There was Radio Luxembourg though..

In Darmstadt, Germany, in the mid-60s, I didn’t know of Radio Luxembourg—it was probably out of range for my portable AM radio. But in 1971-72, when I was at Saarland University in Saarbrücken, which is not far from Luxembourg, I was a regular listener. The Armed Forces Network was now playing Top 40 for a new generation of soldiers, so I kept up with the charts through the AFN station at Kaiserslautern (which the Americans called K-Town and the Germans called Lautern).

On Radio Luxembourg and local German stations, I was able to hear some songs that were hits in Europe but didn't chart Stateside, such as Is This the Way to Amarillo? by Tony Christie and Don't let Him Touch You by the Angelettes. After returning to the US, I never again heard these tunes until Youtube came along.

Radio Luxembourg was my go to station my last two years in Germany. The morning drive was all German, and the British feed was during the afternoons. British rock wasn't all that great, but it was a welcome diversion from AFN.
