Might I suggest including Radio Luxemburg? It's one of the earliest commercial stations in Europe.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_Luxembourg_(English)

It would also open up some interesting possibilities. Until the German occupation it broadcast in French and in English. During the occupation it hosted the infamous Lord Haw Haw. And then after the Liberation it continued broadcasts in German to spread allied propaganda (Radio 1212)

Another interesting station was Kurzwellensender Atlantik, another allied station that was specifically intended for U-boat crews.

There is currently a 'Radio Paris' mod which should contain some MP3's that will give you an idea about what will work in SH5.

I'll be more than happy to volunteer to test your radio stations. Just upload your stuff and email/message me a download link. I'll let you know if/what works and what doesn't.

This sounds fantastic. Can't wait for the release!

If you can, find broadcasts from "Radio Königsberg". It was a nazi station sending propaganda in Swedish directed towards Sweden (obviously)

.

On the English side I found this website featuring MP3 with "Lord Haw Haw"

Here below is a website featuring information on radio transmissions during the war with a few snippets:

Wow, guys! Awesome response, really!

SwampyUK— thanks for the lats!

TempDude— Yep I have those Lord Haw Haw files, they'll definitely be in the Berlin pack. That second link I haven't seen yet, I'll try and explore it tonight.

Able72— Yes I looked at the Radio Paris mod, I'll make a french mod that can either be its own Radio Bordeax station, or combined into the Radio Paris. Thanks for the test offer, I'll try and put something together in the next day or two, i'll message you.

EAF274 Johan—A Luxembourg station would be great. Though I'll need to table it till I have more files to work with. I'm sure having duplicates on a Berlin Station and a Lux one wouldn't be a problem as long as there aren't too many. I know you can have stations have a start and stop date, so it'd be neat to eventually make a station that clearly changes upon allied capture.

I've been in touch with the Dutch forums, a few members have been very helpful and pointed me in the right direction. I'll be starting to put together a Dutch station too. Whether its going to be an occupied station, or a British broadcast for Dutch citizens, i'm not sure yet.

Anyone have recommendations for a good hosting site? I know of rapidshare, but it kinda sucks.
