Renascença

Rádio Renascença, also known as RR or just 'Renascença', is a private, commercial radio station in Portugal, owned by various organizations within the Portuguese Catholic Church: among others, the Patriarchate of Lisbon. Founded in 1934, it began broadcasting in 1936. Renascença owns another three stations: RFM, Mega Hits FM, and until 2020, Rádio Sim. Some programs, notably newscasts and religious events, are broadcast simultaneously on both Rádio Renascença and Rádio Sim. Rádio Renascença is available in mainland Portugal on FM. Rádio Sim was available on medium wave, covering most of mainland Portugal, as well as on FM in some regions. RR's most powerful medium-wave transmitter – operating on a frequency of 594 kHz with a power of 100 kW – is situated near the village of Muge, some 75 km north-east of Lisbon. It is a 259-meter-high guyed mast radiator and also Portugal's tallest structure.
