96fm (Perth radio station)

96FM (call-sign: 6NOW) is a commercial FM radio station broadcasting in Perth, Western Australia and is owned by the Australian Radio Network (ARN). The station, formerly owned by Fairfax Media, transferred ownership to Australian Radio Network in March 2015.

History

96FM began broadcasting on 96.1 MHz on 8 August 1980 as Perth's first commercial FM radio station. The first record played at the 4pm launch was "FM (No Static at All)" by Steely Dan, with Gordon O'Byrne the first live "jock" to air. Gary Roberts was its first Programme Director.

Throughout the 1980s, 96FM provided groundbreaking innovation for Perth radio listeners. In 1981, the highly successful Gold Pass was launched. This provided holders access to obtain discounts at retailers for goods such as CD's, clothing, concert tickets, car audio & security to name but a few. The rationale for launching the Gold Pass was so the station could raise extra revenue (minimum was a $5000 spend) without doing OB's (outside broadcasts).

Big Hero 6 is the first Disney animated film to feature Marvel Comics characters, whose parent company was acquired by The Walt Disney Company in 2009. Walt Disney Animation Studios created new software technology to produce the film's animated visuals.

Specifications

Hardware

The Galaxy Note 3's design was intended to carry a more upscale, "premium" look in comparison to previous Samsung devices. Although it carries a similarly polycarbonate-oriented design to other recent Samsung devices, the Galaxy Note 3 has a faux metallic bezel and a rear cover made of plastic leather with faux stitching. With a thickness of 8.3 mm (0.33 in), it is slightly thinner than the Galaxy Note II, and is also slightly lighter. The LTE and China version of the Galaxy Note 3 (N9005) uses a 2.3 GHz quad-core Snapdragon 800 chip, while the international GSM-only model (N9000) uses an octa-core Exynos 5420, consisting of four 1.9 GHz Cortex-A15 cores and four 1.3 GHz Cortex-A7 cores. Testing has shown similar performance for both models."[20]".  The device also includes 3 GB of RAM, a 5.7-inch 1080p Super AMOLED display, a 13-megapixel rear-facing camera capable of filming videos in 1080p at 60 fps and 4K resolution at 30 fps (capped at 5 minutes), 16, 32 or 64 GB of internal storage, and a 3200 mAh battery.
