Frequently asked questions about HFM live
The FM 102.3 signal reaches as far as the transmitter carries it and no further. Streaming removes that limit entirely: what plays here is the same output going out over the air, so HFM sounds the same from another part of the country or from abroad.
Stations built on older music work from a settled catalogue rather than a rotating playlist, which is the point: the songs have already proved they last, and the audience comes precisely because it knows them.
Commercial radio has to deliver an audience to advertisers, which pushes it towards broad formats. A community station has no such requirement, so it can cover a single town, a single language group or a single genre in a way national radio never would.
Not blocked. Listening to British radio from abroad is one of the more common uses of streaming, and HFM is available worldwide, free and without an account.
It is on FM 102.3. Bear in mind that several British networks use different frequencies in each area, so that figure applies to this particular service.
