Radio 2CH Pty Ltd was formed in 1989 between the NSW Council of Churches Broadcasters (26%) and Amalgamated Wireless Australasia (74%). In 1995 CCB sold its shares in 2CH to Radio Superhighway Pty Ltd, now known as Macquarie Radio Network. In 2011, a Deed of Trust was executed between the NSW Council of Churches and CCB, creating a Broadcasting Committee which integrates the broadcasting activities of the two bodies. CCB and the Broadcasting Committee meet conjointly.
In 2015 the Macquarie Radio Network merged with the Fairfax Radio network to form the Macquarie Media Network, which required them to divest themselves of 2CH. In January 2017, 2CH was sold to a consortium of Oceania Capital Partners, Glenn Wheatley and John Williams. In June 2020, it was sold to Pacific Star Network, who switched it to a DAB+ only channel, before it went off air in June 2022.

Th buildings at Liverpool were transferred to the Grammar School with the exception of the chapel. The school opened with between 30 and 40 day students and boarders in July 1889. Mr W. Basil Worsfold M.A. was the Headmaster, followed by Mr R.F. Irvine. In December 1892 Mr Irvine informed the trustees that he could not meet the school's costs, and he resigned in 1893. The buildings were placed into the charge of a caretaker, and the rents from the farm lands were sent to the College in Newtown.
