RNE












Radio Nacional de España officially came into existence in 1937 during the Spanish Civil War.  Their first transmitter was a gift from Germany's Third Reich and was used to broadcast news and propaganda for the Francoist dictatorship.  The modern RNE currently carries six radio channels:

Radio Nacional (generalist news/talk radio) Radio Clásica (classical music) Radio 3 (pop/rock music and youth culture radio) Radio 4 (regional broadcating in the Catalan language) Radio 5 (all-news) and Radio Exterior (international shortwave broadcasts.)
