By the autumn of 1990, the twin services of WABC Gold and WABC Hot Hits had resumed from Inishowen in Co. Donegal close to the border with Co. Derry. The hot hits service had been suspended for a few months since the summer due to a shortage of staff but was later reinstated. In this recording, Tina James presents the afternoon drive programme. The emphasis is on the chart music with a minimum of talk although there are plenty of local adverts. The final news bulletin of the day is read by Declan Gill at 1700 and is shared with the Gold service.
The recording is courtesy of Ian Biggar and was made from 101.7 FM on 10th October 1990 between 1645-1825.
