Triple M launch Classic Rock Digital (for real)
Triple M have had their fun with 24 hours of non-stop Kiss (playing on all the speculation of the possible launch of Kiis FM by ARN).
This morning, the Triple M Classic Rock Digital channel kicked in for real.
For an hour or so leading up to 10am they played a loop of the opening riff of The Who’s 'Won’t Get Fooled Again'…. then the launch piece aired….

Former KOFM Music Director Jacqui Kassulke (who loves her classic rock) tweeted this morning :-

The digital station will be heard in Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide and Brisbane. Perth won't get the Classic Rock station as they recently launched their own Triple M on DAB+ to work alongside 92.9 and Mix 94.5.
