Successful 2bbb Broadcast From Global Carnival
After a succesful testing of the Wirefree broadcast from 2BBB's OB-1 (Outdoor Broadcast Van) at the Organic Growers' market, the station geared up for 30 hours' live broadcasting from this year's Bellingen Global Carnival.
From 6pm Friday October 3rd till 10pm Sunday October 5th Tark's team of intrepid volunteers gave our listeners a taste of what was on at the Global. 30 hours of live outside broadcasting is no mean feat. The interviews with artistes, the vox pop's and the music were all of top quality and were greatly appreciated by the many listeners who couldn't make it to the Showgrounds.
A big thank you to Tark and Trevor from 20/20 Imagineering for their big effort in making the broadcast possible, as well as all the other volunteers and community organisations who have contributed to the upgrade and outfitting of the OB Van.

We are moving into a new technological era, and we will be facing many new and challenging innovations in coming years. The long expected energy crisis is upon us, and the near future will also be a time of uncertain macro- and micro-economic performance. There will be some difficult decisions for 2bbb. But I am confident that all those involved with the station will manage the situation well.
