This may be so, but 96.6 isn't licenced for Watford, is it?
The whole of 96.6's TSA is served by Heart London and St Albans and Hemel are also in Heart Home Counties. Still, if people want a slightly more local Heart from Watford than from Leicester Square or further up up the M1, then so be it. |

Is there any point in using the radio now? My work plays Heart, not allowed to use headphones AND my girlfriend loves it.

Has anybody noticed that Jason Donovan nearly always kicks his show off with a Wham tune?

Judging by their music I would say it won't matter one bit. What's all THIS about? 11:39 Dead Ringer For Love Meatloaf 11:49 One Vision Queen 11:53 All Time Low The Wanted 11:57 The Tears Of A Clown Smokey Robinson & The Miracles

Yes if the radio station gives them a good reason to but if the website is awful when they do log on it'll be twice as hard to get them to log on again. |

You can play 60s next to 10s, as Radio 2 prove to great effect, but not just ANY songs - they have to be credible. |

My point is that two old noisy rock songs into The Wanted will NOT work. And to follow it up with a 60's mowtown song is just too extreme.
I know this is off topic but who EXACTLY are they targertting? |

The Wanted have been playing on Heart for the past three weeks at least. But then you wouldn't know that as you don't listen, eh?

Welol, the split links on Heart home counties Sunday morning really took the biscuit!
Just before 1100, on 103.3 mk we said hello to Jennifer in Bletchley who is walking the dog. At the same time on 96.9 Bedford we said hello to Jennifer in St Neots who is walking the dog. Didnt hear Northants or luton, but suspect she was walking the dog in towcester and Dunstable as well. This is radio of the worst, most cynical kind, treating the listeners as idiots.... And they want to rival radio 2...you have to be joking.... |

I know this is off topic but who EXACTLY are they targertting? Smaller stations play a mix of hits & oldies. That is the format that always works the best. There is nothing wrong with any of those oldies on that station at all. All great songs that did well in the charts in their day & people still love and all sound good on the radio The Wanted are just another "now" group with a mediocre song that won't be played in 2 years time by anyone except Heart who have an interest in it. For now though it's the #1 song so they play it. As for the website...good on them. Anything that hilights to ordinary people the disgraceful actions of Heart & Ofcom has to applauded. Personally, i would have gone further & named the stations that were no longer local The objections raised are because Heart are trying to keep ordinary people in the dark as much as possible. |
