107.3 fm


Riverton's on air, 24/7! Broadcasting from a caravan parked on the main street of Riverton, we're broadcasting live to the town and beyond every day, round the clock. It's an exhausting experience! I've been delt the 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. slot with plenty of interviews, news and everything else that makes up the radio menu. It's very exciting and so far, without misshap (if you don't count the near calamity during the Christmas parade, where I almost totalled the caravan and it's occupants, guest broadcaster included, during an emergency stop before a crowd of hundreds!) The interviews have been very interesting, with discussions from Malcolm McKenzie on off-shore islands and forest remnants, Bob White on restoring Trotter House, Robert Hirsh on cycling in Central America and teaching in Papua New Guinea and Janice Templeton on the era of flax milling in Southland - and it's only day two! If you care to, find 107.3 fm on your radio and tune in to Radio Riverton! It's 9:35 and the weather outside is...

I've been listening in and it sounds good! Community radio like that is the bomb! How about some stories about your local area - history etc. Everyone likes that.
