Did you mean the Australian Broadcasting Corporation's radio station? See ABC Local Radio.

ABC Radio is a division of the American Broadcasting Company (ABC) focused on AM radio and FM radio broadcasting. The group is to be acquired by Forstmann Little & Company, and will be merged with their Citadel Broadcasting unit.

History

ABC began as the NBC Blue network in 1943, then renamed to the 'American Broadcasting Company' in 1945. The NBC Blue and NBC Red networks were both owned by RCA, but were forced to separate when the FCC declared them a monopoly in 1940.
