History

Radio Koper was first heard on 24 May 1949, called '' Radio jugoslovanske cone Trsta - Radio Trieste zona Jugoslava'' (Radio Triest, Yugoslav Zone), and it started to broadcast a day later. It was owned by D. D. Radiofonia SA, set up by the then Yugoslav military administration Zone B of the former Free Territory of Trieste. After the abolition of the Free Territory in 1954, it teamed up with Radio Ljubljana and was later known as ''Radio Koper - Capodistria''. Until 1954, it broadcast programs in Slovenian, Italian and Croatian. From 1954 to 1979, the program was mainly in Italian, while two short blocks were reserved to Slovenian in the morning and evening time. In 1979, the two linguistic versions of the radio separated, each with its own transmitter network. Studio Nova Gorica became operational in 1980, and in 1992 Radio Koper expanded into the Slovenian holding as an all-day radio broadcast.

Radio Koper - Capodistria as a border and minority radio station played a very important role in the history of this area in bringing together neighbouring nations, especially during the Cold War. For many years Radio Capodistria was one of the three most listened radio stations in Italy, its signal is stretched even to the shores of Africa, carrying Socialist and Titoist cross-border propaganda particularly appreciated by the members and sympathisers of the Italian Communist Party, particularly its youth. After the independence of Slovenia, Radio Koper became an organisational unit of RTV Slovenia, which has eliminated the transmission system in Italy, while the cross-border program shifted to minority and regional.
