Upcoming 45th Anniversary of FRS Holland

 Dear FRS-Holland friend,


On Sunday, November 2nd, 2025FRS-Holland will celebrate its 45th anniversary.
Together with you! We warmly invite you to be part of the celebratory broadcast.

That day, we will be on the air from 09:52 to 15:05 CET on several frequencies.
Of course, we will share the exact frequencies with you ahead of the broadcast by e-mail and on our website [ www.frsholland.nl ].

What can you expect? A day full of surprises. We’ll present a number of entertaining and varied programmes with music from the period 1980- 2015.
Several interesting topics will run as a common thread through the shows.

In one segment, you, as a listener, will play an important role!  We’d like to ask you to be part of our programme content that day.
How? If you can, please send us a one-sentence answer to the following questionWhat does FRS-Holland mean to you?
Let us know! Reply by e-mail or via our POBox 2702 in Herten. A written message is fine; a spoken answer (mp3) is of course, even better,
but we realize that not everyone has recording facilities. Please put in the 'subject' line of your mail: 'FRS 45 years'.

Because the November broadcast requires a lot of preparation, please send your contribution as soon as possible in any case before Sunday, October 5th, 2025!
It’s not much work; think it over and send it. You’ll make us very happy: after all, we’d love to involve you, as a loyal listener, in the celebratory broadcast.

Sunday, November 2nd, 2025: FRS-Holland  45 years of free radio on shortwave. It will be a broadcast not soon to be forgotten!

We count on you!
