They look more like logos for a cafe rather than a radio station.
Agree, I think they look a bit plain - needs a bit more colour to project some vibrancy and life that better reflects the stationâs positioning (particularly for Triple G).
So are they Gunnedah stations or Coonabarabran stations?
Itâs at least somewhat consistent with their sweepers, in which Triple G always mention 104.1 Coonabarabran, but lists various towns in different sweepers for 97.5 eg. âCarrollâs 97.5 Triple G FM, and 104.1 FM Coonabarabranâ so doesnât always mention Gunnedah.
A very good observation. They could easily be confused for a Coonabarabran station.
Yeah agree. Or a hairdressing salon. I donât like to be critical, butâŚno.
It really bugs me that SRN doesât have some consistent branding. Sure, keep individual station names, but tie it together with some consistent and proffessional network branding.
I donât care that they arenât consistent. Individuality is not a bad thing and IMO should be encouraged rather than the cookie cutter HiT/MMM model, but I just find the SRN logos so aesthetically poor. Like thereâs no graphic skill behind any of them. These 2MO/Triple G ones another example. They look nice but I agree with previous comments that they look more like hipster cafe logos or whatever, not for radio stations.
I get that thereâs no budget at SRN and poor staff are probably paying for this sort of thing out of their own pockets but this is professional radio not some volunteer effort and should at least try to look the part.
Why would you be paying for this when you can make it for free in many many different ways.
UPDATE: According to Triple Gâs Facebook page, their new breakfast announcer has just been announced. It is ex-NowFM breakfast announcer Ben.
EARLIER:
Their new logos instantly reminded me of this:
McTriple G Cheeseburger?
Complete with side serving of a mixed bag of music.
*May contain excess 80âs to now
You get what you pay for
I feel like this is the type of thing youâd see on a sign in front of a religious cult compoundâŚ
Plus itâs crooked and looks like something slapped together in paint⌠no clue or clever trolls
I thought it was supposed to be super radio network, not super network radioâŚ
Nothing to see here and no comment they will say.
It definitely does look religious lol
Looks like Jimmy Swaggart is about to appear on daytime TV
Or maybe on the Super Radio Network radio!
Bill might sell Jimmy some airtime to get his tentacles into Australian country radio!
At this point I wouldnât be surprised to hear US-style âgospel huxterâ programming on the SRN. As we know, if the price is right and it fills airtimeâŚ
There are actually a lot of these âbrokered timeâ AM stations in the US. Most run on the hint of the smell of an oily rag. Unprofitable but for the interminable variations of the God Squad just waiting to add to their flock.
Keep into mind some of the SRN stations play âMessages of Hopeâ
Trust me they pay well, very well for their 30second-> Multi Minutes on-air spots
Please feel free to send them our way, happy to spread their message for moneyâŚ

I am showing my age here, 2XL in the mid to late 80âs use to do this too. A 30 second religious message âBrought to you by your local churchâ
This would have been in the same era when 2SM was owned by the Catholic Church and had Sunday night religious programming.
Something similar was on 2NX in the mid 1980s⌠it would be 30 seconds of a Christian song with the end tag of something like âbrought to you by your local churchâ⌠as 2NX was owned by 2SM at the time as well. It was only usually on at night.
