The All New Mix 99.3 was born in July, 1999. Its purpose was to serve the listening area with a full service radio station that reflected a positive "Mix" of music along with local news, sports, and fun. Every local community needs the kind of radio station that is in a sense, "its mouthpiece." Hometown Radio feels that Mix 99.3 has become that kind of listening post that our community can embrace.

The "Get Up and Go Show" - Being a local native, Steve Hayes returned to the Portsmouth area in 1999 to help build the area's most listened to morning show. With an arsenal of humor, upbeat music, local news, and sports, "The Get Up and Go Show" will always plug the listeners into the mood or moment of the day. According to Steve's philosophy, "I run my show as if I were a listener too. If I ever get bored with it, I'm sure the listeners would also. I simply try to pretend that I'm in the car, or sitting around the breakfast table with everybody else. By the way, would someone please pass the salt?" "The Get Up and Go Show" can be heard 5 am until 10 am Monday through Friday and from 6 am until 10 am on Saturday mornings.

Local Sports - Mix 99.3 with our other two area stations have become a benchmark of what live local sports coverage is all about. Locally presented and community driven, our "five" separate sport teams of announcers will often cover as many games within a thirty hour window. Mornings it's Chuck Greenslate who reflects and reports on both the local and regional sports live starting at 6:30 am on The All New MIX 99.3.

Local News - When it comes to knowing the landscape of the area's local news, Hometown Radio's stable of veterans know how to present the story in a manner that gives you that immediate sense of authority. From city council to the fastest breaking overnight information, the Hometown Radio news team is plugged into all sources of authority to deliver local radio news with integrity and accuracy.
