his co-stars also speak (operators, partners) and journalists, as Alfredo Rosso, who believes in " Here Radio Bangkok " be able to find perhaps the continuity "The Ghost Train" (FM Rivadavia, Speaker: Omar Cerasuolo, early '80).
Vinci Douglas disagrees with that view, and I agree with him in that "Bangkok" was the collapse of the FM, as "El Tren ..." , even with the first glimpses of another kind of listening, still maintaining aesthetically FM format ever, yes, daring to put background music as the sponsor, the Falange anthem creepy "Cara al Sol" and the best music in those days was played on the radio. Bangkok

Yesterday I happened to run "Lost Tapes" double CD that took the Argentine newspaper Page12 few years ago, is a compilation of some of the best pearls of the program that turned many heads.

sometimes recorded in the radio club in the evenings, but then began to live on the station. When he finally
"Bangkok" absorbed him, Carlos was the publisher and I left his post I covered for three years. Already as
Douglas went on to take the place of Quique Prosen, (who became a director of the radio), but would continue rising (by telephone) by a very popular character in the program: Piece of Castelar.
"Here Radio Bangkok" lasted almost three years and ended with the start of menemato. Daniel Grinbank
tired of the radio copyright, complaints and fines Comfer.

was the so-called "Third time" of the station, which fortunately did not last long because it started to look like other FM (Aspen type, but with rock bottom), the audience was hungry for those programs "so mad" and measures began to bear down.
While the program again "with argument" was the time of "Could Be Worse" (Pergolini - Di Natale), "Buenos Aires? A Divine Comedy" (Lalo Mir - Elizabeth Vernaci) and others still the Rock & Pop
In 2000, in "Animal Radio" (last Lalo Mir program for the station), there was a remake Radio of Bangkok without saying it openly. There were
