Gary, Back in the days (70s) when they were 2KM on 530 and then 531, they IDed after every song. Then in the 80s when they changed to 2MC (Mid Coast Radio) they still IDed with 2 M C or "Mid Coast", but after the change over to 2PM (Port Macquarrie) they don't ID like they used to unfortunately. I believe they are a network now too. They have been an old friend for at least 40 years here on the coast. They were always in the clear in the 70s & 80s, but after 1XPI came on, the QRM was there. Alexandra NZ was heard on occasion, but not as common. But PI (Pacific Islands Radio) is strong. Then a couple years back when the typhoon tore up the towers of 4KZ, they became common also, after going ND. That has been a jewell of luck for us DXers, as I tried for years to nab them, but never could until the past couple of years. 4KZ generally nulls the NE, but now is ND. I have no idea when they will get their towers back and the DA system back in order.
