Sorry for the late reply, but back in the 60-70s, NSW plates were more orange than yellow.

Probably from that era and transferred to newer vehicles.

Looks like a custom plate to me. You can get that style at myplates.com.au.

Yes but it’s the colour which makes it look vintage.

The old colour was a “yolky” yellow which was first adopted in 1951. The paint became reflective in 1980 and standard plates are lemon yellow.

The old thread should have a link as the last post linking to this new thread.

It looked like someone was hand cleaning the NBN live camera tonight around 6.20ish.

Also some tech issues, not acknowledging live reporters leaving an awkward silence before moving on.

Sport was partly covered from Hunter Stadium tonight, ahead of tonight’s Knights v Dolphins game, done by Sophie Scanlon, who covered all the NRL news.

She did an interview with the Knights manager Peter Parr and voiced over other NRL news. Oddly they didn’t air any of the Nine Sydney NRL reports .

She then crossed back to Montanna Clare in the studio for the rest of the sports news.

Though were a lot of audio and video glitches from the stadium, which also appeared to result in Sophie and Montanna talking at the same time

Also noticed the Central Coast windows were a bit mistimed, kicking in a tad early clipping the audio at the end of the last report.

There were also 4 Central Coast news/sports reports, but also 5 or 6 Newcastle items aired across Northern NSW. Both were more than they usually do.

Isobella Evans doing a great job tonight in Canberra working on the Budget and what’s in store for NNSW

No bulletins tonight, “technical difficulties” according to a post on NBN’s facebook page

They’re going to upload some stuff to their website/facebook

Would be helpful if they put in their post that there would still be a news bulletin on air (even if it’s the Sydney one, not a local one).

Speaking of NBN’s Facebook page, is there a particular reason why it’s named “NBN Television” when their Twitter and Instagram are “NBN News”, and all other Nine station socials are named for their news bulletin?

(I know that the station used to be known as “NBN Television” lol)

Why is National Nine News airing in Newcastle tonight instead of NBN News?

Technical difficulties.

And website is “Nine NBN”… No consistency…

This was covered in the posts above yours.
