The telecast stopped at the end of 2019, for what reason I don’t remember.

I also remember there was a two-week pause in February 2018 because of the Olympics rights (which Seven had the broadcasting rights to at the time).

I wish they’d keep simulcasting the news. The reason it likely stopped is because you’d need someone to panel live at that time.

2OOO 98.5 Sydney is now back on air, after about a month with no FM signal.

It was Seven News, would’ve been around 2012.

Not if you automate off the same feed as the affiliates do, they just get SMPTE signals or can even use a carrier tone on another audio channel to trigger an automation to trigger the local playlist when the tone dies out or vice versa

So what are they going to replace it with? Air News? Nine News? No news?

Believe Vision News is still going, have heard that on a few Christian community stations around the traps.

Well at least the transmitter hasn’t died; there’s still a Pulse. No CPR required.

Another one that’s often open carrier is 2RPH Wollongong 93.3. It’s dead air right now, as received on my South/West TEF servers.

Edit: There sound for one second, then it went back to open carrier again.
