AIS Radio can be heard via the Second Audio Program (SAP) of KTVU Television Channel 2 (Sound Carrier 59.75 MHz) and on the internet. Check out AIS Radio (MP3 Stream - 32kbps) and visit the AIS Radio Audio Archive. The archive contains previously broadcast programs. You will be able to listen to these programs using an MP3 player such as Windows Media Player, Winamp, QuickTime or iTunes.

If you own a stereo television or VCR with SAP capability, consult your owner's manual or a customer service representative at your local electronics store to determine how to set this audio feature.

The Internet stream is MP3 (32kbps). In order to listen via your computer, you must have a media player that supports MP3. Winmp, Windows Media, RealPlayer, QuickTime, etc. all support MP3 though you may have to configure your device preferences. If you are a PC user and haven't installed a third party media player, then you are likely using the default Windows Media Player. If you experience any difficulty receiving AIS Radio, you may need to update or install the latest version of Windows Media Player. Download Player 11 for Windows XP. However, because new versions of software have a tendency to break access technology like screen readers, you may find previous versions of Windows Media Player work better.
