction was issued after he learned that he was. inter- fering with station WHLW in Lakewood, N. J.

Dr. McIntire said today that he was ready to resume the pirate broadcasts on an un- used wavelength as soon.as the court removed its restraint.

Greetings. TA's have been i n a l l week but not really good u n t i l t d a y , 10-13. Conditions st i l l not a s good a s I expected them to be by now. Some pretty good material th i s time, so here goes.

F i r s t a couple of longwave items from Charles Clayton.

173 - W T GlSWNY-&rope I, Saarlouis noted on 9-20, 0501 to 0505 with male announcer i n FF and occasional music.

200 - ENGLAND-Droitwich noted on 9-20, 0446 t o 0450 with t a lk and l i t e music. 209 - MOROCCO-Azilal i n on 9-17, 2350 t o 2356 with Moslem chanting. I

- ECUADOR-HCFA2, R. Tropical was the stronger of 2 SSers 10/8, 0600-0630 w/very few anmts, OM ancr, with several mentions of "Tropicanan. Other SS barely detectable, way i n background. Country # 51. (JHP-PA)

- HAWAII-KMVI Wailuku heard on 9/10 f o r 3/4 hour through local KARI u n t i l 1

0801 s/off. (GSBC) - ST KITTS-ZIZ very strong 9/28, 0010 with discussion of Womans Lib with local l ibbie; modulation not so hot. On Beverage. (GWMA)

- DOMINICA-WIBS f a i r t o good 0015 but technical quality poor; sounded l i k e an off the a i r relay. Iots of studio or l ink noise on carrier. 9/28 on Beverage. (GPN-MA) Did you hear a WIBS I D on t h i s one? I think a l l the former WIBS stations now have loca l programs and the only I D I've heard on t h i s one is Radio Dominica. (D) - HAWAII-KORL Honolulu, often heard; especially good on 9/17 a t 0800 with news followed by ta lk show. (Bve MM sked a s local midnite s/off t o 5 AM s/on. (GSBC) - SPANISH SAHARA-??AJ203, R. Sahara. I noted a strong, c lea r signal here 2326 on 9/30 and almost tuned away, assuming it was R A I who usually dominates with th i s type of programming a t this time, A routine fre- I

quency measurement gave 655.9923, however, which ruled out RAI (which is never as much as 0.1 Hz off) . A quick check of the l a t e s t EWI data I

showed that EAJ203 was l a s t measured on 655.9928 with about a 2 Hz vari- a t ion so I stuck with it and it indeed turned out t o be our old friend mJ203 with the best signal ever heard here. Seemed t o be some s o r t of special occasion: Man and woman talking excitedly, something that sounded l ike a sporting event, etc. Noted as l a t e a s 0055 and gone a t 0105 re- check so probably off 0100; never heard on th i s l a t e before. The next night only a weak carr ier on 656.0001 was noted; presumably R A I a s usual I but no audio. Mean directiomfinding bearing (10) was 87 degrees; EL Aaiun i s 89 degrees. (GPN-MA) This one now sked t o be on u n t i l OlOOZ daily. Carrier noted here on 10-10 t o 0100 s/off but no audio, just a het with YSS. (ED)

- ST UJCIA-R. S t h c i a dominant s t n on channel 0030 w/soul mx and ID by man EE w/~aribbean accent; mentioned "London'1 and I think went in to a relay tat not sure. Totally on top of channel; not a trace of WNBC! 9/28 on Beverage. (GPN-YA )

- UNID-Station with semi-classical m s i c almost non-stop. IDs a t 0800 were very weak; man and woman. &st-west on the loop. 2C0 or possibly Japan? Nothing past 2 weeks. (GS-BC)

- COSTA NU-TIJC, Sonora, San Jose 10-7 with SS pop music, very l i t t l e talking between cuts. From OW5 t o 0L&5 tune out. h n g fades, ex s i g when up f o r 2-h minutes a t a time. N ~ ~ . (T-NJ)

- Unid SS-uIBdio ..." about even with WUJ on 9/21 a t 0900. Iat ins a ren ' t frequent here yet. Sutatenza? (Probably, ED) (GS-BC)

- ST VINCENT-Presumably WIBS was the one here 0035; man speaking i n what appeared t o be Caribbean-accented EE but modulation very shallow. 9/28 on Beverage. (GPN-MI\)

- SURINAM-SRS extremely high 0038 with Hindi music; splashing 720 and 730! 9/28 on Beverage. (GPN-WA)

