German radio “Deutschlandfunk Kultur” reports: “Cultural frequencies under pressure” 1152 610 SOS - Save our Spectrum

Our friend Johannes Everke (BDKV Managing Director) says, among other things:

  • “Cultural frequencies are as important to us as electricity or water.”
  • “We expect a clear signal: culture needs frequencies, and it needs them permanently.”
  • “Without frequencies, microphones can fail, as has already happened.”
  • “We have already lost 40% of our frequencies to mobile communications.”
  • “In some parts of Germany, there are not enough frequencies for us.”
  • “Only a very small region around Kassel is free of interference.”
  • “A separate security network (BOS) may only work around Kassel.”
  • “Cable microphones are not an alternative.”

The moderator suggests that all major events should take place in North Hesse in the future (“Kasseler Banane”).
