\u201cWorld Radio Television Handbook\u201d Lives On<\/a><\/h1>\n

With its comprehensive listing of radio\/television stations worldwide, including their frequencies and general program content, the\u00a0\u201cWorld Radio Television Handbook<\/a>\u201d has been an essential companion for broadcasting listeners and radio professionals.<\/p>\n

So when publisher Nicholas Hardyman announced that the 2022 edition of the WRTH would be the last, many reacted in horror \u2014 but not the folks at Germany\u2019s\u00a0Radio Data Center<\/a>.<\/p>\n

[…]Because books are hard to update, Radio Data Center also offers the WRTH WebApp. It is an online version of the WRTH\u2019s content that is easy for Radio Data Center to update on a regular basis.<\/p>\n

\u201cAn electronic product like the WebApp doesn\u2019t have the same problems as a book that has to be printed and shipped, because it\u2019s available online anywhere,\u201d said Gunter.<\/p>\n
