And please keep American top forty going on Sundays 😊 ### 5/5 — Easy listening *2024-09-28* Nice to be able to listen to a radio station that doesn’t continues advertising and tell you every minutes on what station you’re listening to. Content is entertaining and the local news is informed. Love your work 2NUR ### 5/5 — So good *2024-09-27, version 25.5* This is a great station if you’re after golden hits. Love it. ### 5/5 — Fantastic Music Mix *2024-09-13, version 25.0* 2NURFM You just have to love it! Great music all day. I enjoy the morning banner with Todd and he plays perfect songs. Mark is in formative with his information. Amanda is terrific… she has such a happy warming voice and I love her giggles.🤭 Kev has that “ groomer” voice…nice. Ian your cool 😎 Greg on the weekends is also nice to listen to. You know…. It’s just an all round fantastic radio station…well done. ### 5/5 — Tune in to the app anywhere in the world. *2024-08-05, version 25.0* On my travels in Australia or overseas, the 2NURFM app allows me to tune in anywhere and catch-up on what’s happening in the Hunter area. ### 5/5 — Been listening for 40 years *2024-07-10* Been listening to 2NURFM for over 40 years since a teenager. Best thing is minimal adds and no shock jocks. Equally excellent is the range of music. Plays latest music all way through to the 60’s and earlier. It’s a community based station, so is not included in the radio station ratings, but would win the ratings against the commercial stations, if they were allowed to enter the ratings. ### 5/5 — Love this station ❤️ *2024-05-29, version 25.0* It has everything from the best music to segments on pets, natural medicine, gardening, latest technology, personal cooking tips and general chit chat. Best station in the Hunter in my opinion. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Music *2026-06-14, version 28.0* The station has become more eighties oriented Pretty much what you can get from the other major stations 60’s and 70’s seems to be an afterthought now ### 1/5 — App not working *2023-12-04, version 24.5* Since last update, app won’t work ### 2/5 — Novo *2025-10-09, version 27.2* Keeps dropping out ### 2/5 — Okay, but *2019-12-23* Let’s say you wanted to use this app to, say, listen to the radio station. You need to have a good steady WiFi or mobile signal .... and stay still. Because if you are moving, in a car for example, it keeps dropping out. I don’t have this problem with other streaming services, only this one. 2NUR is a great station but I would have thought that with all the brain power they have at the uni they could have a more stable app. ### 3/5 — Geoff *2026-03-31, version 28.0* I listen to your streaming when traveling. If I loose the signal when down in a gully, when signal returns I get the ads over and over again. It’s very annoying. I don’t recall having that in years gone by. ### 3/5 — Two and you are up review with VoiceOver *2025-01-20, version 25.5* I love the app. It is not easy to use with VoiceOver, if one wants to use the full functionality of the app. Very few buttons seem to be labelled. Keep up the updates. ### 3/5 — Awesome *2023-07-08, version 2.0* You can look at their programs as they have a program guide, you can listen to 2nurfm national and hunter news, plus sport traffic and weather updates. They have lifestyle programs such as Gardening, Talkback, Pet Chat, and talking travel. My favourite announcer is Greg Richard because most of the time he says the name and artist of the song that plays on air. He also has a kind and friendly voice that makes him very entertaining. Then you’ve got Todd Sergeant, Mark Rorke, Kev Kellaway, Coline, Ian Crouch the Hunter news reader, and others. They have lots of interesting music shows like: Bluesnight, Affected, Sunday Sunrise, The history of rock n roll, American top 40, Sunday country, the Muster, The awesome 80s, the sensational 70s, the 60s at 6, Classic folk Round these parts, All that Jazz, The Dungeon, Vinyl vibes, 12 o’clock rock the Saturday night party mix, the list brass encounters, Hunter-rostrum, the list goes on. Must listen. You can also catch up on some of their programs by going to 2nurfm.com.au, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or RSS feed. 2nurfm is a community radio station. The frequency is 103.7 in the full name, that’s 2nurfm 103.7 Thanks 2nur, Have a great day. Nick. ### 4/5 — New to Newy *2024-10-16, version 25.5* Moved here a few years ago to be near our family. Soon discovered 2NURFM and local ABC radio. Only need 2 stations for music or world news & current affairs. Keep up the good programming. ### 4/5 — Lurleen *2024-09-23, version 25.5* Love 2NUR radio never of the dial, Great music wonderful presenters .

Especially Todd’s Brekkie Show from 6-9 then Mark afterwards. Oh really all of them… music is excellent.. the talk back banter makes me laugh and news is concise & good reporting.
