History edit
South radio was created in 1982 in the French city of Besançon for the Algerian community. Hamid Hakkar wanted to establish a radio station in the area of Chaprais because no one administrative and cultural equipment existed in the neighborhood. The first broadcast was on 3 January 1983 and the radio was recognized officially by the Conseil supérieur de l'audiovisuel in 1985. After its success, the local being too small, the radio moved to Saint-Claude area in 1995 then in Planoise as far as today.
