- - We have a new discovery - the name of the station suggests the region of its location.
    I wonder if it is only a sentiment to the old homeland or the actual location?
- - You're right KaySeeks, the pronunciation of Auto made me think that the announcer is
     speaking from Germany, not Czech. Maybe this is the German pronunciation of Bohemia
     (Böhmen)  where  the letter "ö = oa"  and  "h"  is mute.

Agreed. Very much a German-speaker's pronunciation of "Auto" (Ow-toh), not a French-speaker's pronunciation of "Hotel" (au-tell).

Transcription: "I wanted to find out what (something*) means in English, and we have been able to find out that it actually means "ice-cream maker". (Somebody) told me about it earlier and it actually means "ice-cream maker". (Laugh) I don't know why that's funny even. Anyway, the next song is called Man In the Moon by R.E.M. This is Radio Central Boaemia**"

* Sounds like (Rezonat)
** but this sounds like "Bohemia" to me.

Just somebody with a radio, a computer and a pair of headphones...

The station name should definitely be RADIO CENTRAL BOHEMIA!

I just listened to your recordings and found out that the pronunciation "HOTEL" in Czech language accent is something like "outell" so the letter "H" always will be swallowed.
QTH: NW Germany
RX: modified Sony ICF 2001D, Perseus SDR; KiwiSDR
ANT: dipole for 45mB
