Description

SURG is the Student Radio group at the University of Sydney.

Our history spans back to the 1920s. We have been on campus through test broadcasts under the name 2UX Union Radio in 1976, through the creation of 2SER as a founding member in 1977, as well as providing studio space for both Radio Skid Row and FBi Radio.

SURG began broadcasting online in 2012 with a 4-week temporary broadcast during Verge Festival. As of 2016, SURG broadcasts 12 hours a day, 5 days a week, 26 weeks of the year from a studio in USyd's Holme Building.
