History
In 1985, VOA Europe was established as a special radio service in English, accessible through satellite to AM, FM, as well as cable affiliates throughout Europe. With a contemporary format including live disc jockeys, the network presented top musical hits, VOA news, and features of local interest 24 hours a day.
VOA Europe was closed down without public notice in January 1997 as a cost-cutting measure. It was succeeded by VOA Express, which, from July 4, 1999, was revamped into VOA Music Mix. On November 1, 2014, VOA Music Mix was rebranded as VOA1.[1][2]
