  • @Generalissima: Happy to take any inputs on tweaking the hook. But, not many clandestine radio stations in that part of the world at that time. I can’t think of any other in Portuguese India. Ktin (talk) 04:51, 19 January 2024 (UTC)

Let me know. We can trim the hook if we need to. Ktin (talk) 05:06, 19 January 2024 (UTC)
@Generalissima:. Pardon the ping. Appreciate your eyes on the revised hooks. Thanks. Ktin (talk) 06:23, 21 January 2024 (UTC)
Oh no worries, I got distracted. I think Alt1.3 is the best; it's short and punchy and invites the reader to click to learn more, which is really all you want with a hook! Generalissima (talk) 06:50, 21 January 2024 (UTC)
