Description
A commercial entertainment station for Antigua and Barbuda, branded VibzFM HD under the tagline "Radio U Can C". Its own advertising page calls it "Antigua's #1 entertainment radio station", states that it has been on air fourteen years, that it covers "95 percent of Antigua and Barbuda", and that it targets listeners aged 18 to 25 and 26 to 49. It is operated by Family FM Ltd.

Kind
Continuous Shoutcast output with no published schedule and no track metadata. I could not establish from operator material whether it is live, voicetracked or automated, and I do not guess.

Worth knowing
This row had no homepage and is now bound by hard evidence from the station's own stream, whose icy-name is "VibzFM HD 92.9" and whose icy-url is its operator's domain familyfm.ltd. That single header pair confirms the brand, the frequency and the operator in one step, and led to the operator site at vibzfm.familyfm.ltd.

Programmes
none. Its own On-Air page carries no schedule, only a player and social links, and no other page on the site publishes airtimes.

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.

reasoning usually states it

This row had no homepage. The station's own stream at https://testvibz-silcomwireless.radioca.st/stream.mp3 returns icy-name 'VibzFM HD 92.9' and icy-url 'familyfm.ltd', which names both the station and its operator, Family FM Ltd. That domain resolves and serves the station's own site, which returns HTTP 200 with no redirect and carries its own advertising page describing 'Antigua's #1 entertainment radio station' on 92.9 FM covering '95 percent of Antigua and Barbuda', its own contact page, and its own music submission form. The site shows a 'Site Under Maintenance' notice and an unpopulated On-Air page, so it is a neglected site rather than a rich one, but it is unambiguously the operator's own and is bound to this row by the stream headers. |

English. Every page of the station's own site at vibzfm.familyfm.ltd is in English, including its advertising page, its contact page and its On-Air page, and its stream declares icy-genre 'Mixed' with no language marker. The station broadcasts from St. John's, Antigua and Barbuda. I checked specifically for a Creole strand or any non-English programme title and found none published anywhere on the operator's own pages. I have set this from the operator's own pages, not from a hosting platform's lang metadata field. |
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 |
|---|---|
| A finding that the station is automated | its contact form, music submission form, operator-domain email, telephone number on the correct country code and postal address are all real and consistent, so the missing schedule reads as a neglected website rather than evidence of a machine, and I will not classify it on an absence that has an innocent explanation.
source |
| The "Site Under Maintenance" banner and an embedded Instagram feed whose newest item is dated 2020 | stale site furniture, not facts about the broadcast.
source |
| The word "test" in its stream host name testvibz-silcomwireless.radioca.st | that is the hosting account label, and the mount is the live production one, since it names the station correctly and carries the operator's domain in icy-url.
source |
| A street address and a school building named on its own advertising page as its location | I record the city only and do not copy addresses into this file.

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
current as at 2026.
