BBC FM network in Czech Republic to rebroadcast Radio Cesko Czech 
programmes, alongside BBC English:

(14 March 06)

BBC World Service has signed an agreement to enable Czech digital radio 
network Radio Cesko to rebroadcast Czech language news and current affairs 
programmes alongside BBC English language programmes on FM across the Czech 
Republic, it was announced today.
The agreement is between BBC Radiocom (Prague) s.r.o. (a wholly owned 
subsidiary of BBC) and Czech Radio.
Radio Cesko is a public service Czech language news and current affairs 
station produced by Czech Radio.
The agreement means the BBC will continue, as now, to broadcast in the 
English language on FM for 18 hours a day in the Czech Republic capital 
Prague (on 101.1FM) and 11 other major cities.
Radio Cesko will broadcast on the BBC network for six hours a day from 15 
March at 08.00 hours (local time).
The BBC's English language service will be available every day between 
11.00 and 13.00 hours and from 16.00 until 08.00 next morning.
Radio Cesko - which currently broadcasts on the internet and DVB-T (digital 
terrestrial television system) - will broadcast in the Czech language 
between 08.00 and 11.00 hours and between 13.00 and 16.00 hours local time.
The programmes are also available in the following cities and frequencies 
across the Czech Republic: Brno 101.3 ; Ceské Budejovice 89.8; Hradec 
Králové/Pardubice 99.1; Jihlava 96.7; Karlovy Vary 94.7; Liberec 99.2; 
Olomouc 105.6; Ostrava 106.3; Plzen 98.6; Ústí n/Labem 105.8; and Zlín 93.9.
The BBC has been using FM frequencies in the Czech Republic to broadcast 
BBC English and Czech language programmes since 1992.
The change follows the end of broadcasts, after 66 years, by the BBC's 
Czech language service on 28 February this year. (BBC Press Release 14
