It is a "generalist" station carrying a wide range of principally spoken-word and information-based programming, and is RTBF's main radio news channel.[citation needed]

It is broadcast on FM, and digital (DAB and DVB-T), as well as being streamed on the internet. It has been announced that the Medium Wave service on 621 kHz from the Wavre transmitter has already ceased on 31 December 2018.[2]

History

The radio station was first launched on 24th November 1923 at 11am (CET) under the ownership of the Société Belge Radio-électrique [nl] (SBR) called Radio Belgique,[3] until it was acquired by the state-run Belgian National Broadcasting Institute (INR/NIR) in 1930.
