RTÉ Radio 1 ((アイルランド語:RTÉ Raidió 1)) is the principal radio channel of Irish public-service broadcaster Raidió Teilifís Éireann and is the direct descendant of Dublin radio station 2RN, which began broadcasting on a regular basis on 1 January 1926. The station is a rare modern example of a mixed radio channel, offering a wide spectrum of programming which is mainly speech-based but also includes a fair amount of music. The total budget for the station in 2010 was €18.4 million. It is the most listened to radio station in Ireland.〔Cullen, Paul. ("RTE Radio 1 'most listened to'" ). ''The Irish Times''. Thursday, 11 February 2010, 18:31.〕 ==History== The Department of Posts and Telegraphs opened 2RN, the first Irish radio station, on 1 January 1926.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=2RN and the Origins of Irish Radio )〕 Station 6CK, a Cork relay of 2RN, joined the Dublin station in 1927,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Irish Public Service Broadcasting – 1920s )〕 and a high-power transmitter at Athlone in County Westmeath opened in 1932.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Irish Public Service Broadcasting – 1930s )〕 From the latter date the three stations became known as Radio Athlone, later being renamed Radio Éireann ("Irish Radio" / "Radio of Ireland") in 1937. Like most small European national stations at that time, Radio Éireann attempted to satisfy all tastes on a single channel. It broadcast a mixed schedule of light entertainment and heavier fare, Irish language programming, and talks. Radio Éireann also carried sponsored programmes, often produced by Leonard Plugge's International Broadcasting Company, which tended to be more popular than programming made directly by Radio Éireann itself. Run as part of the civil service until 1960, the Broadcasting Authority Act 1960 transferred the station to a statutory corporation, also called Radio Éireann, in preparation for the launch of its sister television station.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Broadcasting Authority Act, 1960 )〕 The name of the corporation was changed to Radio Telefís Éireann in 1966. As a consequence, the station was renamed RTÉ Radio. The station also began FM transmission in 1966. In 1971 the station began the phased move from the GPO on O'Connell Street in Dublin city centre, to a new purpose-built Radio Centre at Donnybrook. When, in 1979, RTÉ established a new rock and pop station under the name of RTÉ Radio 2 (now RTÉ 2fm), the original RTÉ Radio channel was renamed once again and became RTÉ Radio 1. In 1973, ''The Gay Byrne Hour'' began, becoming ''The Gay Byrne Show'' in 1979.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Irish Public Service Broadcasting – 1970s )〕 This anchored the stations daily morning schedule until 1998. On 3 November 1984, current affairs programmes ''Morning Ireland'' and ''Today at Five'' began broadcasting.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=History of Irish Public Service Broadcasting – Timeline )〕 The former is now the flagship programme of RTÉ News and Current Affairs on radio while the latter has evolved into the current ''Drivetime'' programme via ''Five Seven Live''. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「RTÉ Radio 1」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
