Although I’m a younger generation but simply adore this radio! It’s my number 1 to go to, only occasionally I would switch to Magic or Smooth, for half an hour or so, if I don’t like the current melodies.
I didn’t give 5 stars only because I’m so upset with the news reader lady! The voice is lovely, but as hard as I try I don’t understand half of what she is saying, and that really is annoying.
Sad - and destroying - feature of our days: diversity over quality. I remain hopeful that common sense will finally take over.

Excellent radio ststion
Excellent radio station for our age group. They play great music which we have on from the moment we get up in the morning. Been listening to Boom from the start and can't imagine life without Boom.

Superb
I first came across this most excellent radio station a couple of years ago, and I have recommended it to several people since, who found it equally as excellent.
I've listened to so many DAB radio stations over the years, and they all have them same tired old format of lots of talking about stuff and fluff. Then there is the repeating of the same songs. Greatest Hits radio is a classic for this what with Curtis Mayfield, Kool and the Gang, etc.
Absolute radio used to be quality but now it's people like Frank Skinner chatting poo with his posh cronies.
Boom radio has likeable, personable people like Diddy David Hamilton, Judi Spiers, Roger Day, Graham Dene and my personal favourite, Little Nicky Horne.
The format is fresh with really good tracks us "oldies" know and then stuff that is hardly ever heard and the presenters try and give you the background of the songwriters or the song and sometimes their own personal experiences of their days back then.
They have also brought in Boom Rock now, which, if anything, does need some more presenters, but is still very good.
Please, please, please don't ever change Boom as you bring a smile to my face and a warmth to my heart.

Addicted to Boom Radio 97,3 . Listen to the thousand dollar minute contest a few times every day . Stu Jeffries is most personable and I doubt there isn't a listener that doesn't want to sit down and have a coffee with him . Great sense of humor . I'd take him out to lunch . Roy .
