History
The station is owned by the Lincs FM Group. The station started as two separate licences one for Doncaster and one for Bassetlaw. In its bid to win the licence two "RSL's" were aired, the first from above a well known bakery on Frenchgate, and the second from a former private residence further from the town centre. A number of well known and established presenters were used for the RSL's, including John Marshall (Lincs FM), Craig Strong (Trent, Lincs, Century, Gem), Kenny Hague, (Trent, Leicester Sound, Fosseway), and Mike Barge (Bargey). The bid was obviously successful.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“The principle that human nature, in its psychological aspects, is nothing more than a product of history and given social relations removes all barriers to coercion and manipulation by the powerful.”
—Noam Chomsky (b. 1928)
“In the history of the human mind, these glowing and ruddy fables precede the noonday thoughts of men, as Aurora the sun’s rays. The matutine intellect of the poet, keeping in advance of the glare of philosophy, always dwells in this auroral atmosphere.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“To history therefore I must refer for answer, in which it would be an unhappy passage indeed, which should shew by what fatal indulgence of subordinate views and passions, a contest for an atom had defeated well founded prospects of giving liberty to half the globe.”
—Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
