I have created several radio mods for Silent Hunter 4, as well as seperate music files, divided by year. All except the music files are JoneSoft Generic Mod Enabler compatible. The files in the mods are of a higher bitrate than some other mods, so they are quite large as a consequence. In fact, you may not wish to use JSGME with a couple of them because of this.
Radio stations do not include music, only the appropriate news and entertainment programs. Except for the KGMB station, all are subdivided by year for the music files. While you can control programs in the "Events" folder with events.ini, you can't control the music. And hearing a song about Iwo Jima in 1942 is just ...wrong. :-) I have only included comedy and variety programs with the stations. Adding dramas would not only make them even bigger, but programs like that would likely get tedious to listen to after awhile. The radio station parts can be found in individual folders on the site.
All except the music files include readmes. These contain installation instructions, more information, and the channel info you'll need to copy and paste into the "radio.ini" in order to hear the radio stations.
Here is what I have available:
1940 (184 songs), 1941 (219 songs), 1942 (145 songs), 1943 (75 songs), 1944 (129 songs), and 1945 (123 songs) music files. Can be used with any radio station, or the Gramophone.

This is the real life CBS radio station KGMB in Honolulu. This station plays news produced by the CBS network, as well as some speeches. This station is famous as the one both the Japanese and the American B-17 bombers used to home in on Honolulu on the morning of December 7th, 1941. It does not include any entertainment programs.
