Radio Max meets Music First

Mike Gut has withdrawn his application for a license for his Zurich youth radio station, Radio Max, and is now teaming up with his former competitor Giuseppe Scaglione. The two radio producers have come to the conclusion that they are stronger together and are now joining forces in Music First's application. Mike Gut will contribute conceptually to Music First and acquire a minority stake as a private individual, as can be seen from a press release issued by the two. Together, they believe they have a better chance than if they had competed against each other. Both projects were favored in the consultation process of the Zurich city government. The second remaining applicant for the FM frequency put out to tender by Bakom has a different opinion. DJ Radio names itself on its website as the city government's favorite. The two self-proclaimed favorites now have until the end of March to revise their applications.
