Rhodes Music Radio
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Rhodes Music Radio is the radio station of Rhodes University and one of South Africa's most respected campus broadcasters. In addition to its deeply impressive output of media professionals, many of whom have become household names in the world of radio and TV, it was also the first campus broadcaster in South Africa's history to be given an FM licence. The pioneering broadcasts of RMR's FESTIVAL FM were reported worldwide in 1991 as global media highlighted this 'first breaking' of the half-century monopoly on broadcasting exercised by the South African Broadcasting Corporation (SABC).
