Radio 5RPH (1197 kHz) is a volunteer operated AM band community radio station in Adelaide, South Australia, providing a radio reading service for the vision-impaired and otherwise print handicapped.[1]

Originally owned by association RPH Adelaide Inc., 5RPH has operated as a subsidiary of Vision Australia Radio since December 2011,[2] combining readings by local volunteers of South Australian media with programs from VA Radio's sister stations, such as 3RPH from Melbourne.

Radio 5RPH is a member of the Radio Print Handicapped Network. Its stated mission is to "provide a quality reading and information service to those within its broadcast area who are unable (for whatever reason) to access daily printed material".[3][4]

Newspapers, magazines, books, and other printed material are read to air. The station also hosts a morning sports show weekday mornings and has previously[when?] broadcast matches from the South Australian National Football League.
