Re: [IRCA] Germany 756

[Joseph Miller <kj8o@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I have listened to Deutschlandfunk on the web or on sghortwave on few occasions. There are actually two audio streams available, and I'm assuming both are broadcast over the air. 

First is Deutschlandfunk which as Bill points states does have some news content, but also as Marc states, frequently has music. I don't listen to this one very often.

The other is Deutschlandfunk Kultura (Culture) which carries short news reports (typically 5 minutes) with the rest of the hours filled up with either popular, jazz, or classical music. All announcements are in German, but the songs can sung be in any language, and even if your German isn't that good (like YT), the music can be fun to listen to. Lastly, this station does use "Deutschlandfunk Kultura" so it should be fairly easy to ID either station.

Just my 2 cents...

Sorry to contradict you, Bill, but I've heard music on this station (Deutschlandfunk) many times.  They have been heard with a wide variety of music from Classical to Delta Blues.  They have a shortwave parallel outlet on 6190 kHz but often times 756 kHz comes in with a better signal.

If I remember correctly on a trip to Western Europe the German on 756 is a 

ews-talk station so if you can snag it at any time you won't hear any
