About This Station

242 Radio is a UK-based music station that brands itself as “More Than Just A Number,” promising “music that you only dream nowadays of hearing.” Its schedule is presenter-led and spans a broad range of genres, including soul, rock, pop, folk, blues, love songs, and decades-based shows from the ’60s to the ’80s. Highlights from the weekly line-up include *The Dave Ellis Soul Show*, *Digital Blues*, *The Folk and Roll Show*, *Guilty Pleasure*, *The L.A. Connection* with Emperor Rosko, and *Heritage Chart* with Mike Read. The station broadcasts in English and appears to be built around specialist music programmes rather than news or talk content.
