Comments

Radio Adelaide, 101.5 FM, was the first community radio station in South Australia, established in 1972 at the University of Adelaide. Its focus is on talks and music, with many specialist music programs. The station is a Registered Training Organisation and provides courses on radio broadcasting.

There is a history of the station on its website and a selection of previously-broadcast programs and program series.

Archival audio and documents of Radio Adelaide, going back to to the early 1970s, can be found at the Barr Smith Library at the University of Adelaide. The Mortlock Library at the State Library of South Australia also holds some material.
