All radio stations in the capitol cities of Australia are very easily accessed on the following website;

www.1radio.com.au

I have many hours of enjoyment listening to my favourite station in Melbourne, Magic 1278, the best songs of all times, 24 hrs. It is a commercial station with local news on the hour but the music ( especially for us slightly mature persons )is great !

Scroll down to Melbourne then Magic 1278. Click "Visit the Website". Will open and then click "Listen Live" in box on upper right-hand side.

Enjoy !

Cheers

Hi Gonzo, well worth persevering. Tell me where you come unstuck and I'll try and walk you through again.

Have been listening for the past hour plus. Fabulous ( my taste )

Could be it ! I try to be nice ...because nice is good and I just didn't want to hurt Gonzo's feelings.

Cheers

I guess he deserves that.

I'm not an Aussie and I am sitting here in Bahrain. Being a bit on the old side I do love those 'oldies'. No problem for me to tune in and listen.

Works very well for me down here in " Sin City ", many thanks!

Aussies and gentle, in the same sentence?

Ain't them fightin' words?

(And to all my Oz friends on the forum, more than a few- you know I'm just kidding)

Are you SURE you were kidding? I was going to say exactly the same thing. I was once married to one.

Hi Kered,

Yes, you're right ...but it's only the station logos that have been removed ...otherwise all else works fine.

Just remember that when scrolling down to Melbourne then Magic 1278 you will see 2 active click spots ( both in red )first one says "listen" ( DON'T click ) second one says "visit the website" ( DO click ). This will take you to the website for Magic 1278.

There you will find a box in upper right hand side showing the usual 3 presenters for the day ( one of which will be highlighted as being on air . Look just below that box of 3 and you will see ( again in blue, with loudspeaker icon ) "Listen Live" .

You're there ! click and get 50's - 80's "groovy" ! - or, depending on the time of day/night perhaps some good ol' rock 'n roll ! Perhaps a bit of country & western.

Enjoy ! Promise you a treat !

Your instructions are good but Firefox would not play, just silence! However I changed browser to Google Chrome and it came up with a window asking to download a Windows Media plug in, after the download it worked perfectly.

This may also be Gonzo's problem.

Many thanks for the help and introduction to good music.

No problem here with Firefox/IE/Chrome all work well. All it does is ask for your choice of programme to open it with. Possibly because I run Win Media, Real player and several others.

Currently playing....."I fought the law" naturally the law won:rolleyes:

Just been listening for a while now, and just heard the DJ...Hah!! it's and old mate of mine, Peter Van, so I just called him and told him I was listening here. Talk about a small world!!

Just a quick note to say thanks....this is a great find.

Best of all the announcers speak English as it was truly meant to be spoke by God.

I can understand every word....

Thanks - would never have known about this. Only difference is I have tuned into a Brisbane station. (being a banana bender and not a Mexican ) Great listening
