Central Victoria community radio

Ms EDWARDS: On Anzac Day 1982 our first community radio station in central Victoria went to air: 3CCC FM was broadcast from the old Harcourt train station. Forty years on, local resident Ian Braybrook has written a book, Radio Waves, and it was a real pleasure to launch it with many past presenters, volunteers and community members on Anzac Day. This is the story of community radio in our region, with contributions from the pioneers and those who volunteered and continue to do so to ensure local community radio thrives. Congratulations to Ian and Marilyn Bennet for their work in putting this book together.
