Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as counsel to Radio Unica Communications Corp., a Delaware
corporation (the "Company"), in connection with the preparation and filing with
the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), of a Registration Statement on Form S-1
(Registration No. ___________) (the "Registration Statement"), relating to the
proposed public offering (the "Offering") by the Company of 1,311,000 shares of
its Common Stock, par value $.01 per share (the "Shares").

As such counsel, we have examined copies of the Certificate of Incorporation and
By-Laws of the Company, each as amended to the date hereof, the Registration
Statement, the Prospectus which forms a part of the Registration Statement and
originals or copies of such corporate minutes, records, agreements and other
instruments of the Company, certificates of public officials and other
documents, and have made such examinations of law, as we have deemed necessary
to form the basis for the opinion hereinafter expressed. In our examination of
such materials, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the
authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity to
original documents of all copies submitted to us. As to various questions of
fact material to such opinion, we have relied, to the extent we deemed
appropriate, upon representations, statements and certificates of officers and
representatives of the Company and others.

Attorneys involved in the preparation of this opinion are admitted to practice
law in the State of New York and we do not purport to express any opinion herein
concerning any law other than the federal laws of the United States of America
and Delaware corporate law.

Based upon and subject to the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the Shares
being offered by the Company, when and if issued and sold under the
circumstances contemplated by the Registration Statement, will be legally
issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the
Registration Statement and to the reference to this firm under the caption
"Legal Opinions" in the Prospectus which forms a part of the Registration
Statement. In giving such consent, we do not admit hereby that we come within
the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Act or
the Rules and Regulations of the Commission thereunder.

Very truly yours,


STROOCK & STROOCK & LAVAN LLP
