I am Portuguese and not Brazilian, therefore I can't recommend you any
Brazilian radio station. Here in Europe there are a couple of stations
that broadcast in Brazilian Portuguese toward Brazil on short wave
and/or the internet. You certainly can be interested in listening to
them, too. Here are three links:

- BBC: http://www.bbc.co.uk/portuguese/ (look for "áudio" buttons on
the right);

- Radio France Internationale:
http://www.rfi.fr/actubr/pages/001/accueil.asp (click on "Escutar" (to
listen) or "Carregar" (to download));

- Radio Nederland: http://www2.rnw.nl/rnw/pt/ (select "Audio" on the
left, then on "Ouça ao vivo" (listen live) and finally select your
option: "banda estreita" (narrow band), "banda larga" (wide band), or
"baixar" (to download)).

If you prefer to listen to such transmissions to Brazil through the
air waves, you can look for them around midnight (UK time) on short
waves, namely on the 25, 31, 41 and 49 meter bands. The Portuguese
language programmes of Radio Peking (aka China Radio International)
can be found also on some odd frequencies, that are out of band. As to
Radio Moscow (aka The Voice of Russia), I don't recommend it to you,
because they speak Portuguese with a relatively heavy Russian accent.

Enjoy your listening
