Explanatory note

Earlier, Klubrádió repeatedly violated provisions of the MediaAct, which is why Media Council didn’t extend the right to provide media services. The case was investigated by Hungarian authorities and courts. Recently, TilosRádió submitted a re-application for FM90.3 frequency. Having met the legal requirements, they won the tender and will continue to operate.
