Sorry to hear of the death of Eddie West.

Eddie was one of the original presenters on Radio Nova and Downtown Radio, which he help to set up in 1976. He also worked on ADR, Capital before setting up Beaumont Hospital Radio in 1990 with longtime friend, David Dennehy.

In latter years he returned home to Downtown, where he worked and managed up until a couple of years ago. After leaving Downtown, the bug was with him and he set up and ran the online station Fever40.

May he rest in peace.
