Skyline Community Radio - Current Ownership

Current Ownership

Skyline Gold was born out of the ashes of Skyline Community Radio in 2010, when new management took over.


OFCOM granted a new 5 year licence in 2011 and also allowed the station to enforce its oldies format of playing mainly 50s-80s era music weekdays between 7am and 7pm, and to change its name to Skyline Gold. Specialist shows - country, rock, rock'n'roll etc. continue to be aired during weekends and evenings


In its short existence Skyline Gold has directly, through publicity, found apprenticeships for over thirty young people (Carillion Construction Training), and helped raise thousands of pounds for charity, through publicising charitable events, including the charity soul events held at the Concorde Club in Southampton by DJ Paul Mico.

Famous quotes containing the words current and/or ownership:

    You are the current of the frozen stream,
    Shadow invisible, ambushed and vigilant flame.
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    They had their fortunes to make, everything to gain and nothing to lose. They were schooled in and anxious for debates; forcible in argument; reckless and brilliant. For them it was but a short and natural step from swaying juries in courtroom battles over the ownership of land to swaying constituents in contests for office. For the lawyer, oratory was the escalator that could lift a political candidate to higher ground.
    —Federal Writers’ Project Of The Wor, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
