Radio Eviva is a private Swiss radio program from Radio Eviva AG in Brunnen . The music program positions itself in the field of Swiss folk music and also offers an accompanying program with news, information from the region and all over the world and various accompanying activities to encourage audience loyalty.
program
Eviva claims to be the only Swiss radio program that plays Swiss folk music in full, supplemented by music from the Alpine world. The proportion of pure Swiss folk music is 80 to 90 percent. To this end, Radio Eviva concentrates on customs and traditions in Switzerland and offers a basic service for all types of news such as society, politics, sport, miscellaneous and folk culture. External program takeover or delivery takes around 30 minutes a day.
In addition to the homepage, the service accompanying the program includes a web shop, an event calendar, a current playlist for the program and the members ' newspaper Eviva-Zytig, which appears around twice a year .
Organizer and operation
Since mid-2012, the organizer, Radio Eviva AG, has owned three private individuals who were previously connected to the station and who were identified in the station's press release as "experts on Swiss folk music". Radio Central AG had previously sold its block of shares in order to comply with a media law stipulation that no media company in Switzerland may own more than two radios.
In addition to advertising income, the broadcaster also uses sponsoring members of the Eviva Club for financing, who are asked to maintain Swiss folk culture with their annual contribution of CHF 50 . The company is run by two permanent employees (0.65 full-time equivalents) and 20 freelancers.
reception
Radio Eviva is available digitally on the second DAB multiplex channel 7D in northern Switzerland, via the Hotbird 6 satellite and via the station's homepage as a live stream .
The program is fed in analogue and / or digital by various cable operators.
Although the station was represented on Astra from the start (as a feed for the cable network operator), the extended license as “cable and satellite radio with access to all cable systems in Switzerland” has only existed since March 25, 1998. With one in 100,000 listeners supported by the signature campaign, the broadcaster applied for a license to broadcast VHF, but this was rejected. From August 4th to 23rd the program could be received via VHF transmitters as part of a special license in Central Switzerland . The reasons were the Swiss Wrestling and Alpine Festival in Lucerne and the Tell Games in the canton of Uri.
