Presumably without voicetracks?
I’m not sure about DAB but SEN still running on 1377AM. I doubt we’ll hear 3MP launch earlier than 6pm tomorrow (unlike Magic/2UE/4BH earlier this year)
DAB+ is still doing that loop

Nope, Cathy doing a voicetrack right now. Presumably just for testing.
A traffic report just aired now
Yep, tail was still SEN Track - presumably 3MP is going to take ATN traffic and Nine News

Is this new info?
Caught most of the 5pm hour before the webstream went down. Not included in this clip, but the stream included the 3AW bulletin on the hour.

Yes, Melbourne info is new.
Interesting to see that both day announcers are female - I suspect not a coincidence and possibly quite a clever differentiation from Smooth.
From everything I see, they’re being smart on a limited budget.

They seem to be pushing the Mornington Peninsula angle. Wonder if that’s an attempt to target a forgotten audience? Especially a growing area.

Quite an emphasis there on the Mornington Peninsula, good to hear.
oh my god. I know that was the most listened duo when i was at school and i lived on boundary of Melbourne and Gippsland
Would be a killer duo in Melbourne…surprised this did not happen 20 years ago.

3mp in early days had alot advertisting dollar from South east suburbs right thru to the peninsula.
disapointing that it did move from Frankston to melbourne as i feel it could of been a good partnership to have a dipoma of broadcasting like at Homesglen Tafe.

Sounds a hundred times better than automated Magic.

Generally voice tracking announcements stick out like a sore thumb but that test broadcast sounded really good

They rarely break news, so it probably won’t be mentioned until there’s a press release.

Great that 3MP is back, loving the music during the test. They get marked down for not using this logo. 8/10
