History
2AY Albury was started by AWA Limited, and opened on 17 December 1930.[1]
In 2005, 2AY and sister station 104.9 Star FM were purchased by DMG Radio Australia.[3] Later in 2005, Macquarie Regional RadioWorks, through its purchase of most DMG Radio Australia's regional assets, owned 2AY, Star FM, and former cross-town rival 105.7 The River. Due to cross media ownership laws limiting the number of radio stations owned by one company in a market to two, Macquarie was required to sell one station.[4] 2AY was sold in September to Ace Radio.[5] Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'strict' not found.
