History

2BE began test broadcasting in February 1937.[2] The station was officially opened on 30 September 1937.[1]

Frequencies

Programming

The station airs an adult contemporary format, playing the South Coast's widest variety of music. 2EC primarily targets 35- to 54-year-olds.

In contrast to many radio stations in regional Australia, 2EC airs very little networked programming. A strong focus is on the community, with segments such as Lost and Found, Job file and Community Contact featured throughout the day. Discussions about local events and issues are held regularly, with strong local news heard most hours.

The 2EC morning show often speaks to key local people such as Bega MP Andrew Constance.

The radio station has a very local feel, which is also incorporated with their websites, www.2ec.com.au and www.guidetofarsouthcoast.com.au
