Mojave Music Radio is a radio station in Fallout: New Vegas.
Characteristics[]
Mojave Music Radio only plays music, which consists mostly of country/western and rockabilly (some of which were actually performed and written by contemporary 21st-century musicians), with no DJ or news segments. The music played is the same as the music on Black Mountain Radio, but without the station's talk segments with Tabitha. It is unknown where the broadcast is coming from, yet its signal covers the entire Mojave.

Behind the scenes[]
- The "origin" of Mojave Music Radio is in Vault 11; specifically, there is a Talking Activator (a type of non-NPC and non-creature object which can have dialogue) in the form of terminal hidden under the cave floor just inside the Vault 11 cell (only visible with tcl), which is used to vocalize all of the radio's dialogue and music. The Talking Activator for Radio New Vegas is next to it.
- According to Joshua Sawyer, the music tracks in Fallout: New Vegas were split between Radio New Vegas and Mojave Music Radio/Black Mountain Radio (specifically keeping country music off of Radio New Vegas) to accommodate people who might otherwise "go berserk" at the idea of listening to country music.[Non-game 1]

Joshua Sawyer: Some people go berserk over listening to country music, so I separated the songs across stations.
