Veterans back on the airwaves as 4FM launches

THEY might have struggled to climb on a trailer to promote Ireland’s new radio station, but the stars of 4FM made a much smoother transition to the airwaves yesterday.

Veteran broadcasters including Gareth O’Callaghan, Derek Davis, Tom McGurk and Jimmy Greeley celebrated being back on air with the launch of the first multi-city radio station.

4FM has a licence to broadcast to the Dublin commuter belt as well as Cork, Limerick, Galway and Clare.
