South Carolina Public Radio (SCPR) is the National Public Radio member network serving the state of South Carolina. It is licensed to the South Carolina Educational Television Commission, an agency of South Carolina state government. It is a sister network to South Carolina Educational Television.

The radio network's primary operations and Public Information Files are located on George Rogers Boulevard in Columbia, near Williams-Brice Stadium.

The network's 8 transmitters at 100 kW (5) and 30 kW (3) provide at least secondary coverage to nearly all of South Carolina, with portions of North Carolina and Georgia.

The S.C. Educational Television Commission had its mission broadened to include FM radio in the late 1960s. In 1972, WEPR in Clemson (now in Greenville) signed on the air as the state's first public radio station. 7 more transmitters signed on in the 1970s and 1980s.

Until 2001, the stations were known as the South Carolina Educational Radio Network (SCERN), airing a mix of classical music, NPR news and locally produced programs. However, since much of the state receives grade B coverage from at least two transmitters, ETV management opted to split transmitters into two programming networks. Four stations continued to air a mix of classical music and NPR programming, while three aired an expanded schedule of NPR news and talk. The 8th station, WNSC-FM in Rock Hill, began airing exclusively jazz music in order to avoid programming duplication with WFAE and WDAV in Charlotte.

In 2003, SCERN rebranded as "ETV Radio" in order to link the radio stations more closely with public awareness of South Carolina ETV.

In 2009, ETV Radio began streaming online the Classical and News networks.

In 2011, listeners gave $1.5 million in donations toward the construction of a new studio facility, which opened in April 2013.
