Melbourne radio station 1611 3XX has ceased transmission and is is now offering an audio stream on-line, listen live In what is being described as an oversight, the licence renewal was sent to an old mailing address. By the time the station received the renewal and made contact to the ACMA the licence had been sold. It is understood that [link=http://www.noisefm.com.au]Noise FM[/link] have now secured the 1611 licence.
3XX first went to air in 2002 and has been best known for their mix of 80s and 90s hits and dance music amongst other related genres. They have also covered VFL football with live weekend calls since 2007. [link=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3XX]Wiki here[/link]

Who cares? Off band irrelevancy, did nothing to advance the cause of upper band AM radio.
How slack is the owner to be in hospital and to have had the renewal sent to an old address? Shape up matey, wouldn't want the ignominy of it happening to again, this time to his LPON. -

That is real sad news as it was one of the few narrowcast
stations that had a definite format and one i used to
listen to on a regular basis. No doubt Anton put a lot of
time and money into the venture. On a frequency that most
radios could hear and a good signal a lot could have been made of it. I hope the new owners do something worthwhile
with it.
The whole Off band thing is a complete mess apart from
a few ethnic and xx mostly people holding on to the
frequency with 24/7 computer programed music or dead
carriers. -
