ABC Darwin

ABC Darwin broadcasts on 105.7 FM, the local station of the Australian Broadcasting Corporation for Darwin and the Top End of the Northern Territory. The programming follows the tropics: breakfast talk, local news, fishing reports, and the stories of a city that lives with monsoon summers and a strong Aboriginal culture around it - a city that sits closer to Jakarta than to Sydney. The Territory has its own pace, its own politics and its own sense of humor, and the station reflects all of it.

Darwin knows what local radio is for. When Cyclone Tracy flattened the city on Christmas morning 1974, it was the local broadcasters who carried the city through - and the station has kept that emergency role ever since, through every cyclone season. ABC Darwin streams live online, so the voice of the Top End reaches listeners anywhere, from the outback to overseas.
