History

The station was established as Radio Corse Frequenza Mora (RCFM) in 1984, 2 years after the appearance of the first regional programs on the local France Inter station. On 4 September 2000 RCFM became connected to the new France Bleu network.

In November 2015, a second studio was added at Place du Donjon, in Bastia, alongside the original one located in Residence du Parc (Ajaccio).

On 1 January 2016 the AM radio section was shut off, one of the last in Europe.[3]
