Trying to get any ABC local radio or national stream to play on a phone or tablet can be tricky and it’s a bit hard to find sometimes.

Here is an ABC help desk page thqt lists a direct URL to just about any ABC Local or National station stream you could want.

Clicking any link should get it to play right in your phone or tablets browser.  It might want to download a playlist file on a PC, but it’ll load directly to the stream and not a website where you have to go hunting for the stream. 

The streams are between 24K and 48K so they don’t use a lot of bandwith
