I received the audio on 91.75 on what is now a vintage pioneer hifi, now deceased with a wire fm antenna mounted 91.75 NBN audio carrier was a permanent signal, and one day when Kix 106 was very strong with tropo 91.75 was not NBN but ABC 3 audio carrier Canberra.

Mix 106.3, Canberra’s Triple M station, is taking on the KIIS Network look from 2020.

To make the transition easier, www.mix106.com.au has been given a facelift to be in line with remaining KIIS Network station websites. Well overdue. ---

Has been like this for a few months at least, but definitely a delayed roll-out from the rest of the ARN websites (the Pure Gold and Edge sites use the same template) ---

> [@FineTuned](#): > > Almost like when FM104.7 had a Today Network logo, and had a rock format (10 years after the rest of the Today Network had dropped a rock format). Yes, I remember that whenever I was down in Canberra back in the late 90s & early-mid 00s. It was a bugbear for young radio listeners there for those who would prefer to listen to CHR during the day, in which they would have to tune to fortuitous reception of Eagle FM from Goulburn or Snow FM from Cooma, and also FM93 (later Star FM, now hit93.1) from Wagga, particularly before Eagle came on-air in January 1997. Nowadays, Canberra has two CHR stations: hit104.7 on FM/DAB+ & Snow Digital on DAB+. ---

I remember reading that in the early days KIX106 was outrating FM104, had that trend continued, we could have easily had MIX104.7 and Hit106.3 now. ---

This was when FM104.7 (& 2CA) was changing ownership from the Macquarie Network to Austereo. KIX 106 outrating FM104.7 only lasted for one survey, and that point on, FM104.7 continually outrated KIX for many years to come. ---
