***BRAIDWOOD FM TAKES SYDNEY- 1 SEPTEMBER 2025***
Braidwood is being received in Sydney by Billy Bob. This may be the northernmost spot that we can be received on at least a semi-regular basis. Distance is about 178 km as the kookaburra flies.
You can see the CBD from this location as well as south to the Southern Highlands.

It's nearly that time again.
