I'm Stephen Richardson. I love life and embrace the simple old values of life. Joined the station about five years ago. Like most forms of music, history, motorcycling and travel, having grownup with them. I've lived and worked in the highlands all of my life. Love entertaining and hearing from my radio audiences.

I'm Andrew Sinclair. After being a farmer, a shipping executive and a magazine publisher, it was only natural that I should then become an amateur radio presenter. My program on Sunday morning seeks to entertain and inform. Entertainment comes in the form of popular music from the 60's and 70's and items of a humorous nature derived from local, national and international sources. Information is also obtained from a variety of publications and reflects issues currently in the news as well as items of an historical nature, that may have some relevance to the present.

James Thomas is a 53 year old father of 3 and stepfather to another 3. I'm currently back at school and halfway through a degree in Communication at Wollongong Uni. I've been with Highland FM forever - I began as 'Talent' on John Sider's Saturday Show back in 1988, became fascinated with radio, learned how to panel and - well, here I am, part of the furniture. James brings you ‘J.T.’s Drive’ on Friday afternoon at 5.00 pm

Colin Veale retired to the Southern Highlands in 2001. Col hosts a Gardening/DIY Show, “THE SHED” 9 am - 12 noon each Saturday and the Sunday morning, ‘Highway To Heaven’ program.  Col also keeps the station computer’s running and maintained. His other interests are Model Railways and Gardening.

Nigel Wyse conceived of the ‘Magical Mystery Tour’ in 1995, dedicated to ‘Baby Boomer’ music. Since ‘being a singer in a Rock and Roll band’ in high school, he has always loved music and public presentation
