Canberra’s New Year Radio Movements
January 10th, 2007 at 07:33am
Over the summer break 2CA lost breakfast boy Paul Blunt to the Sunshine Coast, and music director/drive announcer Gregg Easton to nowhere in particular. However it looks like they are gaining Hayden Miller from 3CS in Colac. I don’t know whether he is a new breakfast boy or not, but at least 2CA are replacing lost staff!
FM 104.7 have lost Mason Edwards from Breakfast with Chris, Sarah and Mason. Their website indicates that the Chris and Sarah will continue as a duo. Apparently Mason has gone to sister station NXFM in Newcastle to anchor “Steve & Kim for Brekkie”, although seeing as he is neither Steve nor Kim, I’m a tad confused what the definition of “anchor” is in this case.
FM 104.7 and Mix 106.3 also lost their breakfast newsreader and senior journalist Matt Watson. Matt is currently considering his future, and 104.7 & Mix are looking for a replacement.
Other than that, people seem to be in their normal places (holidays excluded).

Would you ever consider trying to get a spot on one of these prestigious stations? I think you should see if you can do a graveyard sometime.

All of those stations are automated during the graveyard shift, but yes I would consider getting a spot on any of them.

Do you have a show on community radio, Sambo? If you don’t, that could be a way to get some experience.
