Deccan Radio was a community radio station in Hyderabad, India, operating on 107.8 MHz FM. The station was licensed to the Abid Ali Khan Educational Trust and broadcast a limited schedule of community programs.[1]

The station had evidently ceased regular broadcasting around 2015. During this time, a new community station, Radio Charminar, started on the frequency, transmitting from a site 3 kilometres (1.9 mi) away from Deccan. The result was a complaint from Charminar, which claimed Deccan's broadcasts and consequent interference made advertisers hesitant to purchase air time on the other station.[2]
