2LF is a radio broadcaster based in Australia, catering to the Young area. It operates as a member of the Super Radio Network, alongside its affiliate station Roccy FM. The station commenced operations in February 1938.
The station's callsign, "LF," is derived from Lambing Flats. Transmitting on the AM band at 1350 kHz with an output power of 5 kilowatts, 2LF broadcasts at more than twice the strength of nearby stations such as 2WG Wagga Wagga, 2GN Goulburn, and 2PK Parkes, which each have a power rating of 2 kW. This elevated transmission power enables 2LF to effectively serve its primary audience in Young, as well as the surrounding communities of Cowra and Cootamundra.
Esteemed Australian media personalities including Ken Sutcliffe, Ray Warren, and Mike Connors launched their broadcasting careers at 2LF. In the late 1980s, the station expanded to a continuous 24-hour schedule. Before this change, broadcasts ended after the midnight news bulletin and recommenced with early morning test transmissions ahead of the 5:30 am news update. Following the shift to round-the-clock programming, 2LF aired simulcast content from its sister station 2WG Wagga Wagga under the combined brand 2WG/2LF. Overnight programming was supplied by Sydney's 2UW, which provided network content to approximately 80 stations across Australia.
