Regional broadcasting for Prague was launched by Czechoslovak Radio on 31 August 1964. On 2 January 1991, the Prague and Central Bohemia studios merged under the name Regina. In 2001, Regina launched a separate broadcast for the Central Bohemian Region, which became completely independent on 21 October 2002 under the name ČRo Region.[1]
On 2 November 2015, the Regina station was renamed Regina DAB Praha and left the analogue VHF band. The programme changed significantly - the demanding programmes disappeared from the airwaves and the distinctive feature became music and live moderated inputs with service information (news, weather, transport, culture).[2] Another name change took place on 1 October 2019, when the station changed its name to Český rozhlas Rádio DAB Praha.
Since 2 January 2023, the station has been called simply Radio Praha. According to Czech Radio, the new name was intended to attract new listeners in the target group of 25-40 years old, for whom the name Regina was unattractive. The change was also accompanied by a change in the station's sound graphics and the names of some programmes.[3][4]
The station broadcasts a daily stream of music and information from 6:00am to 7:00pm. On weekends, the magazines S vámi v Praze (Saturday 12:00) and Up to the marrow (Sunday 12:00) are included. Radio Prague broadcasts news all day twice an hour and traffic information every 15 minutes.
Radio Prague broadcasts in Prague in analogue on very short waves, digital broadcasting is also available in the multiplex ČRo DAB+, in DVB-S2 and on the Internet. Since January 2023, the station is broadcast in FM broadcasting for the territory of Prague on the frequency 107,1 FM.
