It was Cherie Romaro in the Sydney Morning Herald ( 4-10 April 2011) who wrote: "when things got a bit stressful, I used to turn to 2CH. Yes I was a 2CH closet listener, AM signal and all, because the station's music immediately transported me to another era" ( "Make it easy again, 2CH"). The column then goes on to talk about the change in format to play old music - but any old music - not that easy smooth ballad music that stirs your feelings and recognises that life is difficult ( Smooth FM does a bit of this now - although they seem to have recorded night time announcers that pretend to be live). The customer service at 2CH also went bad - with some staff treating listeners very poorly ( not answering emails, not attending to music requests etc.). I hope no one will make changes to the Christian flavour of the station ( including the excellent Sunday night Kel Richards talkback program),
I hope it is sold to a company totally separate from MML and does not take any programming from MML.
