The FM 89.9 frequency in the Windsor Hawkesbury licence area (Windsor RA1) will be shared between four groups for the next 12 months under a new temporary broadcasting licence (TCBL) decision handed down by the ACMA this month.
As well as the current three groups who shared the frequency this year, another group has been added.
AsWindsor-Hawkesbury Community Radio awaits news from the ACMA on the future of the 89.9 frequency, the group is continuing to build towards what they hope will be better program opportunities next year.

Aspirant Hawkesbury region broadcast group Hawkesbury Gold has been plagued by infighting this week, which spilt over into the public arena via its web and social media platforms today.
Early this morning a message was put on the Hawkesbury Gold website announcing that a range of shows had pulled the plug on their dealings with the aspirant group.
Last Wednesday Hawkesbury community station Hawkesbury Gold went to air.
President Rod Rose congratulated his team and said, "In just four weeks we had to locate a site for our transmission tower, obtain custom-made aerials and a transmitter, arrange the hardware and software for broadcasting, and create programs to run 24/7. We only got the electricity turned on at our transmission site 15 minutes before we were due on air."
