Companies

According to the State Media Act of North Rhine-Westphalia , the responsibility for programming for Radio Herford lies with the organizer association Radio Wittekindsland Herford eV, which is made up of representatives of socially relevant groups in the district.

Radio Herford Betriebsgesellschaft mbH & Co. KG is responsible for economic matters. The newspaper publisher Neue Westfälische and the municipal holding company for local radio in the Herford district are involved.

The technical and business management tasks are largely outsourced to the full-service provider Audio Media Service (AMS) based in Bielefeld .

Coat range

The rest of the program and the world news at the top of the hour are taken over by the broadcaster Radio NRW outside of local broadcast times. Radio NRW supplies 45 NRW local stations with a 24-hour program that can be accessed at any time. However, Radio Herford is stipulated by the State Agency for Media North Rhine-Westphalia (LfM) a certain local broadcasting time. In return, Radio Herford broadcasts an hourly advertising block from the NRW program. The music format is the Adult Contemporary (AC) prescribed by Radio NRW, which is aimed at 19 to 49-year-old listeners. The music selection is also largely given by Radio NRW. This also happens during local airtime. Radio NRW determines which title is shown at what time. The station identifier "Radio Herford" and similar IDs outside of the local broadcasting times are automatically triggered by a remote control signal from Oberhausen in the mostly unoccupied broadcasting studio in Herford at the time, as is common with all other local radio stations in North Rhine-Westphalia.

The programs are delivered via satellite. If reception is impaired in bad weather, the system automatically switches to an additional ISDN line to Oberhausen.

Two pillar model

The State Broadcasting Act in North Rhine-Westphalia prescribes the operation of local radio stations in the so-called two-pillar model. This model separates the program and economic responsibility with the aim of ensuring that the program does not lose its level or content due to journalistic or economic interests.
