a dialogue between two person speaking in heavy PRC accent i dun find it creative or funny at all are they trying to bootlick the emerging PRC community here?

recently keep hearing this irritating hydundai radio ad at class 95. the guy keeps shouting goal.

bros just got an civic 1.6, with alpine radio single din, i see that there is an ipod cable in the glove compartment, but i need an USB in as my songs are in a thumbdrive. is this radio unit able to input 1?

Some of them really sound non-man.... the pitch, the choice of expressions etc etc.... No, am not against them, but just gossip here... Who's the G-iest of them all? Who's real and who's 'faked'??

The CD player that came stock in my Sunny is no longer working properly in the sense that the CD loading/unloading mechanism is jammed up. I'm thinking of replacing it, but not anything too pricey... I'm not "audio-phile" so just looking for a normal player and setup. What is the price range, approximately, and best place to get the player and installation done? East side?

I am driving a Swift. This morning while I was washing my car, I realised that the cover that covers the radio antenna which sticks out of the roof has gone missing. Now what is left is just the base and the white antenna with metal coils sticking out. I'm not sure if some itchy finger went to pluck the cover out or it flew off while driving. If I am going to leave it this way, it will rust sooner or later. So I will need to do something about it. Any one knows if I can replace just the cover or do I have to change the whole antenna?

Bros, Does anyone know where to get new Mediacorp Radio decals? I've tried google and the search function but it does not seemed to give me the answer. Thanks for sharing.

Anyone listens to 93.3FM? Heard the latest Volkswagen advertisement, and it lists one of their model as the Cerato. Did my hearing fail me, or is it a mistake by the Radio station? :D

DJ wanted, application welcome... or lets nominate some bros for the job.... what kinda quilification/experience must he have???? Let's see what music to be aired.... from the different eras, we need to choose some favourite groups representative of the time.... starting way back:- 60s:...?? Beatles, Hollies, DeepPurple, Chicago, LedZ.... anymore (limit to say 5-6 groups)??... your take? 70s:..... Eagles, AC/DC, GrandFunk, ......?? 80s??... 09s??....2000s?? ......?? Just put your favourite groups....

The other day, my car's stereo/radio (or whatever it's called these days) decided to throw a tantrum, and "ate" my newly-bought CD when I wanted to try it out. Being an in-built unit, there didn't seem to be an easy way to remove the set to retrive the CD. It looked like a job best left to the professionals. So, I brought the car to the dealer, thinking that they probably knew best what to do. What I didn't expect, however, was to have to drive without a radio. Unfortunately, for some reason, the dealer had to remove the entire stereo/CD player from my car in order to have it looked at, and that has indeed left me without a stereo to tune in to, for the time being. I'm sure most people have the radio on while driving, or at least some music, playing your favourite CDs or even hooking up your new-fangled music players, as I sometimes do. Besides having some aural accompaniment, listening to the radio is also useful for traffic information. Like today, when there was a massive (and I do mean massive) jam on my route to work. I was completely in the dark about it, although thankfully I saw it in time and could still plan an alternative route quickly in my head. Apart from that, driving with no music is actually quite a surreal experience. You hear nothing apart from the engine and road noise. Or, if you drive a Lexus or a Prius, you get total silence. I'm not really a fan of complete silence. It creeps me out somehow. But I guess I'll have to live with that for a while. At least, until I get my stereo (and CD) back.

Nowadays we can easily link the radio in our hp/iPod etc to the in-car sound system and enjoy radio programme..... maybe LTA can rethink and abolish car radio fee?...... or they will still cling on to it to generate more income (not that the amount they charge is great).... ??

hip hip hurray :D :D

Guys, I noticed my radio reception very bad after I installed the Pioneer processor for my Pioneer DVD (4150). Is it related? My installer say the processor will make those noise more audible? True?

Classic rock and/or jazz? Right now I'm listening to 995, its more suitable to me than 905 or 950, but still far from perfect

