De ce erau anunțate "Cotele apelor Dunării" la radio, pe vremea lui Ceaușescu. Emisiunea a continuat mulți ani • Newsweek România

The daily radio broadcast "Cotele apelor Dunării" provided crucial hydrological data for navigators during the communist era in Romania. Initially established before Ceaușescu's regime, it was transmitted in Romanian, French, and Russian, reflecting the international nature of the Danube. The program became a familiar sound for many Romanians, despite being primarily aimed at those navigating the river. It continued after the 1989 revolution, adapting to modern communication methods, and remains relevant today with real-time online updates available for navigators and the public.
