I have heard reference to Zone 4 Channel 44 tonight and I understand that Garry has heard them refer to both Channel 44 and 69
These may be references to the "local" voting channel on Zone 4 channel selection
Ch 44 seems to be Taree and Ch 69 Forster based on Garry's previous listening
Starting to wonder that Regional Country areas to the north of Sydney maybe utilising Zone 4 (NAC 61F) and areas to south Zone 3 (NAC 61F)
As we know from the past the radio profiles can be quite exotic and dont follow the logical input positions, as they fit every conceivable combination in

Telegraph Pt now operational in the Port Macquarie area, sometime in last two months

469.0625. Oscar Tx Telegraph Point

A quick check on some earlier posts on this thread suggest it is the southern most site in the Kempsey digital vote group (which has the common 458.4375mhz input)
