The Graubünden government is taking a diplomatic approach to the relicensing of private radio stations. Bakom is to decide whether Roger Schawinski can set up and operate a private station in south-eastern Switzerland. Both Radio Grischa/Radio Engiadina of the Südostschweiz Media Group, which has been in existence for 20 years, and Radio Südost, a project by Roger Roger Schawinski, Stefan Bühler and Dani Sigel, are capable of fulfilling the programming mandate, the Graubünden government announced on Wednesday. Concession 32 covers the cantons of Graubünden and Glarus as well as the St. Gallen Oberland.
The initiators of Radio Südost welcome the Graubünden government's statement. The chance of a license being granted by OFCOM has been preserved, they announced on Wednesday.
Schawinski and partners want to "crack the Graubünden media monopoly", as they announced in December. They therefore regret that the government has not commented on the monopoly situation.
There is no competition for the Südostschweiz Group in regional television. The Graubünden government supports Südostschweiz Radio/TV AG's application for a license for Tele Südostschweiz.
