Radio Luxembourg


 

Radio Luxembourg (1933-1992) was an important forerunner of pirate radio and modern commercial radio in Europe. It was a cheap and effective way to advertise in the UK, France and (since 1957) in Germany by circumventing the broadcasting restrictions in place at the time. For many years complete English programmes were pre-recorded in London and flown to the tiny independent grand duchy of Luxembourg on mainland Europe. German programs were produced in a studio in Luxembourg. A powerful transmitter enabled broadcasts to be received throughout northern Europe.
