Radio New Zealand Guide, Meaning , Facts, Information and Description
Radio New Zealand is New Zealand's public service radio broadcaster. Previously, radio services were provided by the New Zealand Broadcasting Corporation (NZBC), and, before 1961, the New Zealand Broadcasting Service (NZBS). It became a separate State-Owned Enterprise in 1988, along with Television New Zealand, following the dissolution of Broadcasting Corporation of New Zealand (BCNZ).In 1995, the Radio New Zealand Commercial (RNZC) networks were privatised, with the non-commercial New Zealand Public Radio (NZPR) known simply as 'Radio New Zealand' (RNZ). The changes also resulted in RNZ's removal from the State-Owned Enterprises Act 1986 and it being made a Crown Entity.
RNZ has two main national networks, National Radio, which carries news, current affairs, and arts, and Concert FM, which is dedicated to classical music and jazz. National Radio generally broadcasts on AM, but is now increasingly available on FM in major cities. RNZ's third network, AM Network, is leased to a private Christian broadcaster while it is not broadcasting parliament.
Radio New Zealand International broadcasts on shortwave to neighbouring countries in the Pacific from a transmitter on North Island.
