NATIONAL RECOGNITION
It was a huge Saturday night for Radio
Adelaide at the national community
broadcasting awards, held here in
Adelaide in November. We took off the
two top prizes!
First, we won The Tony Staley Award –
which recognises an outstanding station
or project that promotes the values of
community broadcasting: democracy,
access, diversity and independence
– for The Wire; our national current
affairs program, this year celebrating
ten years on air.
MURRAY BRIDGE HEADS TO OUTER SPACE
What happens when a group of creative
young musicians meet an award-winning
multi-instrumentalist? Listen to our upcoming
summer special to find out.
Radio Adelaide is a founding partner
of The Wire, and manages the project
along with 2ser Sydney and 4EB
Brisbane. It is created for broadcast
on community and Indigenous stations
nationally and heard by up to 4 million
people each day.
It’s the third time Radio Adelaide has
won the prestigious Tony Staley Award.
We won in 2012 for our achievements
over 40 years on air, and in 1996, for
our innovative use of new media, as the
first station to livestream programming.
Then it was both exciting and moving
when Nicky Page took off the top
individual award, The Michael Law
Award, recognising her achievements
as Training Manager of the sector’s
first Registered Training Organisation,
Radio Adelaide.
Adelaide musician Adam Page spent three
weeks working with students from regional
Murraylands Schools in September. Adam
encouraged the students to improvise and
try out composing their own original music,
including some free-form improv to create
the feeling of being in outer-space. He also
created some original compositions just for
them.

Her talent for bringing people
together and managing the logistics
of accredited training have seen her
co-ordinate training in a wide range of
stations nationally, and play a key role
in the development of a quality training
culture across the sector.
It all came together at a concert
at Murray Bridge Town Hall
late in September, and Radio
Adelaide's Ian Newton and Don
Balaz were there to capture the
sounds and speak to the students
about what this unique musical
experience meant to them. Don’t
miss it!

ON YER BIKE
What drives a professional cyclist? How do
they endure the gruelling challenges of a
major cycling event?
ROLE PLAYED. STANDING OVATION
At the end of November 2014, we salute a
mammoth broadcasting achievement and the
final program of The Role Playing Hour.
For eleven years RPH founder Adrian Thurwald
has written a full one hour script each week
for this unique radio drama, where 'fantasy
characters go beserk'. A keen and unorthodox
team of radio actors takes his ideas to the
airwaves, performing live to air.
The RPH fan network is worldwide. For
example, the image above was sent as a
homage from New Jersey fan Victor Laube!
Adrian is now Dr Adrian and with PhD tucked
under his arm, he is heading off for new
horizons overseas. Friday night will never be
the same without DM, Jim and the gang.
But we've re-grouped, as we must. Mosh,
a show with a growing radio and online
following now moves to two hours each week,
Fridays at 9pm.
Find out when our Tour Down Under special
On Yer Bike returns to the airwaves when the
professional peloton hits Adelaide for the Tour
in January.
On Yer Bike will be packed with the latest
news, race results and in-depth analysis of the
day’s event, along with exclusive interviews
and expert commentary offering insights into
the body and mind of the elite cyclist.

