ABC Local Radio

So… with ABC Classic FM to be re-branded as ABC Classic soon, is this a sign they’re preparing to dump it from FM in the capital cities (except Darwin of course) and swap local radio over to FM from AM?

Was also discussed a few days ago

Is it telling that they don’t have “FM” as part of the logo. Maybe a coincidence but just saying… A lot of speculation they’ll be moving online and DAB only with ABC Local potentially moving to FM…

But I think as others have said it’s probably more to cover the “Classic” brand across different platforms. “FM” branding is largely redundant now.

Perhaps, but it’ll make it much easier if they do decide to ditch Classic on FM. I think that’s just the convenient spin they’ve put on it re the “different platforms”. That’s exactly what the press releases will say if they axe it on FM, they’ll say “it’s still available on other platforms”
