<h1>Queering the Airwaves</h1>
<p>Gaywaves was a lifeline for queer people in Brisbane in the early 90s. </p>
<p>Listeners from out of town would drive just within range of the 4ZZZ signal every Wednesday evening to be part of an accepting community - in fact they still do. 4ZZZ has had continuously running programming for the queer community in <a href="http://4zzz.org.au/program/queer-radio" rel="nofollow">Queer Radio</a> & <a href="http://4zzz.org.au/program/dykes-on-mykes" rel="nofollow">Dykes on Mics</a> since the early 1990s, both programs are still on air to this day. </p>
<p>In this episode, hear the story of Gai Lemon who was an announcer on Gaywaves from 1990 - 2000. </p>
