3PB was Melbourne's second B-Class radio station, opening in September 1925, after 3UZ and before 3DB. The station was originally going to be named 3WR, World Record Company, but that callsign was already being used by 3WR in Wangaratta, which commenced broadcasting on 1 December 1924, and has now evolved into FM station Triple M Goulburn Valley. The original 3PB broadcast between the hours of 8.00 and 10.00 pm, with a power of 1,500 watts.

3PB was Melbourne's second B-Class radio station, opening in September 1925, after 3UZ and before 3DB. The station was originally going to be named 3WR, World Record Company, but that callsign was already being used by 3WR in Wangaratta, which commenced broadcasting on 1 December 1924, and has now evolved into FM station Triple M Goulburn Valley. Most Australian B-Class stations were renamed as Commercial stations in 1930, but 3PB had closed down prior to that date. (This early station has no links whatsoever with the currently-existing 3PB which commenced in 1994 - 3PB now being the official call sign for the Melbourne outlet for ABC NewsRadio.) The original 3PB broadcast between the hours of 8.00 and 10.00 pm, with a power of 1,500 watts. (en) |
