Default Papal Greeting on Vatican Radio

Is it on Christmas (the first day, that is; December 25) that the Pope
gets on the radio and broadcasts greetings in several different
languages, or does he do that on New Year's Day?

For that matter, is Vatican Radio still broadcasting in analog, or is
it in DRM now? What frequencies are good for them?


Most frustrating......... I looked up the web and Radio Vaticano but failed
to find a single reference to the Pope's Urbi et Orbi broadcast anywhere,
though it was said to be beamed to 40 countries.

Reported on BBC, see

Radio Vaticano does give some SW frequencies and times on it's website


WEWN is the big Catholic broadcaster in the USA. You should have no
problem picking them up.
