Regional Stations
There are five Radio Vega regions, each of which provides distinctive programming for its own area at certain times of the day. These regions are:
- Vega Huvudstadsregionen: Finnish Capital Region, based in Helsinki/Helsingfors and also available in other parts of Finland
- Vega Västnyland: Western Nylandia, based in Raseborg/Raasepori
- Vega Östnyland: Eastern Nylandia, based in Porvoo/Borgå
- Vega Österbotten: Ostrobothnia, based in Vaasa/Vasa
- Vega Åboland: Finland Proper and the Åland Islands, based in Turku/Åbo - although it should be noted that Radio Vega's remit does not include coverage of events on Åland, since broadcasting thre is a reserved matter for the autonomous provincial government in Mariehamn. Åland has its own public service radio and television service, Ålands radio och tv.