"What's the meaning of i-d-i-o-s-y-n-c-r-a-s-y? I think the person who coined this word is crazy..." came the unprompted reply before she drifted further into a rambling speech. And that, everyone, was Ris Low's maiden voyage hitting the airwaves as a newly-minted 987FM radio DJ on The Shan, Rozz [& Ris] Show. Fortunately, the bewilderment was nipped in the bud by a swift response from co-host, Shan Wee who stepped in with the denotative meaning [of idiosyncrasy] before turning to his new radio partner to ask if she has any strange habits to tell. "Yes I do. I shave my armpits every morning, otherwise it will overgrow," Ris offered matter-of-factly over an interview with xinmsn during her radio show. This, is a beauty queen fallen from grace, besieged by controversies and her bad 'ingrish-speaking' fashion yet she remains oblivious to the stream of stinging criticism; and instead of scrambling for a shovel and digging a hole to bury herself, it seems she is quietly determining her next move - like, ink a radio DJ contract on a primetime show. It certainly looks like all the bad publicity has done its part to muddy up her resume. News of the ex-beauty queen's co-hosting gig on 987FM broke last week and the station's shocking decision has since drawn flak from several netizens and radio listeners, who feel it is a publicity stunt that, if not managed well, could go terribly wrong. Posted on MediaCorp's message board, forum user 'jeat17141' wrote: "Gawd no no no no no no no. Poor Shan and Rozz; not going to tune in to them as often now. Thank you for ruining one of my favourite radio shows by turning it into a complete joke." When asked to comment on the rationale behind its decision, 987FM Senior Creative Director, Georgina Chang said: "Ris has proven that whatever she does, she gets people talking so she really draws a lot of attention and curiosity and [having her], it is just to spice up the evening drive [show]." Georgina also revealed that the team was appalled at her decision to sign on the controversial ex-beauty queen and despite a slew of negative feedback from the public, she thinks otherwise: "She's not hired for her radio talent but she has a certain reputation and she brings something else to the show. She's not hired for her diction and people are always curious about the things she says so I think it'll be highly entertaining." When asked about how she would help "to spice up the evening show", Ris replied: "I'm funny, witty and I'm real. I think people want to hear real stuff." Echoing Ris's stance is Shan, who was extremely sweet toward his rookie partner, and even provided Ris an on-the-spot diction coaching peppered with encouragement. He said: "Rozz and I have been doing a radio co-host show for about three years now [and] that's quite a long time so I'm quite happy to have a change and it's just fun." "Personally, I think that personality is the most important thing when it comes to the different factors that make up a DJ so Ris's personality is her main asset." In contrast to the easygoing nature of her regular partner, Rozz appeared a little awkward, at times, certain moments during the show when Ris candidly declared: "I'm settling down pretty well but Rozz seems to be unhappy with me". Admittedly, Rozz shared her initial hesitation about her new co-host but assured us that she is "ok now". She said: "Ris is very new. Of course she brings a different dimension to radio and obviously we are banking on her popularity but chemistry-wise, I think we'll need a little more time [because] Shan and I actually took a year and a half to get to a comfortable stage where we are now. So yes, I'm a bit apprehensive, to be honest." To which, the excited rookie partner quipped: "We'll make this work Rozz, don't worry." If Ris was feeling stress or nervous, she hid it well for she was a picture of calmness despite hosting a 'live' radio show for the first time with zilch experience. When we asked Ris on her thoughts and emotions on her first day on the job, she replied coolly: "It's good for me and it's feels like home." Well, don't write her off just yet. Take it with a bag of salt, if you must but we hope Ris knocks the socks off her listeners and you may discover yet more reasons or even more of her idiosyncrasies, to love - or hate - the controversial media darling. She was, after all, named CNNGo's 25 most influential people in Asia (2009) and that, to us, is totally boomz, you know.

Hi bros, is there such a thing as ICE setup optimized for radio play? I don't listen to CDs and purely radio only (Class 95). I am no audiophile but I could a major difference between the stock system on my old Getz and the current Subaru. What sort of setup should I be looking at for radio or its pure time wasting?

can bro/sis list down what are the better boleh land radio english and chinese radio channels that are receivable here? kinda of bored with the mediacorpse stations, esp on weekends.

I recently purchased a second hand ride and transferred owndership on 23 July 2009. Its road tax subsequently expired on 11 Sept which I duly renewed it with the required Vehicle Radio License. Just last week, I received a REMINDER notice from MDA demanding payment for Vehicle Radio License from 23 July 2009 to 11 Sept 2009. I was kinda perturbed. #1, I did not receive any prior notice and this notice is a reminder? #2, When I purchased the car with its road tax and vehicle radio license fully paid till 11 Sept, why should I pay for it again? Wouldnt it be double collection? I questioned the customer service gal at MDA and she could not respond. After a few minutes on hold, she came back tot me and said, LTA would have refunded the difference to the previous owner, so no double collection. I did not take her words as at the same time, I sold my car and paid the road tax and Vehicle Radio License till November. In so far, no refunds, nothing! Are we snooked? Are we paying double? Guys, though the amount is small, Please check before payment. I have written an official letter to MDA for their explanation.

To fellow Avante drivers, Need help in setting radio stations on my HU (Pioneer DEH-P5150UB). Been trying for a long time to no avail and I don't understand the instructions booklet. Can any avante drivers help?

Does any one know what is the radio frequency for the F1 commentary? I have a headset bought at Sepang 3 years ago but could not receive the commentary last year in Singapore F1. Does the radio frequency changes at every track and every year? Can a normal radio be used to tune to the commentary radio frequency? Thanks!!!

Just received a notice from MDA saying I nvr paid my car radio license from Nov 2008 til this May and got additional $10 late payment fee.Thought radio licence is paid when I renew road tax?Wat the fish is going on??? Anyone can shed some light on this matter?
