During a visit to Winterswijk, a village located near the border with Germany, I was able to listen to Radio WMW, broadcasting from Bocholt on 88.4 MHz. Benjamin Rotzler was so kind to confirm my report.

The abbreviation WMW stands for West Münsterland Welle. Radio WMW is one of 45 local radio stations in Nordrhein-Westfalen under the umbrella of Radio NRW. NRW provides programs to these local radiostations when they don’t have their own broadcasts scheduled. Pretty efficient!

There are 4 transmitters. I received the 1 kW transmitter from Bocholt, the transmitter in Borken on 97.6 is also 1 kW. The other two frequencies are 500 W.
