Sattler, who made headlines after being sacked from 6PR over a controversial interview with former Prime Minister Julia Gillard, passed away at Murdoch Hospice with his wife by his side on Friday.
Audiences slowly warmed to new lineups at commercial stations Triple M and 96FM, as talkback leader Radio 6PR continued its merry march of ratings glory in the third Perth radio ratings survey of 2021.
Ilsley had been at 6PR in roles including Overnights and as host of
The Nightshift.
Now, however, Isley has revealed he will be on air on 6iX from 6pm to midnight on Sundays.
The Chris Isley Project will provide the latest news, sport, entertainment, celebrity guests and ‘forever classic favourites’.
“This will be the only live and local music show on radio in Perth,” the station said, noting Ilsley will also add his own unique brand of humour, warmth and intimate knowledge of Perth to the mix.
Evan Broadway, general manager of 6iX, hinted there could be more to come.
