Max 80s returns on Newcastle small-scale DAB radio multiplex
Former Manchester digital station Max is relaunching this weekend playing 80s music on DAB in Newcastle.
The station, run by ex-BBC radio executive John Ryan, has hired actor Louise Jameson as the station voice.
Features will include songs from a featured Classic Album each week; 20/20 Eighties Trivia; and games to play along with like the Telly-gram and the fiendish chart guessing game Maxematics.
You won’t hear the news of today on Max. Instead, re-live the top stories of each day in the 80s broadcast on the hour.
John says: “Max is the 1980s radio station for people who were there, back then. For me, it meant the years between 12 and 22 – leaving home, first jobs, first loves – and three very happy years living and working in Newcastle!
“Give us a try and relive your 80s memories – with Max.”
Max 80s will launch at 1200 on Sunday 1 December 2024 on DAB and online at max80s.co.uk. The station previously existed from 2015 to 2020 on the Manchester small-scale multiplex.
