1611xx am broadcast the Coburg v Bendigo game, but at half time the coverage stopped and they just played music, does anyone know what happened??

Pretty disappointing from a Coburg supporters point of view as we were down at half time then missed out on us firing home to win by 8 goals.
 
Hi Guys.

On behalf of 1611 AM I want to apologize for the drop-out during Sunday's Broadcast of the Coburg & Bendigo game.

We've had some tech problems the last 3 Sundays and to make it worse last Sunday we had our normal tech working for SEN that day and our Saturday Tech/Jack of all trades wasn't at Coburg for the 2nd half, having to set up for the Ice Hockey for it's 4.35pm broadcast.

As Murphy's law would have it, when he wasn't at Coburg we went off air and the Callers were not aware of the problem or did not know how to fix it.

I know myself how to fix it, but I'm only with the Saturday team, not the Sunday team - it's a behind the scene political thing.

However we also had a major malfunction on Saturday - that however has been fixed during the week.

Anyway we are lucky this week as we don't have to call, with 1611 AM taking the 5RPH feed for the State Game.

Mind you, though we are an amateur station we should never allow this happen.

Though I'm only a caller/producer of the Saturday call, I offer my apologies for these non-broadcasts, and hope we can offer you a more professional broadcast in the future.

(P.S. If anyone knowns someone that would want to do a $14,000 long term sponsor deal so we can get CODECS for a better delay free broadcast, I'd love to meeet them!!!)
