Seven Regional

Still no changes to the channel name here. GWN7 on satellite and terrestrial.

Vale GWN - 1986 to 2022.

Good memories of when they were a composite network with independent branding, taking programming from all three commercial stations with a comprehensive one hour news bulletin and some local programming. Their master control was as good as a metropolitan station at their peak in the 80’s and 90’s.

gwn7.com.au now redirects to 7regionalwa.com.au

Probably easier as they would have been designed as separate sites. I can’t imagine either 7regional.com.au or 7regionalwa.com.au will be around for very long.

That doesn’t surprise me… Big Dog’s Goodnight on Nine Nth NSW still has the NBN logo on it.

Does anyone know if the “What’s On?” segments still air of an afternoon?

No. Haven’t seen one for a while.

Thank fuck for that…

Wikipedia is just an absolute mess now. Where do you even begin with a change like this? Seven has no official name for their newly acquired Prime/GWN network other than the websites “7regional” and “7regionalwa”. This doesn’t imply they are internally separate entities or anything, they’re just a website name change which will no doubt be temporary. SCA also doesn’t have an internal name for their Seven affiliate network, yet Wiki user(s) have coined “7 Regional” for them too.

Really, the GWN7 article should have just been renamed GWN and treated like every other station callsign article (CBN, SES, etc) instead of all this false naming.

It’s a lot of work and it’s no wonder most just give up and let the little kids edit it, making mock ‘7 Regional’ logos and writing lots and lots of assumptions about naming and availability.

Because it’s really sunshine television that was bought by the 7 network years ago. Sunshine television and prime / gwn are 2 completely different television networks owned by the 7 network

Sunshine Television wasn’t a network, it was/is a single TV station with many local relays/feeds.

Prime was/is a collection of 4 separate stations into a regional network: NNSW, SNSW/ACT, RVIC and Mildura. GWN is similar, but to a lesser extent.
