History
Location of Luxembourg (circled).

RTL Radio began broadcasting as the German service of Radio Luxembourg on 15 July 1957. Along with the Saarland-based pirate radio Europe 1, Luxembourg interfered with the non-commercial monopoly imposed by the German states since broadcasting first started in the country. Apart from advertising reaching German radios for the first time, RTL also introduced Germans from both East and West to rock-and-roll, bebop/cool jazz and other types of American popular music which contrasted to the classical repertoire that had dominated mainland services.

In 1990, Radio Luxembourg was renamed RTL Hörfunk. On 1 July 2015 RTL Radio branded itself RTL Radio – Deutschlands Hit-Radio and moved its studios from the City of Luxembourg to Berlin.

RTL Radio has slots on analog and digital cable, and transmits digital signals via the Astra 1L satellites.

gollark: Neither!
gollark: Well, obviously you'll have some items available to build stuff from.
gollark: - Checks if the available-items list already contains the item needed. If so, just return that.- If not, checks for recipes to do what is wanted- If one exists, iterate over them (not sure what to *do* with them)- If none exists, we can't do anything, so just return no tasks, no costs and no outputs.