MEET THE NEIGHBOURS
What does community radio mean to you? Maybe it’s the
only place you can hear the kind of music you really love,
or a special place for your own language and culture. Or
maybe it's the spot you’ll hear the latest news about local
events, or just the feeling that by turning the dial to your
local community station you’re taking a break from the usual
predictable media product.
Around five million people listen to community radio each
week, and here in South Australia community radio is
strong. The 2014 National Listener Survey reveals that
29% of people in South Australia listen to community radio
each week. Importantly, many local people around our
state are involved in making community radio each day and
sharing their voices and music with their own community.
The community radio sector census shows more than 2000
people contribute to community radio in South Australia.
Community radio is also strong in the far north of the state
and in the Northern Territory, where a network of Indigenous
stations reach regional and remote communities with locallyproduced radio.
There are over 30 community radio stations in South
Australia, with more in the NT, and each is as unique as the
community it comes from. So we thought it was time to meet
just a few of the neighbours!
Join the Tribe
Eileena Muraca is Chair of Tribe FM, a new station in the
southern township of Willunga. Tribe have a temporary
licence, and are striving for a permanent licence though
broadcast regulator ACMA.
The station started with a
focus on specialist music
but is now incorporating a
wider range of programs
drawn from the interests
of local residents and the
many visitors to the area.
Eileena says “Tribe is
so important for the
individual volunteers. Their
involvement in running the
station contributes their
own individual growth,
There’s also a feeling of
community participation
that’s so positive and
really leads to a better
quality of life.”
The station is also a
positive for the broader local community, says Eileena.
“It lets local organisations, like government, council and
community groups, speak to people in our area and so they
can connect with a wider audience.“
“I’m pretty sure that that all contributes to a more cohesive
and collaborative community culture.”
Always Fresh
Troy Sincock has been
involved with Fresh
92.7 since the start. In
1997 three young guys
heard a dance music
station on a road trip to
Melbourne and decided
that Adelaide needed a
station just the same.
To many ears, Fresh
doesn’t sound like your
usual community station.
Instead of a mix of
diverse programs, Fresh
maintains a consistent
format across the day
and week. Troy explains
the thinking behind
Fresh’s sound.
“That’s our approach
to community radio –
we’re very focussed on serving the community in a way
that enables us to build the biggest possible audience. Our
view is that with the biggest reach we can have the biggest
impact.”
Fresh is proud to have strong support from its listeners and
supporters. Their Transmission project recently won the
station a Community Broadcasting Association of Australia
Award for Best Station Promotion, Sponsorship or Fundraising
Campaign. Station supporters contributed a staggering
$88,000 to upgrade the station's transmission.
Troy says “It was exciting because it helped us create a
stronger bond between us and the audience, which is the
special thing that community radio possesses that commercial
radio just can’t tap into.“
Driving North
Angela Guest grew up in community radio; her mother
Denise was general manager of 5PBA for many years and
now she is in the role.
The station has been a part of life in the northern region of
Adelaide for a long time – it was formed back in 1979. At
that time multicultural communities looking for a place to
share their language and culture drove the opening of the
station.
PBA today is a diverse station, with those community
language programs continuing and a raft of specialist music
programs now on air. In recent years it has also welcomed
younger broadcasters, through the Jibba Jabba project, in
partnership with a local youth centre and Radio Adelaide.
It also regularly gets involved in the local community. Being
located in the home of Holden, PBA recently broadcast from
“All Torana Day”, a celebration of everything Torana.
Asked what would be missing if PBA didn’t exist, Angela
considers, “It would be our unique presenters and their
unique style. The way they present on air is special. They
bring that connection with the local area and bring the local
area in to the station community.”
culture, news & beats AFRO WORLD
radio.adelaide.edu.au/program/afro-world Saturdays 9 – 10pm
“Yet we manage to
run a station where
we can rely on each
other and support one
another. I think that’s
pretty special.”
Without EBI, the
broadcast world would
be very different for
community members
who speak a language
other than English.
Cristina says “5EBI
is important in
maintaining and
connecting people
to their language,
culture and identity,
providing vital support
for Australia’s diverse
communities.”
The Connector
CAAMA Radio may be based in Alice Springs but its listeners
live right across outback Australia, including most of remote
South Australia.
Many remote Indigenous networks take CAAMA as their
'bed' service, and so the station is heard across about onethird of the whole of Australia, in places like Coober Pedy,
Ceduna, Yalata, Yuendumu, Warburton and many other
remote communities.
This range and reach gives CAAMA a special place in the
lives of many. CAAMA Radio Manager Gerry Terati Lyons
says that connecting people is at the heart of who they do.
“It's connection to land, strengthening and providing a voice
and creating opportunity for people in remote areas.”
“It's also about spirit; about hope, support and family; the
feeling that even if you're all alone in the Simpson Desert you
can connect through the voices, languages and music you
hear on CAAMA.”
CAAMA and Radio Adelaide have strong connections.
We've been training partners for ten years, and enjoy
working together on programming and special events.
These include the national current affairs program The Wire,
which CAAMA joined in 2014 as a contributor station.
Multicultural Voices
One of South Australia’s oldest community stations, 5EBI
holds a very important role for many South Australians. It’s
the home of many programs in languages other than English,
with 46 broadcasting groups involved from varied cultural,
ethnic and language backgrounds.
President Cristina Descalzi believes the relationship between
all these people from diverse cultures makes 5EBI unique.
“As the 'human race' it is sometimes hard to reach agreement
and I guess people think it is harder to do when we are all
very diverse and come from very different backgrounds.”
HARVEST
Rox Rocks
RoxFM's motto is “local, live and loving it” and it plays a
special role in the outback town of Roxby Downs; it’s the only
broadcast media producing local material to the township and
surrounding areas. Station Manager Ross Wilson says that the
station operates with the support of 'everyday volunteers' from
the township.
The nature of Roxby means that there are always different
faces at the station. Ross explains, “In Roxby, 70% of the
population changes over in any three year period. Mining is
a big part of the town and people come up on a fly-in fly-out
basis and, when contracts finish, they leave town.”
The constant influx of new people, along with the remote
location, makes Rox FM central to life in Roxby Downs.
“The radio station is regarded as the source of all info. It's
very well supported by the local council and The Monitor,
(the local paper). We're really very isolated in Roxby and the
community needs to work together and help one another. Rox
is a big part of that.”
That's just a taste of the community stations around our
state and region. There are many more, and each is different,
reflecting the interests and character of its community.
It’s a reality that has seen support for community radio
stay strong even in the face of changing technology and
speculation over government policy.
When community radio seemed in danger of losing its digital
future in 2013, and again before this year's Federal budget,
when funding looked shaky, the Commit to Community Radio
campaign galvanised support around the country.
Community radio offers an enormous range of content and
information, presented by people in their local communities.
It's local and independent.
That’s something you can you can check for yourself by turning
your dial to your local community station.

