Key 103

Advantages: Good music, entertaining DJ's, community spirit!
Disadvantages: Adverts

...I listen to the radio a lot, and I'm almost always listening to Key 103. It's a Manchester-based radio station aimed at people around 13 plus, I'd say. Key 103 has a mix of different songs. They play the latest hits, older songs and other songs that aren't as mainstream, unlike a lot of other radio stations. You get a wide variety so there's something for everyone. I don't usually listen at weekends, but here are the list of DJ's on weekdays: 6am-10am - JK and Joel 10am-1pm - Mike Toolan 1pm-4pm - Warren Moore 4pm-7pm - Darren Proctor 7pm-10pm - Jo Good 10pm-2am - James Stannage 2am-6am - Michelle Dignan My favourites are JK and Joel, James Stannage and Jo Good. JK and Joel present the breakfast show. They often have celebrity gossip and discuss/argue about inane things like Footballer's Wives which are actually quite...

Key 103 is music to my ears!

Advantages: Prizes, music, DJ's
Disadvantages: Some adverts can be annoying

...I have been listening to Key103 for as long as I can remember even right back from when it was Piccadilly radio!! The radio station is on the FM frequency and is based in Manchester but can be heard across Greater Manchester including places such as Bolton. This is the radion station I listen too when I can still get the frequency and am within the area for it. Who is it for? Well the station is aimed at everyone really and is ideal for the younger viewers too as they don't tend to make a rude jokes or reference to it. The station probably wouldn't suit the much older listener unless they are into modern music although they do do play some classic pop tunes but not any classical or music earlier than the 70's. Music: As mentioned the station plays a variety of music and generally throughout the day will play mainly pop and dance...

A toast to Kenwood

Advantages: Good price, nice toast, looks good
Disadvantages: None yet

...Debenhams. We had £100 worth as a wedding present and still had £25 left - the fact that it is our third wedding anniversary on 16th April is immaterial! We're not shopaholics then! I thought that it would be expensive at Debenhams but figured that it was worth a look; however I was in for a nice surprise. They had a Kenwood TTP103 four slice toaster in white for £20! So know you know why we needed a toaster, how and why we chose it and where we got it from I'm guessing you'd like to know a bit about it! Features It has a crumb tray into which will drop the crumbs from the toast. It slides out of the base of the toaster so that it can be emptied - I always put the resulting crumbs out for the birds. I also usually turn the toaster upside down and give it a bit of a shake to get the crumbs out that don't fall into the crumb tray...

Review of Kenwood TTP 103

Man's greatest invention = The washing machine?

Advantages: Cheap, lots of functions, looks good for the price
Disadvantages: slow spin, small capacity

...reasonably nice, be easy to use and have delicate wash cycles. Having looked through various websites and catalogues it seemed to me that to be able to accommodate my requirements my choice was to get a fast expensive machine, or a slower cheaper machine. Ever the true Yorkshire woman I opted for the cheaper version, but I wanted a reliable make. So, finally I decided that I liked the look of the Indesit WIL103 which I found on the Comet website for £179 with delivery and connection at £28.95 (I live in a top floor flat, so I was willing to pay anything for someone else to lug it up the stairs!). A week after ordering the machine it arrived and was fitted (actually, it wasn't fitted correctly by the so called 'trained' fitter, but that will be left for another review). The machine itself is a standard size and will fit in a 500mm unit space...

The Spirit of Radio

Advantages: Clear sound, good price...
Disadvantages: None

....? There is also the FM radio selections. Specification are: Power Supply: AC 230V~50Hz - DC 9V [6xaa(LR6)] Output Power: 1.0 Watt x 2 Frequency Range: DAB 174-240 MHz - FM 87.5 ? 108 MHz Weight: 1.16kg We also have real time clock function, headphone jack, battery box and ?interference free.? I like my DABR103 a lot. Like I have said, I was not looking to buy a digital radio, but I did not realise how good they were, and it has brought me back to the world of radio, a place I have missed without really knowing. I grew tired of Radio One and all that, but digital offers so much more and you can select the type of music/talk you want to hear, without having to wait for something good to come on whatever station you may be listening to. I have it on whilst in the kitchen, cooking, or washing up, I have it on whilst I am...

...INTRODUCTION: ******************** Samsung C103 was the first ever microwave that I bought.

Today s Best Music

Advantages: Good music, good presenters, excellent community spirit
Disadvantages: Too many adverts

...Today's best music, Key 103, Manchester. Manchester is probably Britain's second most popular city for media inventions outside London, that's probably why Manchester plays host to one of the best radio stations in this country. The name? Piccadilly Key 103 FM (or Key 103 - as the young at heart like to call it!), owned by EMAP and based in Castlequay just outside Manchester City Centre it is here where the legend begins. Many years ago a station called Piccadilly 1152 was left to roam Manchester's airwaves, it was based in Manchester's Piccadilly Plaza Hotel and remained here till the IRA bomb blast ruined the City Centre in the Summer of 1996. The station mainly played old, classic songs and was actually aimed at a mid thirties audience. The station's sound quality was actually quite poor too. Often you would hear hisses...

Review of 103 FM - Key, Manchester

► The Key to Manchester ◄

Advantages: Great DJs, Music Variety, Very popular
Disadvantages: Cheesy repetitive adverts

...° General Information ° Key 103 is one of the most popular stations in Manchester -- and for a good reason. The station plays the latest music, not just that but old classics and songs which aren't as popular. There's a variety for everyone. They have regular news updates every hour. This includes the latest headlines, which also includes celebrity news. The adverts can be extremely annoying because they're played so often but that's natural for a big commercial radio station. The station must be good considering they have beaten 270 other commercial stations to be awarded the IRN News Coverage Award in 2007. The Key 103 website features a gigs section where you can buy tickets for the hottest venues. Not only does the station have competitions where you can ring or text in but the site also has a competitions section where you...
