The program is organized with the mix of self-produced programs and various programs produced by other broadcasters including prefectural broadcasters （ MBC and Kagoshima broadcasting operated in the mainland ） and community FM broadcasters （ FM Amami, FM Setouchi, and FM Tastsugo in Amami island, Rainbow FM in Tokyo city ） . Even though this mixed programming is quite rare com-pared to the programming of community FM broadcasting in general, it could help for small-scaled community FM broadcaster to program for long period of time. FM Setouchi and FM Tastsugo have kept FM Uken’s style in their programming for broadcasting. Because of this mixed programming, the research questions were raised in this study: 1） how listeners of FM Uken would listen to the mixed program, 2） how listeners of FM Uken would feel FM Uken in everyday life, and 3） what kind of the meaning to the local community FM Uken would be.
