Pakistan at the 1958 British Empire and Commonwealth Games

Pakistan competed at the 1958 British Empire and Commonwealth Games in Cardiff, in Wales, the United Kingdom. The 1958 Games were Pakistan's second appearance, having participated in 1954. It was Pakistan's third-most successful appearance ever, winning three gold medals. It marked the first of four successive Games at which Pakistan finished in the top ten countries in the medal table (a feat that the country has not accomplished at any other Games outside that sequence). As in the next two Games, the success was primarily based upon wrestling, in which Pakistan won all three of its golds, as well as three silver medals.

gollark: I see.
gollark: The thumbnail looks like it's showing you receiving at 87MHz or so. So just many harmonics?
gollark: I had to look up Nyquist zones but that sounds plausible I guess.
gollark: So nyquistishly you could only transmit up to 40.
gollark: I can't really check this right now due to being on my phone; how does it work? I thought the useful ESP32 peripherals for this (I²S and maybe the RMT one) only went to 80MHz.
