The station has a modern glass walled broadcast and production studio inside the regional shopping centre Erina Fair, which has led to the nickname, The Fish Bowl.

The station has a part-time radio journalist position attached to it and is the designated emergency broadcaster for the region.
Famous quotes containing the words central and/or coast:
“For us necessity is not as of old an image without us, with whom we can do warfare; it is a magic web woven through and through us, like that magnetic system of which modern science speaks, penetrating us with a network subtler than our subtlest nerves, yet bearing in it the central forces of the world.”
—Walter Pater (1839–1894)
“Have we even so much as discovered and settled the shores? Let a man travel on foot along the coast ... and tell me if it looks like a discovered and settled country, and not rather, for the most part, like a desolate island, and No-Man’s Land.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
