Extended coverage provides reception in the southern part of the Mitchell Shire, in particular to the suburbs of Donnybrook and Beveridge, along the Hume Highway, north of Craigieburn.
The nature of the station - being an open membership and participation driven community broadcast - provides for a mixture of music genre, spoken word topics, local sport and ethnic (non-English) languages.
A variety of religious programs are also present, considering the vast mix of immigrants from many parts of the world resident in the North Western region of Melbourne.
[2] North West FM is upgrading and re-locating its transmitter (and associated equipment) as well as increasing the output power of the transmitted signal.
The station's website says the changes will enable a stronger signal to better service the nominated licence area.