737 - SPAIN/ISRAELTuned i n 0058 t o f ind an IS from Brcelona being repeated; seems to be 13 notes on a vibraphone type instrument ( v i l l send dub of tape t o Page f o r a transcription); t h i s on 10/8. Instead of the usual RNE net I D , Barcelona cut the ca r r ie r a t 0100 leaving I s rae l alone on the channel i n AA. b s i c (nofibmadan fa re ) and l o t s of AA talk, good a t times t o tune out 0125. No positive I s rae l i ID heard this time but fre- quency measured a s 737.0001 and rock steady; I s rae l has been dead-center on channel f o r a long time whereas the Fgyptian is a bad d r i f t e r with poor short term frequency s t a b i l i t y and a present mean frequency of a b u t 736.981 kHz according to the l a t e s t EElU measureanent. 'Ihe IsraeU on this channel is now supposedly 1200 kw; mostly programed foreign service this time of night. (GPN-W) - Also noted by your edi tor t h i s pas t week. F i r s t heard on 10-10 with a very pronounced SAH with Bruelona. Next night was better, some AA music a t times and 6 pips a t 0030 followed by what was apparently nx. Call from Ben Dangerfield indicating t h a t he was also hearing them but no defi- n i te ID. He heard the pips a t 0130. Completely gone next night with very poor condx, but back on 10-13 with best s i g yet. l h e d in a t 0101 art they were mixed with Spain, by OlO5 Israel completely on top of the frequency with AA music. Mostly music, pips heard again a t 0130 Polo by nx. In and out with Spain for the next hour. No d d i n i t e ID heard but strongly suspect t h i s i s Israel. Tentative report out but don't know how inclined they wi l l be t o answer reports a t th i s time.

742 - CUBA-Fidel's boys do it again; f u l l R, Uberacion ID 0130 by a mnn speak- ing over clock chimes 10/5; het ought to be audible in suburban Toronto. Frequency measured a s 741.78088. (GPbW)

- CUBA-CMJL Camaguey, R. Liberacion was considerably higher than CBL 0430 10/8. Anyone check exact f req? (Yes, see above) (M-PA)

74511 - SPURIOUS USA-No Virginia, its not Kenya. Weak and distorted EE stat ion here with very unstable ca r r ie r irequency turns out to be a spurious ra- diation from WJR760; ident ical spur noted on synmetrical frequency of 775V. This is the third time i n 5 years that I've noted this s o r t of synmetrical spur from WJR; each time they t e l l me there can't be anything' but the problem vanishes inevitably a i t e r the next maintenance period; how 'bout that? (GPN-MA)

746 - KENYA-African s tat ion f i r s t noted here 10/1 a t 0312 tune in; weak with a f a s t fade a t f i r s t , peaked t o f a i r l eve l around 0325 with western music , and man announcer i n u k i t could have been EE but not enough to be certain. Characteristic f a s t Transequitorial fade noted often before from Tanzania Angola, e ts . Completely gone by 0338 with no fur ther ca r r ie r detectable. Direction finding says ei ther North or East Africa; mean bearing 81 2 5 includes Nairobi (79). Frequency is very characteristic: 746.0341 (which is what called my at tent ion to the s ta t ion to begin with); the only Wo- pean ever noted by EB) or me t h i s high is Plovdiv, W g a r i a which is ruled out by the DF as a possibility. I've gone over the tapes several times but detai ls a r e real ly too sketchy for a meaningful tentat ive so If11 work on hirn some more. Nairobi is sked t o s/on a t 0255; the next night, 10/2 the ca r r ie r came on a t 0250:45 but was much too weak f o r audio. This is almost certainly Bi l l Eailey's unid of several months ago; between the sked, the programing, the fade-out time and the direction finding I ' m 95% sure th i s is Kenya; when I get enough f o r a positive logging it'll be country #I27 and the f i r s t new Bst African i n 8 years! (2) Cur Bst African noted almost nightly carr ier sign on within a couple minutes of 0250. Best audio t o date around 0302 on 10/8; man talking i n what appears t o be accented EE but not sure; have t o go back and combf i l t e r the tape i f I ' m going t o get anything out of it. U p t a p o gui tar mx i n and out a s l a t e a s 0322 when dropped out f o r the r e s t of the evening. Frequency a rock steady 746.0350 every night 10/4-lo/$; longterm s t a t i s t i c a l direction finding now passes within 40 miles of Nairobi,. .BePore 10/8 th i s was just a matter of enough persistence; now things a r e more complex. A second TA carr ier showed 0316 on t h i s date; frequency for the new-comer 746.0002; perhaps Holland tes t ing or mybe Syria. As the season progresses t h e r e t U be more and more QJM here So i t ' s now or never... ( G P ~ M A ) I've looked for t h i s one t h i s past week but no t race yet. Sure would be a nice catch and would be my f i r s t B s t African i n 15 years, hi. (ED)
