Volunteers from the George Town broadcaster will spend the next few weeks moving and installing kilometres of cabling and audio equipment at its new Macquarie Street home.

The radio station was given the green light to relocate to the former George Town library, which was left vacant after the construction of the $6 million George Town Hub.

Tamar FM president Kevin Ellis said the lease would be effective from July 1.

He said the move presented exciting opportunities for increased interaction with listeners.

He said it also allowed the station to create a display of Tamar FM's history.

"This is a wonderful opportunity for the station," Mr Ellis said.

"It will be more accessible to the public - they can actually come in and see the live, on-air show through glass.

"It's great for schools because they can come down and cover all the different areas.

"We're also looking to outdoor broadcasting."

Tamar FM first went to broadcast in 2003.

It can be heard at as far afield as Mowbray, Scottsdale, Westbury and Devonport.

Its future was assured in 2014 thanks to a $20,000 state government grant.

Mr Ellis said the relocation was another lifeline.

"If we hadn't have got this, somewhere down the track we probably wouldn't have existed," he said.

"We're very stable going into the future."

Mr Ellis said the radio station move was possible due to the effort of the George Town community.

He particularly thanked volunteers and the George Town Council for their dedication.
