On Air
102.2 Smooth Radio played classic hits aimed at listeners aged 40 and over, alongside Jazz music overnight. The overnight jazz was dropped from the station from August 2010 and simulcast with other stations in the Smooth network.
Smooth's jingle package was produced by Bespoke Music, with production initially voiced by Sean Bolger - although he was replaced in mid-2008 with Gina Mellotte.
Local news was broadcast from 6am - 7pm with headlines at peak times; after 7pm, an hourly in-house national bulletin was broadcast from the GMG News Hub in Manchester until midnight.

Famous quotes containing the word air:
“I date the end of the old republic and the birth of the empire to the invention, in the late thirties, of air conditioning. Before air conditioning, Washington was deserted from mid-June to September.... But after air conditioning and the Second World War arrived, more or less at the same time, Congress sits and sits while the presidentsor at least their staffsnever stop making mischief.”
—Gore Vidal (b. 1925)
“The nonchalance and dolce-far-niente air of nature and society hint at infinite periods in the progress of mankind.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
