Radio Mitre is a Buenos Aires news and talk station on AM 790, mixing news bulletins, magazine-style shows, football and music in Spanish. It is one of Argentina's best-known radio names, and you can hear it live on Radio Shuffle for free, whether you are in Palermo or on another continent.
What Radio Mitre Broadcasts
According to Spanish Wikipedia, Radio Mitre carries news programming, magazine-format shows and music, runs its own news service, Mitre Informa Primero, and broadcasts football matches. Its slogan is "Siempre en tu vida," always in your life. The main signal is AM 790 in the Buenos Aires metropolitan area, with affiliated FM and AM stations elsewhere in Argentina, and the station's studios are in the Recoleta district. English Wikipedia describes the format as talk and sports radio.
From LOZ Broadcasting to LR6
Radio Mitre went on air on 16 August 1925 as LOZ Broadcasting La Nación, tied to the Mitre family that founded the newspaper La Nación, and its call sign later changed to LR6, which it still uses. Argentine daily La Nación marked its centenary in 2025 with a look back at its voices and stories. The station was nationalised under Juan Perón, returned to private hands in October 1983, and was bought by Grupo Clarín in 1992.
A Station for Buenos Aires Mornings
AM talk radio is a way of life in Buenos Aires, where taxis, kitchens and offices keep the dial tuned to news and debate from breakfast on. Mitre sits at the centre of that habit, alongside sister stations La 100 and Mía FM under the same group. Because opinions and line-ups change, check the station's schedule for who is on air today.
Why Listen From Abroad
For Argentines living overseas, Mitre is a familiar voice from home, and for Spanish learners it offers fast, natural conversation and the local slang of Buenos Aires, the porteño Spanish that sounds like nowhere else.
