"Remember When" on 3AW used to be much more music based when it was hosted
by Clark Sinclair and the late Neville Wragg (in the 1980s?).
I enjoyed Kevin O'Neil's "All Time Favourites" on 2KY - it was clearly
heard in Melbourne between the time 3TT (ex-3DB) went off the air and
Newsradio started.
Another angle could be what did racing stations do on Sundays before Sunday
racing became common?
3UZ (now Sport 927) played country music from 1977 through the 1980s and
then switched to Golden Memories.
Many stations used to play religious programs on Sunday nights; 3XY was non
stop religion (including Back to the Bible), 3KZ had Billy Graham and "The
World Tomorrow". 2KY had Oral Roberts. I don't think he was heard in
Melbourne. Poor Oral later fell from grace in the USA.
Some of these religious programs are still heard on community radio. Would
any commercial stations still broadcast them? Perhaps the closest thing
might be the Catholic (?) program on 3AW 0000-0100 Saturdays. It used to be
the Catholic House at 2100 Sundays. In my time at 3AW (1969-1972), there was
"Promenade Concert" on Sunday nights 1830-2100 was light classic stuff and
2200-2400 was more "serious". There used to be a 15 minute news at 1800
Sundays followed by "World Church News" 1815-1830!
