Isn't RTÉ Gold on the DAB radio?  (it's on-line as well as the other RTÉ DAB 
stations, etc.)  But on analogue radio even RTÉ is *too dependent* on ads - 
which interrupt the flow.  When it was obvious RTÉ was going current events 
programming all morning and afternoon with the exception of ronan Collins's 
slot, quite a long time ago now, they could (and probably should) have done 
this  type of 'third channel', as I thought back in the 90's.  or, does this 
really mean that 4FM however commercial won't be able to cut it?

Hi Tony.

Yes there is a gap there for a good oldies music station.

Hard to see how all these stations can survive all the not so good news
we are getting at present.

Think my radio would be in the bin if it wasn't for the likes of Dublin
South and West community stations and the likes that carry a wide range
of special interest programs without the constant barrage of adds you
get on the bigger outfits.

All the best

Tony
