Me being a teenager from the 70s I was catered to quite well for a while by AM Radio Hauraki. But lately they have been slipping in 'other' music that I don't like.
Like a conspiracy, at the same time, Solid Gold, whom I laughed at as stupid 60s music or soft 70s music, have upped their game to the likes of Led Zep. and Floyd and co. and seem to be filling the void Hauraki have created?
Wassup?

The Rock at home,car except weekends when usually on sundays switch to Hauraki.

Shit I thought that about Hauraki vs Solid shite,but a week ago a contractor had his radio on solid gold,and was good,better than I thought/remembered,most of the anouncers seemed to have huge egos from living in the past.

OMG: I'm surrounded by bogans!!

I listen to all sorts of music, but when it comes to the radio I listen to George FM. They play a lot of kiwi tunes, ads are kept to a minimum and they don't lose the plot with their play-list like the rock, hauraki etc....If I can't get George though, then it's the rock for me

The Rock or Hauraki

commercial radio is junk. I listen to online radio and record it to mp3 and play it in the car.

Much much much better.

I had the workshop radio tunes to Coast when I was in Auckland - it's a pity there is no dedicated jazz station,and Coast did a bit of jazz and swing.

Cool Blue was the best radio station ever when it was going - no adds,no DJ,just cool music all day.First to have an online play list too.

The Rock. Did not even know there was anything else??

Hauraki or the Rock...I flick from one to the other whenever a U2 track comes on...

**Badger8** · 19th April 2008, 09:13

Used to only listen to the rock, but they're not as good as they used to be (still bloody good most of the time tho).
Now the radio in the workshop is switched between the Rock and Hauraki when a crap song comes on, or they talk for too long

Mostly the rock at work and home. The no repeat workday thing is good,although the do seem to play the same/very similar "playlist" most days

**"D" FZ1** · 19th April 2008, 12:42

The "ROCK" 93.0 in the Waikato

**Str8 Jacket** · 19th April 2008, 12:45

The Rock mostly but Radio Hauraki others....

Radio Live but not by choice!

Reception is poor here and there is a local repeater that beams a couple of stations back down into the valley.

I can only pick up Radio Live, damn it. (talkback is crap)
