Pete Forsyth
Pete started his long career in 1967 as a mobile DJ in Halifax and surrounding districts.
He progressed to clubs around West Yorkshire where he learned to “mix”. This was not his style at all! He classes his style as “personality jock”.
1n 1990 he took it to Corfu and turned a quiet wine bar into the first Karaoke bar in Corfu.
In between stints abroad (Corfu, Tenerife) he worked on various hospital radio stations in Calderdale and Devon (don’t ask!).
In 2009 he presented his own shows on RNI and Replay Radio from a shed in his garden.
In 2012 he started his own station (Radio Heatwave) which was a huge success and continued until 2020.
He now presents his “Yorkshire Mixtures” show on Laser Hot Hits on Fridays from 4pm to 6pm. Also the "Saturday Gossip " show on KTMR Saturday mornings 10am - 12pm.
He welcomes, nay, insists on, requests!
