Motsweding FM is an SABC radio station based in Mahikeng, South Africa, broadcasting mainly in the Tswana language. Formerly known as Radio Tswana, the country-wide broadcast station evolved from a Bophuthatswana Broadcasting Corporation, which had been operating from Mmabatho in the former Bophuthatswana homeland.

Motsweding FM plays a wide variety of music, to help increase listenership throughout South Africa's dynamic cultures. At any time, a mixture of hip-hop/pop/soft rock can be mixed with house music followed by Simphiwe Dana or Madonna and ending with Freshlyground or Mo'Molemi.
