RTE Gold Radio

RTE Gold Radio

RTE Gold Radio broadcasts UAE and international music that varies too from genre to genre. Although their main genre of choice is Classic Hits they don’t have any problem playing songs from genres like hip hop, urban, etc. RTE Gold Radio’s main vision is to play what their listeners will listen to or if saying the other way what their listeners would like to listen to. As Dublin, Ireland has its own beautiful tradition of music and culture RTE Gold Radio most of the time tries to play songs and arrange programs that are gonna represent its own tradition of music and culture.

RTÉ Radio is a division of the Irish national broadcasting organization Raidió Teilifís Éireann. RTÉ Radio broadcasts four analog channels and five digital channels nationwide.

The first voice broadcast of 2RN, the original radio callsign for what would eventually become RTÉ Radio 1, took place on 14 November 1925 when Seamus Clandillon, the station director, announced on air: “Seo Raidió 2RN, Baile Átha Cliath ag tástáil”, Irish for “This is Radio 2RN, Dublin testing”. Regular Irish radio-broadcasting began on 1 January 1926. However, people in most of Ireland could not receive 2RN’s (1.5 kilowatts) signal at the time. When faced with numerous complaints from Cork regarding the writers’ inability to tune in to the signal, Clandillon remarked in The Irish Radio Review, a magazine dedicated to the service, that they did not know how to operate their sets. A second station, 6CK (mostly relaying the transmissions of 2RN), was established in Cork in 1927.
