Though I note how small that Nine logo is.

I still get the impression that Mosbri Crescent still doesn’t like having to use the Nine brand for anything outside of news.

I wonder if the reason for the change of digital transmissions for Nine-NBN in the Port Macquarie/Taree areas is because they’ll be providing a separate advertising feed in line with Prime7 & WIN. That said, they would still share the same local news/sport insert with Coffs/Kempsey/Grafton.

Good point, I assume there will be a new LCN name too eg. Nine Lower North Coast or maybe Nine Manning River given that apart from Newcastle, they don’t use town based names.

If they don’t already have local areas on the LCN names, my guess would be, from north to south (official local area names in brackets):

  • Nine Northern Rivers (Richmond/Tweed - Lismore and Gold Coast)
  • Nine North West (North West Slopes & Plains - Tamworth)
  • Nine Mid North Coast (Northern Rivers & Mid North Coast - Coffs Harbor and Taree)
  • Nine Newcastle or Nine Hunter
  • Nine Central Coast

Yep, sure is.

although the promo on air had a MASSIVE Nine logo in the bottom right corner.

When I was in the area in November last year, the North West feed was labelled “Nine New England”.

Correct, and Northern Rivers is labelled as “Nine Far North Coast”.

Is that the actual Northern Rivers and Mid North Coast local area or the one that I decided to label as “Northern Rivers” (Richmond/Tweed)?

Northern Rivers around Lismore, Ballina, Byron, Tweed, aka the Lismore viewing area.

Nine Newcastle.

Nine-NBN Central Coast.

The HD bug via NBN looks slightly smaller than the Nine metro one (and also isn’t as transparent):

Today there was no coverup on Early and Morning News, but there was on Afternoon News:

I’m also noticing that the EPG now correctly labels all daytime bulletins as Nine News.

I can’t help but think those cover ups are being inserted in Newcastle, as I can’t imagine Nine putting those on at the Frenchs Forest playout centre.

no coverups for the past few weeks, only on 4pm as it says “Sydney” and apparently Lismore and Tamworth et al can’t work out whether they’re bushies or city-dwellers

So in other words, it shouldn’t be airing full stop if it’s just for Sydney?

Keep the cover up until a generic one can be established without Sydney. It shouldn’t be acceptable to have Sydney outside Sydney if their viewers mattered.
