Description
ON Sport FM is Egypt's first privately run all-sport radio station, launched in September 2018 on 93.7 FM from Giza. It is owned by the National Media Authority and operated by United Media Services, and it took over a frequency that had been carrying a general entertainment service under the name drn. The schedule is given over to football talk in Egyptian Arabic, with match analysis, commentary, studio panels and listener calls covering the domestic league and the big European competitions. There is no music format to speak of.

Contact route
none found; the site is one hand-written index.html holding a programme-poster carousel, a clock and an empty form element that its own script.js fills with the audio player, and it publishes no mailbox, telephone, WhatsApp, form or social link at all. I read index.html in full plus css/style.css and js/script.js and grepped all three for mail, tel, WhatsApp and social patterns; robots.txt, sitemap.xml, contact.html, contact-us.html, about.html and an invented path each return 404 with an identical 355-byte body, so index.html is the entire site and there is no footer anywhere to carry a route

What we corrected
Each of these changed a field in our own entry. The reasoning is the researcher's own, recorded when the change was made.
| Field | Change | Why |
|---|---|---|
| title |
ON Sport FM
what it said before was not recorded; the
reasoning usually states it
|
The stored title pluralises Sport and mis-cases the name. The station's own site titles itself ON SPORT FM, and the station is known as ON Sport FM. |
| homepage url |
https://www.onsportfm.com/
what it said before was not recorded; the
reasoning usually states it
|
The stored URL is http. https returns 200 on the same domain and http now redirects to it, so the stored address is simply the older one. Worth recording separately: the site publishes no schedule at all. Three programme blocks with presenters and airtimes do exist in the page source, but every one of them sits inside an HTML comment, so nothing is rendered and nothing was taken. That is the second time a lineup has been found commented out rather than published. |
| language code |
ar
what it said before was not recorded; the
reasoning usually states it
|
No language was stored. The station's own site at onsportfm.com is in Arabic throughout, and the station broadcasts sports talk in Egyptian Arabic from Giza. |
What we found and did not publish
Material that would have made this page fuller, and was refused. A page with five named presenters looks better than a page with none even when the five are a website theme's demonstration content, and the difference is invisible to a reader. So it is recorded here instead.
| What we could have said | Why we did not |
|---|---|
| Three programme blocks with presenters and airtimes: One Two with Seif Zaher and Hazem Emam, Al Hareef with Walid Salah El Din, Al Failasouf with Ayman Younes. | Every one of them is inside an HTML comment in the page source, so none of it is published. The only thing the page actually renders is the station name, a clock and an image carousel. If it is commented out, the station is not saying it.

If you think something here is wrong
Tell us which fact and what you found instead. Everything above names its source and its date, so a disagreement can be settled by looking rather than argued. Where another site disagrees with us, it is usually because it is repeating a radio directory, and occasionally because we got it wrong. We would like to know which.
Read from the station's own material; this page is generated from the
catalogue as it stands now, so it changes when the research does. Research
