The original Benchwarmers, I can't remember their names, were actually not bad to listen to.. These two are just a pack of idiots and the peak of their comedy is fart jokes and the like. When I listen to Jamie Dunn on Zinc96 - they are really funny! I know what you mean about the SeaFM morning show, they have had so many presenters I can't remember them all. I know that current New Zealand girl is terrible - when I flick onto SeaFM in the morning (hardly ever) I just listen to them for 2 minutes and they make me cringe!! If they can be fired for not being funny, every single person on air should be sacked! It comes back to talent, and you can pickup who don’t have talent in 5 seconds.

Cause Sea-fm is Aggregated radio service and can be broadcasting from Mars or the moon stuio One point both of them were in the Maryborough Studio. But most of the presenters were in Bundy and So they moved it out of the Fraser coast studio. The second problem with sea fm morning crew. Is they can't keep personality very long and eventually move on Station managers and Sea-fm heads can fire you unexpecting if your considered "Not funny" or entertaining The presentors are fillers and most likely sitting up in Bundaberg studio.

I'm not 100% on what order the towers will be done, but there was quite a lot of discussion on where that 'enhanced coverage' will be. HB Airport - This is to improve coverage to those in Booral and River Heads Point Vernon - Obviously because right down the end of the esplanade that 'fantastic tower' on main street is completely useless Torquay - I'm not sure why they would do something stupid like that tbh Dundowran - There's already a tower there, so another "i'm not sure" on that one. I know a lot of the coverage I get here in river heads is from the Susan River and Dundowran Towers, and coverage in Toogoom and Burrum heads is also provided by that Dundowran Tower I believe. So perhaps they're adding an extra one for the extra capacity as well as better coverage to some users. The towers in Hervey Bay CITY will be 2100mhz (congratulations iPhone users), and most out-of-town base stations will be 900mhz or U9/U21 (a combination of 900mhz and 2100mhz). Completion of the network in Hervey Bay was actually supposed to be completed by the end of September, but has been pushed back because there was a fault somewhere. Others in River Heads or people on the commute to Maryborough via Maryborough-Hervey Bay Rd. may have even noticed a little 3g coverage like i have lately, i'd assume that they're doing testing. So keep an eye on your phone, and a big HA HA to people who bought into the iPhone hype. I'm quite happy with my hdspa 900/2100 nokia e71 now ;) I commented in a previous comment about the 3g network in Hervey Bay.
