Gavin Buckle has been involved in the radio, television outside broadcast and events industry for the past 18 years.
Radio
“Radio is an addiction for me. Once it entered my bloodstream, there was no escaping it. I was 16, bed ridden with Chickenpox and couldn’t sleep. Click ... on came the radio and the late Robin Alexandra was on Radio Orion. All my ailments disappeared. Even though he was speaking to thousands, it was as though his conversation was directed directly at me. It was at that moment that I understood the intimacy of radio. Social media can co-exist alongside radio, but never replace it!”
He has extensive experience in radio station management, programme management, all technical aspects regarding broadcast equipment, as well as presenting almost every radio show time slot.
Apart from managing radio stations, he has also built a number of radio station studios.
Amongst the radio stations he has worked for over the years are 94.7 Highveld Stereo, MixFM, Fame International
