Vatican Radio Reduces AM, SW Broadcasts


As of July 1, Vatican Radio will reduce its shortwave and medium-wave transmissions to most of Europe and the Americas.

This announcement came from Director General Fr. Federico Lombardi, who said, “Vatican Radio is ready to open a new chapter in its history by committing its message of service to the Gospel and the Church to new communication technologies.”

Vatican Radio transmits its programs in 40 languages via satellite and the Internet. The programs, which are rebroadcast by approximately 1,000 local radio stations on FM and medium-wave in more than 80 countries, are also available live on five Web channels, on-demand and in podcast from the Vatican Radio website.

According to Lombardi, close collaboration between Vatican Radio and the Vatican Television Center has also led to the development of online video services and an “innovative” instrument called the “Vatican Player,” which offers sound and images of Papal events, live and on-demand, texts and written reports related to those events.

Transmission via satellite, Internet and rebroadcasting, guarantee the widest possible outreach to Vatican Radio’s programming and services explains Lombardi. “This is why Vatican Radio believes the time has come to reduce its reliance on traditional technologies, such as shortwave and medium-wave broadcasts, and to develop its resources in new directions.”

The reduction of shortwave and medium-wave broadcasts to most of Europe and the Americas (areas, he said, that are already well served by local rebroadcasting partners and the Internet) accounts for about 50% of Vatican Radio’s Santa Maria di Galeria Transmission Center’s transmission time and will allow Vatican Radio focus on more innovative technological criteria.

Shortwave broadcasts will be further reduced over the next few years, said Lombardi, “but not at the expense of those poor, needy and suffering parts of the world (like Africa, the Middle East and Asia), which have no alternative means of receiving news of the Church and the voice of the Pope.”

RNW English Service - Closing...


RNW English Service will be closing at the end of June





Dear reader, we're sorry to inform you that the English service of Radio Netherlands Worldwide will be closing at the end of this month. As a result, this website will see some changes.

From 1 July 2012 there will no longer be a daily review of the Dutch papers. Our coverage of Dutch news stories will also cease. And since RNW's English webstream will end on 29 June, there will be no more Listening Guide.

We will continue to serve you, however, on this website, with background articles relating to our new brief: promoting free speech in areas where people are not free to gather information, or to form and express independent opinions.

The measures are a result of steep budget cuts imposed by the Dutch government and a concomitant change in focus. Providing the world with a realistic image of the Netherlands, as we have proudly done since 1947, will no longer be one of our statutory duties.
The last radio show
On 29 June we will broadcast a radio show looking back at the past decades of Radio Netherlands Worldwide. Have you got a memory to share? Please let us know, at the usual address, letters@rnw.nl. We'd love to hear from you.
Updates
Please keep checking this site for updates on our final day. There may be a surprise or two...

The RNW English team
