from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The list of private local radio stations in North Rhine-Westphalia currently includes 45 local radio stations in North Rhine-Westphalia and some no longer existing stations. Private local radio in North Rhine-Westphalia began broadcasting Radio DU (today: Radio Duisburg ) on April 1, 1990. Currently, all stations are working with Radio NRW as a provider of supporting programs.

In the district of Olpe there is no local radio before. Currently, in some parts of the district, the neighboring Siegen radio can be received from the Siegen-Giersberg and Bad Berleburg-Aue stations . In addition, there is currently no local radio in the Heinsberg district . Because Radio NRW only broadcasts its main program indirectly via the affiliated local stations, it does not officially broadcast in these two circles.
