Arrow FM 92.7FM

Arrow FM 92.7FM Turn on, tune in, trip out! Arrow FM, 92.7FM is your community access radio station, broadcasting 24/7 from our natty little studio in Masterton!

Although we've only been transmitting 24/7 since August 2000, our first Arrow was shot into the air on the 2nd of March 1986. Jan McLaren directed this initial volley, a multi-pronged flurry of sharp-tipped satire, finely-fletched frankness, keenly-aimed commentary, and sweetly-flighted melody. Okay - metaphor over now! A true Access station from the word GO, Arrow presented programmes on organics

, poetry, local news and issues, storytelling and cats; and represented groups as diverse as the Rape Crisis Centre, Trade Aid, the Library, Film Society and local Schools. With the support of national and local grant bodies and sponsors, Arrow has expanded its range of programmes and hours of broadcasting (from an initial 3 hours a week to the current non-stop operation). Broadcasters (and managers) have come and gone, but the spirit of community access broadcasting has been faithfully maintained. Arrow FM is dedicated to providing a wide range of minority programmes to the diverse peoples of Wairarapa.

📻 On this week’s episode, Mark takes us through some remarkable moments from our region’s past — the Polio outbreak of 1924, the snowstorm of 1918, and the Parker’s United Realty fire of 1995.

But don’t worry — as we head toward Christmas, Mark has promised to sprinkle in some lighter, joyful stories to lift the mood and celebrate the season. ⭐️🎄

In the latest episode of Energise Yourself, the Wilson whānau opened up about the huge role sport plays in their lives and the positive impact it has on their wellbeing. From staying active and connected to building confidence and resilience, their kōrero is a beautiful reminder of how sport can bring whānau together and keep us grounded.
