Friends of a Facebook page “Adelaide Remember When” have shared details of when SAFM, back in 1987 started to dominate the ratings.

It was The Morning Zoo with John Vincent, Grant Cameron and Anne Fulwood.

SAFM commenced broadcasting in 1980 with a call sign of 5SSA and an original on-air ID of “Triple SA-FM” which was soon replaced by “Double SA-FM”. It was the first commercial radio station to broadcast on the FM band in Adelaide. Later, it changed its name to “SAFM”.

Throughout the late 1980s, most of the 1990s and the early 2000s, it was the highest rating station in Adelaide but in 2005 it dropped back to third position.

It’s now called “Hit 107”.

Watch Vinnie and Grant Cameron from the morning zoo and a very young Anne Fulwood reading the news.
