    Zenith Classic Rock is back on air, on 103.8FM, from New Year's Day.

    From studios in Waterford City, broadcasting to the entire South-East.

    There is a thread in the 'radio' section of Boards, but as its a Waterford-based station I thought I'd give the heads-up here.

    There is absolutely no reason in this day and age you can't listen to any station you want,anywhere!

    I agree, but its down to the BCI that the south east have very poor choice

    i'd like you to change your name, its to close to mine and everyone knows i'm a beat man :)

    I heard 4FM could not broadcast in Waterford City and County because of objections from WLR, the only city in Ireland where it doesn't broadcast.

    Hope Zenith reaches Dungarvan.

    thats great news that its back again,hope that it stays this time-or WLR might object again!

    Well Zenith has only a temporary license, so enjoy it while you can!

    It came on at midnight, 103.8.

    Great music so far!

    Is the output the same as last year as it seems stronger (it could be that my co-ax antenna is in a different spot), its mono though.....

    Receiving it loud and clear in Dungarvan. Finally have a decent radio station to listen to while driving.

    Good luck with Zenith....less is more tho guys...easy on the dj's ;) More music please! "We dont need no education" as the song goes! Less of your fave tracks and a bit more variety than last year.:)
    ps. I heard Diana Ross last year???????!!!!! :eek:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 88,978 ✭✭✭✭mike65


    They are prolly a bit excited! :)

    More heavy stuff is needed though.

    And you may hear her again - but only from her album produced and orchestrated by Donald Fagen!

    Thanks for the opinion tho, all are taken on board!

    So I'm told!

    Was listening to the best part of the day today. Great programming and heard a fantastic version of Freebird.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 113 ✭✭freebird23


    was out and about in the car for a bit and each track played was cool by me , ya dig.:);)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 478 ✭✭wellbutty


    Listened to this myself today and I must give credit where it's due. This region needs more choice than WLR, KCLR, South East and the awful Britney Spears FM (Beat).

    We NEED Zenith and for more than 10 weeks!!! Keep up the great work all.

    Listened for a good bit of today and it really is a fantastic station. This needs a permanent licence.

    Premiata Forneria Marconi! Been years since I heard that (suspect I have it on a C90 mixtape somewhere)
