Not including the Edge FM stations because they don’t carry SCA programming. Although you never know… it could happen.
SCA would have to acquire all of the ACE Radio stations first, then they can turn them into SCA O&O stations.
What happened? Did SCA buy ACE’s regional stations?
No, not yet, but they might in the future. This is just a rough idea of what the ACE Radio stations would be officially known as, if SCA ever chose to acquire the stations on top of launching these stations on LiSTNR. I have a really good feeling that this will eventually happen. If they can do it with the MediaWorks stations, they can certainly also do it with the ACE Radio FM networks (excluding 3YB FM 94.5 Warrnambool).
The AM stations that ACE Radio owns wouldn’t become Triple M stations because they carry 3AW and SEN programming whenever local programming is off-air.
Bit strange to suggest SCA would re-format the Ace FM stations but not the AM ones.
ACE Radio would need to end their deals with 3AW and SEN before SCA can even acquire them and turn them into Triple M stations, which would also include 3YB FM 94.5 in Warrnambool, as that station plays a lot of Classic Hits mixed in with some fresh ones. 3YB were on 882 AM before they swapped frequencies with Vision Australia Radio.
Not necessarily - Triple M Wagga, Griffith and Toowoomba are all on AM, and all take Ray Hadley in mornings. I agree though that it would be a strange fit, especially since Tom Elliott etc. hardly have the same pull in regional Victoria that Hadley does in the aforementioned NSW markets.
Also of note is that Triple M Shepparton used to take Crocmedia’s AFL coverage (plus Sportsday and Off The Bench) back when they were the master rights holder for the AFL
Whilst i by and large like what is offered. Some if the advertising can be rather monotonous. I never want to hear about Australian Caravan Centre
There has been revamp of the LiSTNR website overnight that has made the website somewhat more usable with followed stations now listed in the sidebar, but it has logged out all users

Hectic interference on LISTNR tonight. Triple M and Hit stations suffering from static. Terrible to listen to.
Just the Brisbane stations?
