Having Trouble?

Facing difficulties tuning in? Here’s some handy tips to help you get Active!


In The Wellington Region?

If you’re in Te Whanganui-a-Tara, and you can get your hands on a radio – tune your dial into 88.6FM

We made the switch to FM on Feb 22, 1982 – the first station in Wellington, and one of the first in Aotearoa, to do so!

Take your walkman and a picnic and stroll around the Te Ahumairangi loop track, for some outstanding views over the city – and some great reception from our transmitter tower, (until 1993, the site of the Wellington maritime radio station, callsign ZLW – New Zealand’s first (official) radio station)


Out Of Town?

You can also listen in from our friends over at TuneIn, or Apple Music – perfect for mobile devices, or home assistants!
