3AW is a talkback radio station based in Melbourne, Australia, owned by Nine Entertainment. It broadcasts on 693 kHz AM. It began transmission on 22 February 1932 as Melbourne's fifth commercial radio station.[1]
- ^ If one counts Noel Pamberton Billing's 3PB (1925-26) which was a Melbourne commercial radio station that was only on the air for four months, then 3AW would be Melbourne's sixth commercial station.
