MEADOWXI Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 If you flick through the Bauer Media channels you will notice that they are usually all playing the same records at the same time. There must be a single producer somewhere actually playing the songs and all the different so called dj's are just waffling on about their own nonsense and not doing anything else in the studio. Have even heard them when they do competitions and it is the same winner on all the different channels and they edit the results so it appears that each dj is interviewing them with the same questions to match the winners answers. If you drive across Scotland on a Saturday or Sunday Northsound 1, Clyde 1, Forth 1 and Tay all go to a single dj for some programs and only changes are for local news and adverts.Their chat is just as crap but it less localised crap 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kennboy1978 Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 Afternoon it's either Central FM (probably the last proper local radio station left) My local station - Camglen isn't too bad sometimes. Stumbled across Radio Saltire (Based in Tranent) one Saturday night, like listening to Tom Wilson on Forth in the early/mid 90's, cracking stuff. Not listened through the week but I think it's pretty varied. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
invergowrie arab Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 You hadn't heard bad radio until you are stuck in the aberfeldy, killin, rannoch triangle and have to listen to heartland FM. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shandon Par Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 I sat in the car and cried the morning Dominik Diamond announced he was jacking in his XFM Scotland breakfast show. Him, Marissa and Scott Shaw churned out such a brilliant show every morning with decent music and general funny stuff. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthernJambo Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 Our office radio has been changed from radio 6 to absolute. The tunes are better (more familiar anyway) but I'm now starting to get annoyed with the c**t that keeps changing the station. It was changed to radio 6 last Thursday and changed again today. Pick something and stick with it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote Programming is mainly aimed at 25 to 65 audience age group... From 6.00am to 6.00pm daily we transmit a "Memorable Hit" format mainly featuring the last 50 years of chart music... So, that's basically everyone except Granny Danger catered for. And what's wrong with music from the 60s? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except NECR is mostly bulletins about coffee mornings in some arsehole village in the arse end of nowhere or a cattle auction. It was on in the office once, it got turned off after the neep presenting told us about a coffee morning scheduled for Saturday being cancelled three times within an hour 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Florentine_Pogen Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 Radio Paradise (California) Fip FM (Radio France) Both stations are commercial free and play wide variety of music with absolute minimal chat. Listen to both via. Apps on iPad. French ladies accents on Fip are also a bonus. [emoji14][emoji76] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willie adie Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 Radio 2 for ken Bruce and Jeremy vine. Breakfast time radio Scotland and drive time. If listening in evenings, get it on .Friday nights radio 2 sounds of the 80s. And of late have been listening to original 106. Quite often 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
