[HCDX] HRN La Voz de Honduras cumple 82 años
HRN La Voz de Honduras cumple 82 añoshttp://www.radiohrn.hn/l/noticias/%C2%A1estamos-de-aniversario Este domingo HRN “La Voz de Honduras”, cumple 82 años al servicio del país. En más de ocho décadas, esta emisora ha estado ligada al corazón del pueblo hondureño.Aquel 1 de noviembre de 1933, se hicieron realidad los esfuerzos y la decisión de los fundadores de HRN: Don Rafael Ferrari García y su esposa, Rosario Sagastume Torres de Ferrari.Desde entonces, HRN se convirtió en parte fundamental de la historia nuestra y, con el devenir de los años, se ha consolidado como el medio de comunicación más influyente.Es, por justicia, “La Voz de Honduras”, la radioemisora con mayor credibilidad, prestigio y liderazgo a toda prueba; en suma, la catedral radial de nuestro país.En cada década HRN ha marcado pauta en la radiodifusión nacional. Ha sido la emisora abanderada de las causas más nobles del pueblo, en defensa de la democracia y de la institucionalidad del país.En los años 30, HRN juega un papel importante en circunstancias políticas especiales a nivel nacional y, en el ámbito internacional, es la época en que comienza a gestarse la Segunda Guerra Mundial.Siempre en esta misma década HRN, inició operando con un transmisor de mil vatios, la estación radial en ese entonces comenzó a transmitir música transcrita, boletines de noticias proporcionados por la empresa Tropical Radio y retransmisión de espacios de programas informativos de la National Broadcasting Company (NBC), empresa estadounidense con quien se hizo una afiliación para servicios internacionales.Los cuarenta estuvieron dominados por el conflicto militar global y la HRN mantuvo informados a los hondureños de este evento y sus incidencias en la región, a través de la llamada Cadena de las Américas de que formaba parte “La Voz de Honduras”.La época de oro llegó en los 50, cuando se producen las grandes transformaciones de la radio que ya No transmite por onda corta, sino por AM con la frecuencia autorizada de los 670 kilohertz.La HRN se pone en sintonía con la tendencia predominante en aquel entonces y es así como se abren espacios a los programas musicales en sus distintos géneros.Asimismo, transmitiendo desde sus estudios centrales en Tegucigalpa, “La Voz de Honduras”, que desde 1952 mantenía en el aire el radioperiodico más importante y escuchado del país, “DIARIO MATUTINO”, en 1956 “EL INFORMATIVO DEL MEDIODÍA”, y en 1958 “GACETA INFORMATIVA” ampliando su programación noticiosa combinándola con transmisiones deportivas especialmente el futbol.Esas características de una cadena radial con cobertura del 98 por ciento del territorio nacional hicieron una ampliación de la red de repetidores llevando la señal a la zona Oriental, zona Central, zona Occidental Zona Norte, Zona Sur y el Litoral Atlántico.Llegaron los años 60. La “Voz de Honduras” hace historia al conectar una red de repetidores. Más importante todavía es que, al calor de HRN, surge Emisoras Unidas como el complejo radial de mayor peso.La emisora ligada al corazón del pueblo hondureño evolucionó en los años 70, cuando se realizan las primeras transmisiones satelitales.En la década de los 80, los hondureños retornamos al orden institucional. HRN se convierte en un baluarte en defensa de la democracia. Los 90, establecen nuevos retos que la estación emblemática de nuestro país enfrenta con innovaciones tecnológicas y nuevos formatos noticiosos.En los años 2000, HRN le da la bienvenida a un nuevo milenio implementando la tecnología de punta para el servicio de los hondureños alcanzando reportes de audiencia en países de los cinco continentes del planeta.HRN, transmite sus noticieros a nivel nacional desde las cinco de la mañana hasta las 11 de la noche, con horarios intermedios destinados a programas de opinión y educativos, franjas deportivas y humorísticas locales.Su departamento de prensa está organizado con una coordinación adscrita a la Gerencia General de la empresa, sub coordinadores que a su vez actúan como presentadores de los espacios estelares, una Jefatura de Producción que tiene a su cargo a los analistas, redactores, reporteros y corresponsales nacionales diseminados en todo el país.Por su prestigio ganado durante 82 años de mantenerse como la emisora seria, responsable y objetiva de Honduras, por la cobertura del territorio nacional con su red de repetidores en AM y FM. Y a nivel mundial a través de su página web www.radiohrn.hn su cuanta oficial en twitter y Facebook y por su profesionalismo “HRN”, “La Voz de Honduras”, es la emisora numero uno en audiencia y por ende, el medio radial de mayor confianza publicitaria en el país.Hoy arribamos a los 82 años. En todo este tiempo, hemos mantenido vigentes los principios que inspiraron a sus fundadores: Vigilar con responsabilidad, objetividad y seriedad el cumplimiento de nuestra función social. Por este motivo es que “La Voz de Honduras” está ligada al corazón del pueblo

EJOM is sounding quite vivacious, considering he is dead since 2010. This loops NE/SW and is surely KXEL Waterloo IA, still in on skywave half a sesquihour after sunrise here. Yes, on the SNB radio log at: https://www.assembliesofyahweh.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/Radio-and-TV-Log.pdf Which however is amusingly outdated, a page from their magazine of two years ago, and it was outdated even then. Of only five US domestic stations, KXEL`s time shown as Sunday 11:30-12:00 pm = ambiguously meaning morning instead of night? Also with long-gone split-frequency Caribbean outlets, Dominica 595, Grenada 535, and also Radio Anguilla 1530 --- huh? Was it ever on that frequency? Long ago it was on 1505, and a neat split DX catch for many including myself. As for WMLK shortwave, CYA: ``WMLK Radio Assemblies of Yahweh Shortwave (Note: There are times that WMLK is not broadcasting because of maintenance or repairs.)`` I`ll say! it remains off the air as it has been for over a decade. Read all about it at http://wmlkradio.net/ especially this Update page, but undated and unchanged for years, no progress at all? They got the 250 kW unit in 2006! http://wmlkradio.net/wmlk_radio_bbc_250kw_tx_update.htm If they
