From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Radio 2ME is one of two full time Arabic language radio stations in Sydney, Australia.

2ME was established in 1996 in Sydney, and has since grown to provide services in all of Australia's capital cities.

2ME is the only high power 24-hour Arabic language commercial radio station to broadcast free-to-air to throughout Australia including the two major capitals of Sydney and Melbourne on 1638KHz AM. In April 2007, the radio station set out to broadcast in digital using the DRM (Digital Radio Mondiale) format in Sydney.

The website claims "The format is adult contemporary, featuring the latest in Arabic and English language hits, Radio 2ME plays Top 40 music favourites, as well as Classic Hits from the 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s and today. Radio 2ME broadcasts a mix of local and national news on the hour along with BBC World News on the hour, 24 hours a day".

Other Arabic language programming in Sydney is provided by 2moro 1620AM, SBS and a variety of community radio stations, however according to statistics from market surveys 2ME appears to have the greatest listener share of all Arabic language radio in Sydney, Australia.
