History.
2NN Classic Hits FM was founded by Craig Allen and first went to air in 2014. It was a part of a national network of narrowcast radio stations playing classic hits music. The network included Classic Hits stations in Orange, Wollongong, Mudgee, Mid North Coast, Bowral, Wagga and Taree. There were other branding variations on the network including Oldies FM and Air FM in Penrith and a shortwave radio station called Ozyradio
Hunter TV was formed in 2014 with the intent to gain a community television licence to broadcast on free-to-air digital terrestrial television in Newcastle, with the station going live online on 1 March 2014. However, their initial application for a community television licence from the Australian Communications and Media Authority, and later appeals, were rejected due to uncertainty surrounding the future of community television. Hunter TV later reinforced their online services, becoming a community-orientated live streaming and video on demand service.
In September 2020 2NN split from the Classic Hits FM network and merged with Hunter TV forming a new station `Newy 87.8 FM`. The merged entity creates audio content for radio and video content for their video on demand service.
The station broadcasts from a number of narrowcast transmitters across Newcastle.
Stars of Newcastle.
Hunter TV was one of the founding partners who helped launch the Cancer Council's `Stars of Newcastle` event by promoting and producing video content for the initiative. Hunter TV also provided project management and consulting services to the event organisers. During Hunter TV's tenure, the event raised over $465,000 for the charity.
