Telco works at 3MDR's Shared transmitter site are ongoing.

We thought they'd finished but alas the telco has requested one more shut down to repair a fault on top of the tower.

3MDR will once again be off air between 10am and 2pm on Monday 6th June 2016.

To catch your favourite Monday programs you can stream 3MDR live through the wonders of the internet at www.3mdr.com

After 15 years behind the microphone The Maestro has called it a day and retired from The Friday Breakfast Lounge.

Peter Haddow aka The Maestro has been a regular feature on breakfast radio as a volunteer presenter on the self proclaimed highest rating program broadcast on a Friday morning on community radio 3MDR 97.1fm.

You can catch The Maestro's last show via the FBL show page http://www.3mdr.com/programs.html?friday-breakfast-lounge

The Maestro's contribution to 3MDR has been amazing with a swag of great interviews conducted over the years, along with outside broadcasts, book and music reviews and so much more.

We'd like to thank Peter for his years of volunteering at community radio 3MDR and wish him well for his future adventures.

Yet another transmission shut down has been requested by a telecommunications company at 3MDR's shared transmitter site.

Unfortunately 3MDR will be off the air again on Wednesday 11th May from 7am to 7pm.

3MDR will not be available on 97.1fm but you can still catch your favourite shows via the live stream at 3mdr.com

Larry Lyrebird may be your entertainment provider throughout the day as some of our volunteer presenters may take the day off from presenting their shows.

3MDR has also been requested to reserve Thursday 12th May as a "back up" day for the telco to finish the works.  Hopefully the Thursday won't be required and we're back on the 97.1fm frequency.

We're hoping this is the last of the telco works as these interruptions are becoming quite a nuisance.

3MDR would like to apologise to the listeners, subscribers and sponsors for these ongoing interruptions.....alas it is out of our hands as 3MDR's transmitter site is shared by several telco companies....
