I still like them.
I was in Sydney the other week and it was actually a bit strange hearing a frequency at all in the jingle. Of course Iâm used to listening to Smooth only on digital here in Brisbane so Iâm accustomed to just hearing âSmooth FMâ in the jingle.

Agreed- though Iâve always liked âSafewayâ better than âWoolworthsâ for some odd reason.
Dublinâs Sunshine 106.8 also have the Music4 IDs:
Melissa Doyle presenting during the afternoons this week - is this new? AFAIR, she used to just host for a couple of hours on the weekends.
Melissa is probably only just filling in over the survey break. She has filled in on afternoons before.

Mike Perso and Melissa Doyle will host a special one-hour extended edition of the More Music Breakfast show (9am-10am), sharing the great stories of the Royal Childrenâs Hospital, the Good Friday Appeal and smoothfm 91.5âs involvementâs at the Kids Day Out.

Itâs about time they did some promotion in the DAB only cities - Brisbane, Adelaide and Perth. They run local advertising. They need to keep up with SCA who are finally starting to embrace their DAB stations. They could get the jump on ARN which are hopeless with their DAB offerings.
