Power FM (its official call sign is 5EZY) is a popular radio station in Murray Bridge, South Australia. It plays the latest hit songs, which is why its style is called "contemporary hit radio." You can tune in to Power FM on 98.7 FM. To make sure more people can listen, the station also has special transmitters. These are in Victor Harbor on 99.7 FM and in the Adelaide Hills on 100.3 FM.

Power FM's Ownership and Future

In November 2021, something big happened for Power FM. The company that owned it, Grant Broadcasters, sold many of its radio stations, including Power FM, to a larger company called the Australian Radio Network (ARN). This sale was completed on January 4, 2022.

What This Means for Power FM Listeners

This new ownership is exciting because it allows Power FM to use ARN's special online platform called iHeartRadio. This means you might be able to listen to Power FM online more easily. Even though it's now part of ARN, Power FM will keep its familiar name. It is expected to join ARN's KIIS Network, which is a group of popular radio stations across Australia.
