Profile
It is a voice that reaches the whole planet, since ERA 5 transmits to 14 basic geographical destinations of the globe. The voice of ERA 5 meets no borders. It is heard in all five continents, where Greeks live, from the Balkans and Europe to Africa and Japan and from the USA to Australia. It transmits at short wavelength (9420, 15630 and 7475) continually for 23 hours and at medium wave for about 10 hours.
19 Greek bulletins are broadcast from the studios of ERA 5 on a daily basis. The programme also includes informative programmes of political, cultural and folklore interest, as well as musical programmes that promote good Greek songs. But ERA 5 is mainly characterized by programmes that bring it to direct contact with Hellenism through telephone calls and letters.
In parallel, ERA5 is not only intended to the Greeks living abroad, but also to foreigners living in Greece and abroad. It accomplishes this through a daily programme in many languages at short and medium wavelength.
This programme is transmitted in 12 languages: English, German, Spanish, Russian, Polish, Albanian, Rumanian, Serbo-Croatian, Turkish and Arabic.
Thus, ERA5 becomes a source of timely and direct briefing of the various developments in Greece and the world.
The Voice of Greece is intended to the millions of Greeks living in the five continents, to the hundreds of thousands of Greek students mainly in Europe and the USA, to the tens of thousands of Greek sailors at sea, as well as to the numerous Greeks living abroad, who are not speaking Greek and to foreign listeners.
The Voice of Greece has also joined the world community of the Internet with live transmission of its programme 24 hours a day. With a special programme intended to the Greeks living abroad, and with a unique and complete bulletin intended to them and with its transmission to the world web, ERA 5 reaches the Greeks living in all parts of the world.

And her proud ephemerals,
Fast to surface and outside,
Scan the profile of the sphere;
Knew they what that signified,
A new genesis were here.”

Wears its soul like a hat....”
