Kovsie FM 97.0 is a campus/community radio station in Bloemfontein, South Africa. The station is located on the grounds of the University of the Free State.
Kovsie FM was founded in 1978 by a group of students, and broadcast only inside the cafeteria. In 1995 it was granted a license by the IBA, now called ICASA (Independent Communications Authority of South Africa) granting Kovsie FM a broadcasting license on the frequency 97.0 FM.
Kovsie FM 97.0 broadcasts in English, Afrikaans and Sotho, and our focus is on the youth between the ages of 15–35. Our mission includes community involvement, training and development, being a platform for local musicians, providing an accurate, unbiased news service, and sustainability.
