Triple M Riverina 1152

Triple M Riverina 1152 (2WG) broadcasts on the AM band from Wagga Wagga, New South Wales. Southern Cross Austereo owns the station, which Eric Vernon and Ida Annie Roberts established in June 1932. Triple M delivers a mainstream rock and adult contemporary format targeting working adults.

Triple M stands out for regional listeners by delivering localized announcers, crucial farming weather updates, and emergency broadcasts during floods. It partners with local football clubs and agricultural shows, while programs like Jamie and Leigh provide regional updates. Xtra Insights ratings indicate SCA holds a strong position among mature listeners through heritage presenters and sports coverage. ABC Riverina focuses on rural talk, and Hit 93.1 targets younger pop demographics, but Triple M remains the primary commercial choice for classic rock fans despite its traditional AM signal and standard ad load.

I have tuned into 2WG across the Riverina highways for years. The sports coverage and farming updates are solid, though the ad breaks run long and the AM sound quality takes some getting used to. Still, the local hosts keep the broadcast grounded for daily drives.
