Radio Exterior de España (REE), or simply Radio Exterior, is a Spanish free-to-air radio station owned and operated by Radio Nacional de España (RNE), the radio division of state-owned public broadcaster Radiotelevisión Española (RTVE). It is the corporation's international radio service and was launched on 15 March 1942. It is considered to be Spain's equivalent to the BBC World Service, Deutsche Welle and Radio Canada International.
History
While RNE began its first shortwave broadcasts to Europe (La Voz de España) in 1942,[1] its current branding (Radio Exterior de España) was adopted on 2 January 1978.[2]
Broadcasting
The station is primarily intended for Spaniards living abroad. It broadcasts 24 hours a day on satellite and the Internet, but for limited hours on shortwave. Transmissions are in Spanish, French, Arabic, Ladino, Portuguese, Russian and English.
REE ceased shortwave broadcasts on 15 October 2014; however, two months later it was announced they would resume shortwave broadcasts in Spanish for four hours a day, as well as coverage of sporting events, in order to serve the country's fishing industry whose ships had no other viable means to access REE broadcasts while at sea.
REE transmission originate from the Noblejas transmission site.[3][4]
