Alex asks how to render the expression "podryvnaja radiostancija". There is a
well-established term "clandestine radio station" which corresponds
approximately
to "podpol'naja radiostancija". If one wants to put more emphasis on the fact
that such a station is carrying out subversive activities, one can add
"subversive"
or "propaganda": "clandestine propaganda radio station".
