Judaïques FM
Jewish radio station in Paris / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Judaïques FM ([ʒy.da.ik ɛf ɛm], "Jewish FM") was a radio station in Paris, France. It broadcast on 94.8 MHz as part of a four-way shared-time arrangement, consisting entirely of Jewish radio stations, between 1981 and 2020. While technically still a separate station with a separate authorization to broadcast, in 2020, it combined for branding and ratings purposes with Radio J, one of the other three stations on the frequency, with all of its programming and personalities being maintained. The stations had been under connected management since 2018.

Within the four-station ensemble, Judaïques FM was intended as the most politically independent of the set[2] and emphasized a multicultural viewpoint.[3] It called itself la radio du judaïsme français ("the radio station of French Judaism").[4] Historically, it was also one of the smallest stations in terms of resources. For more than a decade, Radio Communauté, renamed RCJ in 1992, handled many of the management functions of Judaïques FM in exchange for most of its allotted air time.
