Calling Radio Massive: your "crowd-sourced" input requested

Hello, 'The Massive'

As the powers that be toss land mines around the BBC as part of a "streamlining" of the corporation, it is local radio stations that will be among the most seriously affected.

It's not all "cats up trees" and "jam tombolas" on local radio (although there is a bit of that). Often their DJs are the first to find and champion new music in the local area.

I'm going to do a piece for The Word on this (and why these cuts are bad for local radio and local music scenes) and want you to suggest your regional BBC DJs who go way beyond the call of duty here.

Who are, to not-quite-coin a term, your local heroes (in a BBC DJ-ular sense)?

Thank you.
