Heard a Christmas carol while rugged up in a Roxby winter? If you catch one, note the time, date & song, and give us a shout — we’ll send it back to December where it belongs!

Introducing: Opal Hour – A New Weekly Show from the Andamooka Observatory

We’re excited to welcome a brand-new voice to the RoxFM airwaves—Opal Hour with the Andamooka Observatory!

Airing every Tuesday at 4:20 PM, Opal Hour is hosted by Leila and Conan, two passionate outback storytellers and stargazers based in the iconic opal town of Andamooka. Their show brings a unique blend of local colour, cosmic wonder, and community connection right to your radio or streaming app.

What to Expect

Each week, Opal Hour explores a little bit of everything:

  • Astronomy and Night Sky Updates – What’s visible in the sky this week? From meteor showers to moon phases, Leila and Conan have you covered.
  • Opal Tales and Field Stories – Hear fascinating stories from life on the opal fields—funny, mysterious, or just plain dusty.
  • Handpicked Tunes – An eclectic music mix to match the mood of the outback and the cosmos.
  • Community Happenings – Events, shout-outs, and what’s going on around Andamooka and Roxby.

It’s a show that’s equal parts stargazing, storytelling, and laid-back vibes—and it’s unlike anything else on radio.
