Army station Garrison Radio has launched a new iPhone app to help link soldiers with the studios that broadcast to their bases.
The free smartphone application allows listeners to send requests and answer competition questions with a simple form to fill in.
It also streams audio from Garrison's stations around the UK and includes the latest army news too.
Founder and Managing Director of Garrison Radio, Mark Page, told us: "Although not everyone has a high-tech phone yet, this is certainly the future for forces broadcasting. To send requests the user can even select a track from their own device, and the artist and title details will be filled in automatically. Plus it's a great way for us to get essential information out to listeners, we've already got army news headlines available throughout the day, and this is just the beginning!"
