Sending scheme

DP07 broadcasts the sea ​​weather report of the German Weather Service for the Baltic and North Sea five times a day and once a day for the Mediterranean . The station is currently broadcasting via eleven coastal radio relay stations on the German North and Baltic Sea coasts. Before the start of operations, the melody from the piano booklet for Anna Magdalena Bach by Johann Sebastian Bach sounds the minuet , the same melody that Norddeich Radio used to announce the weather forecast for decades. Private calls can be handled via DP07 and are billed by the company as an internationally registered and recognized billing company for terrestrial marine radio (VHF, border wave and short wave) and for Inmarsat billing.

Since 2012 DP07 has been operating on shortwave again , continuing the tradition of Norddeich Radio . DP07 currently only offers coastal radio on VHF.
