I didn't really follow them. I didn't have the least bit of interest. I only remember one instance when my father and I were sitting in our car, waiting for my mother and my father and I played around with the radio, seeing what stations we could catch. We stumbled over some station where a female voice said: Ici Tirana.
That was a station, broadcasting in French from the Albanian capital. We didn't follow what the broadcast was about, just had a good laugh over catching something like that.
Also, it still was the time of aerials, we could catch slovakian TV, then still part of Czechoslovakia. Not in good quality, since they used a different system, maybe even NTSC or SECAM, and the intent wasn't to broadcast for others but for their own population.
