The Nova offshoot station KISS FM was a casualty of the raid and didn\u2019t return until later in the year but Super Nova helped absorb additional advertising over the summer and early autumn. This recording from that time begins with Colm Hayes winding up his drivetime show and telling listeners that the service will split after the 1900 news: current affairs show <em>Dublin Today<\/em> on AM and Denis Murray\u2019s <em>Rock Show<\/em> on FM. News is read by Sybil Fennell and commercial breaks include the high-level agency adverts associated with Nova. There\u2019s also mention of the station\u2019s \u00a36,000 giveaway that would be won at the end of August. The beginning of the <em>Rock Show<\/em> is heard after the news.  &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The recording was made on 24<sup>th<\/sup> August 1983 between 1845 and 1915 from 88.2 FM. It is from the Skywave Tapes Collection.
