Welcome to Wilderness Radio 3MGB
3MGB is the community radio station for Mallacoota, Genoa and surrounding areas in remote Far East Gippsland. We provide a diverse range of local content as well as news and other programs through the Australian Community Radio Network (CRN). 3MGB is run by volunteers, which means we’re one of only a few radio stations that completely rely on community support.
While we integrate our own programs with the CRN content, local programs are our top priority. Our team of presenters bring us local chat and a heap of great tunes, including blues, rock, folk, jazz, classical, golden oldies, funk, indie and much more.
New presenters needed
We’re always on the lookout for new presenters, and training is provided by 3MGB, so you don’t need any know-how or experience. If you’d like to start by having a look at the studio to see us in action, just let us know. Perhaps you’d like to sit in with other presenters for a while, or help out with a program to get a feel for how it works – that’s all fine! We’re always happy to welcome new folk into the team. Contact us and we’ll get things underway.
