Both run a different music log from one another, with the Central Coast running the Hobart log, which also goes out to its Regional WA stations.

How many different music logs are there in the regional Triple M network?

Did Gold FM do anything different? Or did they just flick the switch.

Ok, how long has that been the case, (for reasons Iā€™m not going into here, I refuse to listen to any SCA stations, no matter how good they may be), last time I listened they were on the same logs?

That being the case, you can now listen to 3 totally different Triple M stations within 100km of each other, & in many places across the coast, you can listen to all 3 at the same time, now thereā€™s branding failure at itā€™s best, well done SCA.

Since April 1.

At first, 2GO was only running the Hobart log on weekdays, but takes the network log on weekends & public holidays. Recently, they now run the Hobart log on weekends.

I decided to ring 2GO reception about thisā€¦ the lady who answered the phone didnā€™t seem very interestedā€¦ a response along the lines of ā€œjust pick oneā€ā€¦ not very helpful. Maybe she didnā€™t really understand what I meant

I think all regional Mā€™s should stick to a Classic Hits format leaving CHR to Hit.

Probably didnā€™t understand what you were talking about, you shouldā€™ve said Iā€™ll pick the Newcastle one, it rates better than the Central Coast one, lol.

The Central Coast tech is the Newcastle tech, based at Honeysuckle so it wouldā€™ve been him who changed it, & maybe why itā€™s the same, you might be better off ringing SCA Newcastle?

Meanwhile, on Monday just gone, Hit 103.5 in Cairns celebrated its 25th birthday on air with a live broadcast from Cairns Esplanade. The station first went to air as 103.5 Hot FM on 4th November 1994 as a supplementary licence of 4CA (now owned by Grant Broadcasters).

A bit surprising with a City the size of Cairns, Hit 103.5 is only local between 6 to 9am weekdays, while Hit 103.1 Townsville is local until 3pm.

I agree, It make no sense and sounds out of place to me. You have the metro Mā€™s targeting males while the regional Mā€™s are targeting females.
Plus why would you call the AM stations Triple M? Every time I listen to 2RG and hear Triple M I cringe.

Yes the AM Triple Ms are truly cringe worthy.
