Special Christmas Eve broadcast from NDR


To receive the "greetings on board" broadcasts
It has tradition and exudes a very special pre-Christmas mood: On Christmas Eve greetings are sent to the sailors from all over the world on NDR Info starting at 8:05 pm. And on the most different channels and technical ways, so that the greetings and messages can be guaranteed to be received on all seven seas.

The ship's crews have several options to receive the message "Greeting on board". Also the shortwave belongs to it.
The livestreams of the program (20.05 to 22 clock and 23.05 clock to 24 clock MEZ) can be found here: NDR Info and NDR Info Special . In addition, there is the possibility to listen to the program via the NDR radio app. NDR Info can also be received via FM, DAB + and DVB-S radio, NDR Info special only via DAB + and DVB-S radio.

So that all crew members on board - on the seas or in the harbors - can receive the traditional program, the NDR radio has also rented shortwave frequencies:
