NZ 2Es update

During my 3 hour 2Es opening from New Zealand last week (see post below for log), I also heard racing on 91.1 and 92.5, but did not ID them.

After doing some internet searching, I believe 91.1 was LiveSport Wairarapa. This makes sense, as Wairarapa is located on the North Island, close to Wellington.

After further looking, 92.5 may have been TAB/Sky Sports Calcairn or Mulawalla, both in Southern NSW. Unfortunately I can not remember and did not take note if the racing on 91.1 and 92.5 were the same or different, so I won't be adding them to my log due to the uncertainty.

All quiet along the western front...

Well, teh southern front. Shock, horror! no e-skip to report. Won't be listening anymore today. About to get ready and head into the city. Will have some dinner and then a few beers.

Mid-week DX

4/1/12

10.30 to 11am
88.5 4ABCFM Gold Coast
90.5 4RBL Beaudesert
91.5 2JJJ Grafton/Kempsey
91.7 4ABCRR Gold Coast
92.3 2MRR Grafton/Kempsey
93.3 4SBS Brisbane
94.1 4JAZ Gold Coast
94.5 2NRR Richmond/Tweed
94.9 4MIX Ipswich
95.3 2ABCFM Richmond/Tweed
97.3 4BFM Brisbane
97.9 2ABCFM Grafton/Kempsey
99.5 2ABCRN Grafton/Kempsey

I noted more DX 11.45 to around 1pm when I stopped listening. Did not get any IDs, but based on Grafton continuing to pop up here and there during this period, I highly suspect they are:

91.3 2MAX Narrabri - Country music was playing
93.3 2BBB Dorrigo - oldies type music. Didn't stay long, but checked online web stream and the kind of music playing match.
93.5 2PNN Inverell - definitely NewsRadio, as it matched Riverland on 93.9 and NewsRadio do not time shift their programs.
