RB 2 caters for an audience ranging in age from 15 to 45 years comprising mainly urban and suburban dwellers. The radio station features contemporary entertainment appealing especially to the younger members of society and young urban professionals.

RB 2 also carries the full Radio Botswana news bulletins at 6 a.m., 7 a.m., 1 p.m., 6 p.m., 8 p.m. and 9 p.m. every weekday. Bulletins are also available during weekends. Unlike its sister channel RB 2 broadcasts around the clock.

As a commercial channel, it generates some revenue of its own. As a result, it provides recording facilities for commercials, and accepts sponsored programming which may be done either from the studio or on location using an Outside Broadcast Van.
