History
Established by AWA, 2AY Albury commenced its transmissions on 17 December 1930. In 2005, ownership shifted when DMG Radio Australia acquired both 2AY and its sister station 104.9 Star FM. Later that same year, Macquarie Regional RadioWorks took over the majority of DMG Radio Australia's regional holdings, which included 2AY, Star FM, and competitor station 105.7 The River. Due to regulations restricting the number of stations a single entity could own within a market, Macquarie divested 2AY in September 2005, selling it to Ace Radio.
