104.1 Territory FM is a community radio station[1] based in Darwin, Australia. Territory FM broadcasts a broad range of adult contemporary music from the Darwin City campus of Charles Darwin University.[2] News is provided by Nine News between 6:00am and 10:00pm. Territory FM also has a long-standing media agreement with the Nine Network, broadcasting Nine News Darwin bulletins every weeknight, as well as updates from their newsroom in the afternoons and weekend sport wraps.[3]
The station is broadcast on 104.1 FM in Darwin, Palmerston, and the surrounding areas. In 2004 to 2008 it could also be heard across the Northern Territory in Batchelor, Katherine, Tennant Creek, Nhulunbuy and Adelaide River.[4]
In 2016 the book Blazing A Trail on Darwin Airwaves – the first 35 years of FM 104.1 Darwin (1981–2016) was released, which documents Darwin's first community radio station and its history. Its introduction was written by long-time presenter Jih Seymour.
In 2019 Territory FM was added to the DAB services for Darwin and Palmerston. This service is a simulcast of its FM programming.
