Hills AM is the Otago Community Access Radio station which has existed since 1990. There are three full-time staff, and the rest of the work, including continuity voice breaks, is done by volunteers.
Two half hour programmes:
Tk 1, OFF THE PLANET, a monthly programme produced by the Otago Astronomical Society.
Presented by Mike Hamblin and Chris Ford. Covers Society news, what's in the night sky above Dunedin, book reviews, an interview with Dr David Duval from the University of Otago's Tourism Department talking about space tourism; satellite news, listener letters and the odd music track. Broadcast date not known.
Tk 2, NUTRITION MOOD, monthly programme produced by the Southern branch of the NZ Dietetic Association. Presented by Penny Field from the Nutrition Department of Otago University who discusses with three of her colleagues the role of the dietician, good food, dietary trends and research. Some music. Broadcast date not known.
