2EL is an Australian radio station, owned by Bill Caralis's Broadcast Operations Group. It is licensed to Orange, New South Wales, and transmits on 1089khz on the AM band. BOG purchased the station from AMI during 2005.
The station was opened as 2GZ on October 31, 1935, and vacated by 2GZ on September 14, 1996.
It is a relay of BOG's Sydney station 2SM, however, it has announced that it will take the John Laws morning show from 2UE, in light of Macquarie Bank-owned 2GZ dropping the program in favour of Macquarie's own networked show with Charles Wooley.
Incidentally, 2EL broadcasts on 2GZ's old frequency of 1089AM. Another co-incidence is that when 2GZ was at 1089, John Laws had worked at the station as well.
