What's been going on? Classical music on loop for a whole week?

[Eccentric M]

It had something to do with the mourning of the 45 soldiers killed in Yemen recently.

[After_Shock]

Any idea when it officially ends?

Ive heard several stories, supposed to be 3 days, then 6 then 7 to it being on until the government have visited all 45 families.

No music on any station! My drive to work in the crappy hire car, without bluetooth, SD slot or USB has been well, silent. Where's a CD or two when you need 'em!

[IanUAE]

I have not had any problems with the radio, Radio iPod has been playing whatever music I want all week.

[6th Gear]

I never listen to the radio. Dreadful mainstream commercial music combined with those radio adverts that make your blood boil.

iPod via Bluetooth connection for me.

Official mourning period was changed to 10 days so will be middle of this week when it changes bacl.

103.8 Dubai Eye is the only thing I listened to.

[dunebuggy]

103.8 the best by some measure.
I understood it was now in part due to the crane fall in Saudi? (the extension that is)

Yup - on 'The Ticket' can't listen to it. I'm suer she's a nice lass and all that, but unless it's an act, I can't be doing listening to her trying to drop my IQ by 50 points.
