Both Wollongong stations are awful IMO.
Think nothing of the 2 Gong stations but that 2DAY list is interesting to say the list. Donât completely hate it either.
There should be a law for 2 stations in the same market having the exact music format. I really feel for people in the Gong. As for the 2Day log, I could actually listen to that.
An interesting observation about the 2Day FM playlist is today the exact same songs were played at 9am and 7pm.
I mentioned in the âRadio outside Australiaâ thread that Antenne Bayern has just established a new classic hits station for the state of North Rhine-Westphalia, so there are now three broadcast stations - Antenne Bayern (Hot AC), Antenne NRW (classic hits) and Rock Antenne (rock). I did a log of all three stations for the same hour overnight and during breakfast (German time).

I am a big fan of the Rock Antenne log. Upbeat and AOR heavy.
I think all three stations put together a good log for their respective formats and the âfeelâ for all of them is generally upbeat with a bit of variety.
They are great logs!
Antenne Bayern has been running a 24 hour telethon on Friday 17 December, raising money for a number of charities across Bavaria. For a donation listeners can request a song and by midday German time the station had raised over 1 million Euro.

âAinât no sunshineâ Bill Withers
âHypnotisedâ Purple Disco Machine and Sophie & The Giants

I know itâs a telethon but I canât imagine an Australian radio station playing such a listener requested playlist for a similar fundraiser.
Triple Jâs Requestival was a bit like that though.
