📋 About This Mod

Detour Radio

Adds a new radio station with over 110 songs from the Golden Age of Music. All lore friendly tracks. This is just continuous music with no DJ or commercials added. A craftable radio is available in the workshop so your settlers can enjoy as well. The new station uses radio frequency 87. 0 and will conflict with any other radio mods using the same frequency. XBOX and PC versions also available at Bethesdas site.

I hope you enjoy.

This is my first time uploading one of my other mods to Nexus. Please let me know if it isn't working so I can attempt to fix it. Currently, it's working fine on Bethesdas site on both PC and Xbone (PS4 not available for obvious reasons).
