A method and a device detect and reproduce radiotelephony messages emitted by a plurality of transmitters via radio at an air traffic controller workplace. It is analyzed whether a plurality of radiotelephony messages arriving at the air traffic controller workplace overlap one another chronologically, and if they do, one of the radiotelephony messages is prioritized and immediately emitted at the air traffic controller workplace. At least one other radiotelephony message is buffered, and the at least one buffered radiotelephony message is emitted at the air traffic controller workplace after the end of the prioritized radiotelephony message.
