Radio ZuSa is a local non-commercial radio station in northeast Lower Saxony with broadcast studios in the Hanseatic cities of Uelzen and Lüneburg .

description

The local radio station is operated by the non-profit broadcasting company Nordostniedersachsen , based in Uelzen. It is broadcast over three VHF frequencies (Lüneburg 95.5 MHz, Uelzen 88.0 MHz, Lüchow-Dannenberg: 89.7 MHz) in the Lüneburg Heath , the Elbmarsch and the Wendland as well as via an Internet stream.

Radio ZuSa is a product of the pilot project of the State Media Authority for more local information on the radio and a radio program designed by the citizens themselves. On May 7, 1997, the radio station began broadcasting with studios in Lüneburg and Uelzen. The free broadcasting lines and news were initially taken over by NDR 2 , since 2002 these have been provided by Deutschlandradio Kultur . The own broadcasting time and the distribution could be increased further and further. To this end, a third broadcast studio was opened in Lüchow in 2002 . This moved to Dannenberg in 2007 and no longer exists. The editorial offices in Uelzen and Lüneburg produce six hours of magazine programs every day, the morning magazine "Extrawach" (6:00 am to 10:00 am) and the afternoon program "Happy Hour" (4:00 pm to 6:00 pm).

More than 400,000 people can receive Radio ZuSa via antenna. In 2006, according to a TNS Emnid survey, 85.6 percent of all citizens in the region knew the station, 68.3 percent had heard it before.

Surname

The name ZuSa is made up of the words sugar and salt: Sugar stands for Uelzen and the largest sugar factory in Germany located there. And salt stands for the historic salt town of Lüneburg , which became rich in the Middle Ages through the trade in “white gold”, as well as for the salt domes in Wendland.
