Dave Foster started his radio career in 1977 with Dart Radio at West Hill Hospital in his hometown of Dartford, Kent where he'd already been a disco DJ. His next move was in 1987 when he joined Radio Caroline at sea on the Ross Revenge. It was only for an 8 week spell but he wouldn't have missed it for the world. After that it was back to Dart Radio where he rose to the position of Programme Controller. Dave next joined satellite station European Classic Rock through his good friend Mark Stafford and was with the station until it's closure in 1999. Radio Caroline took over the EKR studios at Maidstone and Nigel Harris asked Dave to help get the station back on the air which required rebuilding the studio. This he did with help from his friend Jay. Dave has been with Caroline ever since. He tries to visit the Ross Revenge as often possible to help the restoration crew and in 2005 spent some time upgrading the on-air studio for the digital era. " It was tough going", he says, "but worth every minute". Dave can be heard on Radio Caroline on Sunday afternoons between 2 and 6 p.m, and on Caroline Flashback presenting the Retro Top 20 at 12 noon on Saturdays. He is also on Holland's Radio Seagull - the station started by former Caroline Dutch Service man Sietse Brouwer.more
