River 94.9

River 94.9 is a commercial radio station, that broadcasts to South-East Queensland. The station opened in February 1990, and was formerly known as Star 106.9, which used to operate on the frequency now occupied by Nova 106.9. The station was previously owned by Rural Press & Bundaberg Broadcasters, forming part of the Star Broadcasting Network. It was sold to Grant Broadcasters in May 2008, by Fairfax Media due to diversity rules controlled by Australian Communications and Media Authority, which prevents more than 2 licences overlapping into a market owned by the same group.

The original programming of the station was a contemporary hit music format, with specialist programming including 'Wild Nights', a format licenced from former community radio station Wild FM. In late 2003, after changes in administration, the station took on a more Adult Contemporary focus, and positioned themselves playing "The Biggest Variety of Hits from the 70s, 80s, 90s and whatever", and implemented a 'No Repeat Workday'.

River 94.9 is currently the only radio station broadcasting into the Brisbane radio market, to be using dynamic RDS (Radio Data System). Dynamic on-screen data displayed on compatible radios, includes the station's name, slogan and title and artist of currently playing song.

In 2008, River 94.9 was the official broadcaster for South-East Queensland, of the Macquarie Radio Network's Olympic Radio Coverage.
