History

The first Triple M station was 2MMM Sydney beginning broadcasting in 1980.

In 1988, Melbourne radio station 3EON FM 92.3 was taken over by 2MMM and changed its callsign to 3MMM and moved to 105.1 MHz in November 1988.

Brisbane radio station FM104 was launched in 1981 and took on the Triple M identity in the late 1980's.

Adelaide radio station 5KA converted from 1197 kHz to 104.7 MHz on January 1, 1990. The station was taken over by Village Roadshow, when then owned Triple M, and they successfully negotiated the purchase of the 5MMM callsign from a community radio station in the early 1990's.

Perth radio station 96FM also carried the Triple M identity in the late 1990's but was then sold to Southern Cross Broadcasting who changed the stations identity back to its original name 96FM.
