NPO Radio 1 is apublic-serviceradio channel in theNetherlands, and is part of theNetherlands Public Broadcasting, NPO. It features mostly news, talk, and sport programming with a variety of music (fromclassic hits tooldies toadult contemporary to ethnic music).
Its history dates back to 1924, when the first omroeps started sharing time on two longwave transmitters. In 1930, these stations started broadcasting on medium wave. Shortly before World War II, there were already two radio stations out of Hilversum, which were later captured by the Germans. With the end of occupation, a new station operating out of Lopik started, while Radio Nederland reclaimed its former frequencies in January 1946, during the transitional government.[1]
The channel originated in its current form in 1947 as "Hilversum 2", and transmitted using its original name until 1 December 1985, when the name was changed to "Radio 1", and remained so until becoming "NPO Radio 1" in 2014.[2]
In June 2003, the AM frequencies were given to747 AM, which were vacated in 2015.[1]
