The PO Box address is also now different to Macquarie’s. > > Studios are still listed at being in Macquarie’s building. I assume this is a stepping stone to setting up their own dedicate office and studios. Interesting, because if you look up 2CH Pty. Ltd. & EON 2CH Pty. Ltd, both are registered with ASIC at Belrose & have been for some time. I figured they would be moving the office & studios to there? I’ve had a look at the building (only from the outside) where the ASIC registration is, & it’d be a fantastic site for the new 2CH studios. ---

When the studio move eventually happens, I wonder if 2CH will continue running Macquarie National News or sever all ties with MRN by running another network’s news service (the return of a 2CH-specific news would be even better, but I can’t see that happening in this day and age)? ---

That’s probably the only reason. I’d think that a move to Belrose would be unlikely. EON Broadcasting (Sunshine Coast stations) and Crimsafe (Oceania’s main investment) are also registered at the same address despite having no operations based there. ---

News is quite expensive - just ask MML - and I couldn’t imagine a dedicated 2CH news service would be part of their business model. ---

> [@thesub1](#): > > I couldn’t imagine a dedicated 2CH news service would be part of their business model. I agree. At most they’d have a single journalist/newsreader in breakfast (and maybe one for driving too if they were really keen) who would source some stories, but largely just read out the news that MML provides with a different emphasis designed for their market. SEN in Melbourne used to do this (they stopped doing it last year, but not sure if that’s still the case) in Breakfast - although in their situation it was also because they wanted a stronger focus on sport. ---

Moving studios is not as easy as it might be thought. Weigh up the cost of new construction costs against current leasing arrangements. As for the news, it was long considered credible to have a quality news service such as 2UE or 2GB on your station. 2CH audience would like the 2GB news and would be used to it. ---

I don’t know how long this has been on air for, but Johnny Young is hosting a night time program on 2CH, “Nightmoves” [http://www.2ch.com.au/shows/johnny-young/](http://www.2ch.com.au/shows/johnny-young/) I thought he was still at 6IX Perth (their website is down at the moment, so not able to check), or maybe it’s pre-recorded from there? If so, also that 6IX is owned by Capital Radio, so have EON Radio outsourced the program? ---

Wheatley, Williams and Brice should know this. Perhaps focusing more on the 60s and 70s music that the FM stations in Sydney (which are increasingly sticking to the music no older than the 1980s) don’t have on their regular playlist would be a good idea for 2CH? A bit more external advertising (something you very rarely see for 2CH) probably wouldn’t be a bad idea either. ---
