Based on the Law on Radio and Television the instructions for VHF network planning adopted by the Federal Council define the local/regional coverage areas of the individual radio stations and stipulate the number of the respective licensed radio stations.
Based on article 8, para. 1 of the Law on Radio and Television (LRTV Radio- und Fernsehgesetzes (RTVG)) the instructions for VHF network planning (VHF instructions) adopted by the Federal Council define the local/regional coverage areas of the individual radio stations and stipulate the number of the respective licensed radio stations. The VHF instructions therefore represent a media policy regulatory instrument for planning the local radio landscape. Technical planning of the transmitter network for the individual coverage areas remains as before within the jurisdiction of the Federal Office of Communications (OFCOM).
