Update: newsmedia reports that Senator Nick Xenophon is preparing to introduce a private member's bill to reinstate Radio Australia shortwave broadcasts to the Northern Territory, PNG, and parts of the South Pacific.

This season in the Kimberly we really missed listening to the ABC.

Its demise has certainly been sad for us.
