Re: RJR 98.3
I don't think any of the long standing black community station's had started that early the only one I know of then was JBC and possibly DBC may have still been on sometimes?

Wasn't it "Rock To Rock" that came out of Wood Green(ish)?

Re: RJR 98.3
Your right lightning was January 1989 but as I said before they have a break and they had 3 years off from about 1997 till about 2000?
