The music of your life
Hobart FM plays easy listening and the popular music of past decades: standards, ballads, soul, pop and classic hits from the 50s to the 80s, along with specialty programmes for jazz, country, big band and other genres.
Local voices
Volunteer presenters host most programmes, sharing their knowledge of the music and bringing community information, interviews and news about events and organisations around Hobart.
For mature listeners
The station's relaxed style suits older listeners at home through the day, and many keep it on as a companion. Requests and dedications are part of its charm.
Volunteers
Hobart FM is run largely by volunteers and supported by its members, local sponsors and listeners.
Community radio
Australia has one of the world's largest community radio sectors, with hundreds of not-for-profit stations run largely by volunteers and supported by their listeners, sponsors and grants. They give airtime to local voices, local music and local information that commercial radio rarely reaches, and they are often the only station made in their own town.
