Bauer killed Wave 105 and sacked most of their loved presenters, for GHR. The connection to the community is gone. This account does not claim to be Wave 105.

Away from #Wave105, it is important to realise the amount of reasons to hate @bauermedia. They stripping all their remaining local stations of identity, sacking most presenters on Scala Radio to cut costs, and are ageists. All while building a new HQ, money must be tight 🙄 (1/2)

They've done this to my account from the very start, but nice to see it on paper 🤣 The big platforms seem to silence our opinions on these matters, don't know what more they want me to do to clarify I am not #Wave105 😭

...nor will I listen to any of their other radio stations or buy any of their magazines (and I regularly took several of them)
If anyone else is interedted in boycotting the media thrust upon us by these meglomaniacs, this is a list of their brands:-

As they sack DJs, and go presenter free on shows whilst making up excuses like people want to hear less talking, they pay @RealKenBruce and @simonmayo six (possibly seven!) figure salaries, and destroy local stations just so they can continue to afford it! SPREAD THE WORD! (2/2)

Oh, and one more thing. Destroying #Wave105 will lead to less listeners (us) and therefore less of that filthy money @bauermedia. Didn't think that one through, eh? Remember to give us a response to that complaint that finds you breaking regulations sometime too, yeah? @Ofcom x

Can we get this tweet round to see how many people are still seeing this account under the name @GHR_SouthCoast? I have seen people screenshotting my replies and it shows me with this name. Something on Twitter is blocking my account from search and my tweets, thanks ☺️ #Wave105

Hey @bauermedia! Since you are so up the wall destroying local radio at the moment, I am kindly offering my services for free to design a new logo for @greatesthitsuk! In the wise words of Bauer's genius, @garystein, the new name ensures you'll "thrive in years to come" #Wave105

@bauermedia the changes you are making to @wave105radio are awful. Half a million weekly listeners that you have upset. It'll be really interesting to see audience figures after the change. Most I've spoken to are switching off. If you couldn't fund it, you should have sold it!

For anyone refusing to listen to GHR, you ain't missing out! 5 minutes in and I'm already bored. What happened should be a lesson to @Ofcom to stop radio giants like Bauer being able to destroy local radio so easily. I won't be listening again! @GHR_SouthCoast

Alas this maybe too late to save Wave 105 but it is clear action needs to be taken to safeguard local commercial radio and to challenge the likes of Bauer and Global from making unethical and greedy decisions against the wishes of the radio public! Part 2/2

Seeing this now is heartbreaking. The listeners were always there, but Bauer Media, for a change, didn't listen. We will forever know Wave 105, not some nationalised brand!
#Wave105 would like to say thank you. In the latest official audience figures*, total time spent listening in our area (5.01 million hours), shows we now beat ALL other radio, including the big national BBC stations. 425,000 tune in every week. *RAJAR/Ipsos/RSMB Sept ’23 #Wave25
