Well what a time we are having. First we had our state conference in Adelaide. Then came The Great Moscow Circus setting up next to our studios (they were great people) and now we have the Smelters Picnic here in Port Pirie on Wednesday 27th September. We will be broadcasting from the picnic from 9am until late in the afternoon. we look forward to seeing you there. Stop by and have a chat, we would love to see you.

We have been working through some problems with our website. As we correct these issues the website should perform faster and the initial loading should also be quicker. Please be patient while we do this, the rewards will come soon.

After 15 or more years, our Rob Lawrie programme has come to an end.

Rob passed away recently, and with his family’s blessing we continued broadcasting the last programmes that Rob had scheduled until they finished last Sunday. Rob’s programme started in our area and spread to stations all over Australia. We will miss Rob’s voice on Sundays and his style of programming which he developed over time from his original multi file format to the current single polished format file. Rob thank you for your dedication to broadcasting.

changes have been made to our Home page to show our programme guide as a series of drop downs. This enables you to select a day without having to scroll down large lists.

Our Documents page has been updated to make it easier to view and download documents. Additional changes are being looked at to add to this page.
