History

Star 106.3 was established as Mix FM in 1999 by RG Capital, headed by Reg Grundy. In 2003, the station was sold alongside sister station Sea FM (now Zinc 100.7) to Macquarie Regional RadioWorks. However, Macquarie was forced to sell two stations to ensure diversity in the market, and in 2005 Mix FM and Sea FM were sold to Prime Media Group. In 2007, Mix FM was rebranded as 106.3, later rebranded as 106.3FM in 2009.

In 2013, Prime Media Group sold its radio division to Grant Broadcasters. In May 2016, the station rebranded as Star 106.3, bringing it in line with sister stations in Mackay and Cairns.

gollark: If you want to look at the JSON parser code it might help.
gollark: Er... hmm... I'll need to add better error messages too so the bug can actually be debugged.
gollark: I can work on it further and see what the issue is (assuming you are on the latest version…) later.
gollark: It does not break JSON. It breaks the noncompliant JSON parser.
