THE QUEST FOR RADIO

Ayo Ariyibi — Mon, 11 Sep 2023 14:43:04 +0000

Quest for RADIO

Advances in technology have given people more ways to access an increasing amount of information. However, radio still plays a vital role in today’s world. Radio is more than just announcers, news and songs. Radio is about companionship and the emotional connection with the listener. Radio broadcasts provide real-time information, and some that broadcast 24 hours a day, can provide the most recent updates to listeners. Radio has the ability to reach across borders and can become a valuable source of information where reliable news is scarce.

Radio has proved its worth in times of emergency such as when access to the mobile network is down as a result of an overload, or phone lines are cut. Even when there is no electricity, most radio sets can be battery operated or have the ability to be hand-cranked.

Radio is not just important for reception of emergency announcements and communications during disasters. In small communities like Gibraltar, it provides an outlet for regular community messaging and activities such as local sports, community events, special events, local business advertising, etc.

More importantly, radio is easy to use, it’s live and it’s human. For more than 80 years, radio has survived and prospered by being the easiest of media to use. Wake up in the morning, have a shower, get in the car, turn on the radio.
