What Radio 5 Broadcasts
The station's own site at radio5fm.com describes Radio 5 as a leading station in the northern zone of La Pampa, with daily programming and close ties to the community. Its weekday schedule includes the morning programme 5 x Semana with Sebastián Castro and Nicolás Stagnaro, the early show Siempre Antes with Nicolás Galletti, and LM Deportiva with Adrián Aimaretti in the afternoon. Directory listings such as Streema place it on 100.5 FM in General Pico, and the site notes that its programming also reaches Metileo on 106.9 MHz under the FM Sueño name in the mornings.
A Voice for the North of La Pampa
Local guides such as TV Argentina list the station as a source of news, sport and music around the clock. In a province of long distances and small towns, a regional station like this does the jobs that national networks cannot: local weather, road conditions, town council news, school and sports results, and the music the community actually likes.
General Pico, a Railway Crossroads
The city was founded on 11 November 1905 by Eduardo de Chapeaurouge and named after a former provincial governor, General Eduardo Gustavo Pico, according to Wikipedia. Its location at the crossing of two railways made it a transport hub, and the surrounding countryside is heavily agricultural, producing meat and grain. It is the second-largest city in La Pampa after the capital, Santa Rosa, and supports two basketball teams in Argentina's national league. Sport, farming and a busy commercial centre give a local station plenty to talk about.