BEHIND
“I love the people around the station and the creativity that’s
always in the air. I also love being involved in community
radio and discovering the most incredible artists you wouldn’t
hear on your mainstream stations. It’s all about community
and Radio Adelaide is a pretty special community in itself.”
“My favourite part of hosting The Range is getting to witness
some incredible live performances in the studio. Jacob
Pearson is probably the most recent stand out. I just sat there
as he played an acoustic set with goosebumps covering
my arms and my jaw on the ground, knowing we were
witnessing something pretty special.”
PROGRAM PROFILE
BEHIND THE SCREENS
If you’re sick of hearing news from tinsel town that focusses
more on celebrity gossip than filmmaking, Behind The
Screens is for you. The Saturday morning program takes a
wide berth around Hollywood and shines the spotlight on
local films and filmmakers.
It celebrates the people who work on films, particularly
Australian productions and those made here in South
Australia. You’ll hear from directors, producers, festival
directors, make up and special effects artists, basically
anyone who has a role in the screen industry.
Founding member of the program Rebecca Elliot explains,
“We try not to focus on movie reviews but more on the
industry. And not just movies; Screen encompasses TV,
games and multiplatform stories.”
FACE TO A NAME
SOPHIE McKAY
A lifelong passion for music drove Sophie McKay to get
involved at Radio Adelaide.
“Music has always been something I have to be around,
whether it be playing it, photographing it, talking about
it! So I thought radio was the best way to do that. I did
the radio production course at Radio Adelaide through
my Bachelor of Media at Adelaide University and never
left.”
While she started with MediaRites, Sophie soon became
a producer on Breakfast.
“I never thought I wanted to be on-air. I was always
happy in the producer’s seat until I was asked to host
a couple of F Sharp music shows through the season.
While it was totally daunting at the time and I was the
most nervous I’d ever been, it made me realise just how
much fun it is.”
On top of co-hosting The Friday Sessions on The Range
with Chris Komorek on Friday afternoons and training
new students in Radio Adelaide’s Certificate III in
Media, Sophie manages to balance full-time study at
MAPS film school and an administration job, as well
as performing music with her sister in their band Nikai.
She’s also a part of the Behind the Screens team on
Saturday mornings.
The program celebrates its fourth birthday in December, and
is still unearthing great new local talent. Along with Rebecca,
the team is Jordan Archer, Finley McNeilage, Sophie McKay,
Dianne Janes and Chrissy
Kavanagh.
Everyone on the team is
involved in the film or media
industry in some way, so they
know exactly where to look
to find the next great thing.
Rebecca says that Adelaide
is current in its own little
'Golden Age' of cinema.
“Lots of new Australian
feature films being seen and
loved were actually made
here”. Those films include
Babadook, Red Dog, and
The Rover.
“We’re making great things;
it’s just a shame that it’s a
time when people aren’t actually going the movies. One of
the reasons we make the program is to show people that
there’s always something going on.”

ADRIAN
RASCHELLA
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN
WE SET THEM FREE?
According to Adrian Raschella,
Radio Adelaide is a unique
and important place where
broadcasters can experiment and
discover their own voice on air.
Adrian now holds one of the most
highly sought after media jobs in
Australia – he’s Arts Reporter with
ABC TV in Sydney. But his media
career started at Radio Adelaide
in 1990, as a Breakfast news
presenter.
“It was a lot of fun first thing and it also gave me hands
on experience in a very professional environment”, he
says.
around him but that didn’t stop him – he moved on to another
commercial station, 5AA, and completed his cadetship to
become a fully-fledged journalist.
After the early starts on news, Adrian moved on to cohost the music show Australian Only. “That was a whole
different type of radio. It was good experimenting, finding
out what I liked and what I didn’t like, what I wanted to
do in that completely different, more conversational type
of radio.”
From there Adrian went to Channel 10 where he did “general
rounds” on TV news. In 1999 Adrian moved to Sydney and
worked in the team that covered the Sydney Olympics for
Channel 7 and from there to the ABC.
“That’s different to other media places. Once you enter
that sphere, it’s about producing the content that is
needed by the organisation. There’s not the freedom to
experiment as much.”
After his time at Radio
Adelaide, Adrian worked
at metropolitan commercial
radio station 5DN as a
cadet. The station shut down
Adrian loves his job, but says it isn’t as glamorous as you might
imagine. His first piece to camera when he made the move to
TV was in front of a rubbish dump.
He does get to meet plenty of talented and inspiring people
including Brad Pitt, Hugh Jackman, Cate Blanchett, Oprah
Winfrey and Gillian Anderson.
“Doing arts and culture in a place like Sydney, you do get to
meet a lot of famous faces and really talented people. Not
only are they stars to me , but they’re also people I find quite
inspiring.”
