What happens

Secret Agent K-7 Returns presents Border Violations, in which former agent Z and his friend Patricia Norwood set out to expose a ring of international crooks who stage border incidents to keep tension high and sell information to rearming nations. Z obtains permission from both countries to fly over the border and tracks a violating plane by radio direction finding, with Pat on the ground. When his plane is hit by gunfire, Z goes silent, and Pat, searching the countryside from the air, finds a hidden airfield. The story follows her efforts to learn what has become of Z and to uncover the men behind the violations.

Near a disputed border between two countries, at a small airfield and across the surrounding countryside and skies, during a period of world tension over border violations.

Characters: Z, Patricia Norwood, K7, John Holbrook, Nedok

Listen for: Pat's radio contact with Z as he pursues the violating plane, and her discovery of the hidden airfield.

Written from the episode itself; it never gives away the ending. Every recording is remastered for the stream: cleaned of rumble, hiss and mains hum (and the old TV whine where we found it), then levelled in two passes to steady broadcast loudness, so one show is never quieter than the next.
