    Without doubt BBC Radio 1.Plays alot of hip hop and for chat theres the Chris Moyles show,the dirtiest thing to be found on the airwaves before 9 o clock.Hes fcukin hilarious:D

    i really only ever listen to the radio at night in bed..

    which involves:
    here comes the night and headphones on today fm
    after that phantom/jazz and xfm fight it out for the coveted 1am to 2:30am listening slot.. and if all 3 of them suck at that particular time whatever cd is in the player gets a spin..

    and the odd time i dont have my minidisc with me in the car i listen to phantom.

    Loadsa radio channels from 856 - 918!

    BBC Radio isn't listed on Irish EPG but can be manually tuned (maybe Mossy knows the BBC frequency?)

    Some of the radio channels I listed aren't on the satellite Sky use (Astra 2) but are on Astra 1 (sunshine live, Sputnik, Radio Caroline)

    Not a massive radio fan, but when i do turn it on it'll be tuned to phantom FM, and maybe 2fm, depending what's on :)

    Keith Fletcher - cheeky búgger. Did you hear him this evening? First time I've heard him in a long time.
    Listener Request "Will you please play X."
    KF - "Nope"

    Don't listen to radio much cause there are no hard rock/metal stations available to me without turning on Sky. And then that brings it into the living room where someone's ALWAYS watching telly.

    Used to listen to Talk Radio at night before it became TalkSportSportSportweinterruptthisphonecalltobringyouSportSportSport Radio. Liked James Whale's show, and then Ian Collins. The guy who had Ian Collins' slot before that was funny too.

    you lucky, lucky people in dub who can pick up lotsa different stations, alt stations, etc...we only have a few good radio stations here in cork. freak fm is good enough when you can pick it up, but by far the best has to be Cork Campus Radio, 97.4fm.....not just because i'm an alt DJ on it, mind! :D;)
