I’ll just quickly comment on finding the ‘Feel Good’ sweepers on Triple M a bit strange - as was hearing some of the song selections on a station called Triple M - but I certainly preferred it over 7HOFM.

When I was at Hobart in March last year, I gave 7HO & Triple M an equal amount of my listening time, and I do agree with you that Triple M is musically more preferrable over 7HO, despite the fact that Triple M’s log generates from the Gold Coast, whilst 7HO’s is done locally. Then again, the AFL season hadn’t yet started when I was down there, which helps on being able to listen to Triple M during the weekend.

It will be interesting to see how both stations perform in this year’s Hobart radio ratings later this year.

I didn’t listen to much of LAFM - their music selection just seemed strange.

I didn’t listen to it much either. In case you didn’t know already, 7SD (which can be picked up in Victoria via AM) carries the same log as LAFM.

I didn’t mind 7XS as a station - for it being the only commercial station, it’s a fairly good format. I read somewhere that it shares a music log with 7HOFM, but either that isn’t always the case, or I just got a better run of their music choices for the time I was in the area.

I didn’t get to listen to it much when I was in the West Coast, although I guess in hindsight, I should’ve paid a bit more attention to it. Oh well, at least I can always stream them online.
