[edit] History
[edit] Early years
There is nothing new about the concept of Jewish Radio. Many companies have tried before and most have failed. Jcom Radio was formed by a group of people whose background is in radio. Jcom Radio was founded by six men who met through another Jewish radio station - Shalom FM (now defunct) they are Steve Newton, Jeremy Silverstone, Tony Honickberg, Mike Peters, Ronny Munster and Phil Dave.
Jewish Communications Limited was formed in March 2007. Endless weeks of planning and organizing went into the launch of Jcom Radio. It finally hit the airwaves on 28th November 2007 as an RSL (Restricted Service License). The RSL ran for 4 weeks, broadcasting every Sunday to Thursday 7am - 2am, Friday 7am - 3pm and Saturday 6pm - 2am. Listening figures reached over 100,000. It ceased broadcasting on 101.4FM on 23rd November 2007.
