THE DOMESTIC AND INTERNATIONAL STATIONS

Brazil alone, has over one hundred Domestic Shortwave stations, most of them, commercial, but few people are aware of the International Service of Radiobrás, the radio-communications arm of the Brazilian Government.
It transmits programs similar to those of The Voice of America (VOA) and the British Broadcast Company (BBC), although on a much abbreviated schedule.
Radiobrás' programs go on the air seven days a week, with the duration of one hour and twenty minutes each, in the English, Spanish, German and Portuguese languages.
These programs contain a well-balanced mix of news, music and daily Brazilian life. They are beamed towards North, Central and South America (Continental South Conus) Africa and Europe.

From my home in Newark, NJ, I can also listen to Radio Nacional da Amazônia, from about one hour before dusk, to well after dawn.
This allows me to keep fairly current with the news of Brazil, a country of which I was a resident for 20 years.
Some programs I normally listen to, are: "A Voz do Brasil", "Jornal Nacional", "Esporte Total" and live soccer games.

Furthermore, here is a brief rundown of a few other stations I have logged:

Radio Nacional do Brasil - English Svce.

15,445 kiloHertz on the 19 meter-band to N. AM.
