The station is named after Foveaux Strait which runs between the South Island of New Zealand and Stewart Island. The station was originally started by a group of investors as 4XF Foveaux Radio broadcasting on 1224 AM. In the late eighties the station was sold to Radio Otago and in 1991 Foveaux made the switch to FM when it began broadcasting on 89.2 FM and retained the AM frequency. In October 2018, with trademark now owned by an Invercargill resident, Foveaux Radio began broadcast licensing tests over Invercargill City on 104.4 FM. The station is an affiliate of the syndicated Pink Floyd program "Floydian Slip". FormatFoveaux FM played a mixture the latest hits as well as older music, the station also ran several talk shows such as Talkback with John Husband on weekday mornings and a sports talk show on Sunday mornings called Sports Comment and Opinion. Evening programming catered to a younger audience with the station running a Top 9 at 9 countdown show. The Foveaux FM night show, during the late nineties, was also simulcast on Resort Radio in Queenstown. Foveaux was always a live and local station 24 hours a day however some specialist nationwide shows were played on the station over the years these included:
CompetitionThe stations main competitor was 4ZA which is now known as The Hits Southland. Another local competitor was Hokonui Gold which broadcasts from Gore but both stations can be clearly heard across most of Southland. In response to changes in the local and New Zealand radio market, Foveaux FM moved many of their talk related shows to the AM frequency in the late 1990s these shows were later dropped. The station also moved away from targeting the younger audience in the early 2000s, The Top 9 at 9 was replaced by The Eighties at 8. Studio LocationThe Foveaux FM studios were located on the corner or Tay and Kelvin street in Invercargill on the second floor of a building previously used as a hotel, which was known as the Cecil Hotel. The first floor of the building has always been used for retail stores. Today, MORE FM Southland continues to broadcast local shows from this building and the building has also been used to produce shows for other radio stations such as a nationwide breakfast show on Radio LIVE presented by Marcus Lush (up until 2014) and The Breeze in Southland ran a local voice tracked show between 2007 and 2009. Rebranding to MORE FMFoveaux FM was owned by Radio Otago up until 1999. Radio Otago merged with Energy Enterprises in 1999 to form RadioWorks. In November 2004 Canwest RadioWorks decided to rebrand many of their local heritage stations with the well known More FM brand name and then on 15 January 2005 Foveaux FM became Southlands 89.2 More FM. The change also saw the station reduced to 13 hours a day of local programming when More FM introduced a networked night show and overnight show. In October 2007 the original Foveaux Radio 1224AM frequency that had been continued to be used for the rebranded More FM station was reassigned to BSport. While BSport was launched as a rebranding of Radio Pacific the old Radio Pacific frequency was used to launch The Breeze into Southland. Local programming on the rebranded MORE FM station has been reduced over the years. Today the breakfast show, hosted by Gretchen Blomfield and Simon Edwards, is the only regular local show. The station will run some local shows at weekends and the daytime show presented from Auckland does contain some local content. Announcers{{Original research|section|date=October 2016}}
