New community station for Wagga

The ABA has allocated a new community licence for Wagga Wagga to Riverina Christian Radio Incorporated (Life FM) on FM 101.9.

Life FM is currently broadcasting on that frequency under a temporary community broadcasting licence that expires on 8 February 2003. The permanent community radio broadcasting licence will commence the next day.

ABA Chairman David Flint said: “Life FM is proposing to provide a service to meet the needs of the Christian community of Wagga Wagga. This new service will provide Christian programming with a focus on music, including both Christian and mainstream music.”
