Both transmitters were used to broadcast the national broadcast of Radio
Patria between 6:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. in the evening. In the night hours,
it was supplemented by the broadcasting of the RTVS Radio Devin program
service. Medium wave radio broadcasting accompanied its listeners for
a long time - from 1926 to the present day. Medium wave broadcasting was


gradually replaced by FM broadcasting in the VHF band and listeners on
medium waves gradually decreased. Today, Slovak Radio is expanding its
coverage in the T-DAB+ digital broadcasting standard in band III."

There are links on the webpage to a long timeline on the history of broad-
casting in Czechoslovakia and Slovakia with photos and audio and article
on their DAB+ history and expansion at the link for those interested, both
translate well to English.

The correct frequency is 702 kHz, not 720 as stated on the website.
