Does anyone know if the situation in Italy is still the same? It would be very interesting if it is.

It was in the early part of the last decade, I don't know about now. The Italians I know of are into podcasting these days. Where's Giovanni 
Bellabarba when he's needed?

BTW, Greece is wide open for pirates, especially on MW and they run a ton of power.

I know about the Greek MW pirates. They are very interesting and play some nice music.

Last I heard the situation has changed a bit in recent years.
Low power stations are now permitted to broadcast without a licence.
I don't  know what the restrictions are though.

Thanks for the info, Brian. I've got a friend who teaches media studies at an Italian university. They've been doing some podcasting and thinking about starting a radio station. I'll pass this along, he's in a position to find out the current regulations.
