Availability in the U.S.A.

UPDATE (December 2021) - We had a good run while at Radio Coalition, but times are increasingly hard on Internet Radio stations due in part to SoundExchange's recent increase, so we returned to where it all began. Our LIVE365 account has been reactivated, and our Radio Coalition player went away in January 2022. Listen Here.


UPDATE (January 2020) - Our LIVE365 stream has been deactivated and you can now hear us through the Radio Coalition player which handles our expanded license coverage for the United States. Thanks to our listeners for your valuable support.

UPDATE (May 2019) - You must really like us. We have grown out of the package limits we purchased through LIVE365 and once again need to update our player to accomidate the expanded licensing needs of the station by joining Radio Coalition.


UPDATE (Nov 2018) - Our License provider for the U.S. region has expanded coverage area to include Canada and the U.K. in addition our U.S. so we have had to increase ad-insertion to try and accomidate the dramatic increase in listeners.

UPDATE (Aug 2017) - We have arranged for some limited listener hours to be made available to listeners in the U.S.

HISTORY - On January 1, 2016, new performance royalty rates collected by SoundExchange went into effect that makes no allowances for small webcasters. Prior webcaster settlement agreements allowed small commercial webcasters to pay based on a percentage of their revenue, much like ASCAP, BMI and SESAC do. A percentage of revenue royalty payment system encourages the growth of the station as it permits a realistic revenue to cover the related royalties.

In our opinion, in the US, the new performance rate is beyond what the market will bear for small webcasters. The impact of the new performance royalty could cost this station as much as, or more than a home mortgage every month. Unlike AM/FM stations that have much larger budgets, we literally operate out of pocket, and revenue from commercials doesn't come close to covering the new royalty costs. Internet Radio is not the place to be if you expect to make a lot of money.

Rather than let this tribute station go silent and dark with this rate change we have made efforts to license it for streaming outside the U.S. While we are hopeful for a reasonable rate for webcasters in the US, we don't see signs of this happening anytime soon. Until such time we have to follow this financially prudent policy, If we can't afford to pay the royalties where your ears are, we have to block access to our stream from your location. We apologize for the inconvenience.

About STAR1079.com

This is the tribute site for America's First 80s station, originally an FM station operating as WXST and occupying the 107.9 frequency on the FM dial in Columbus, Ohio from 1998 to 2001. Now exclusively on the Internet, for all to enjoy with more variety than ever before.


Are we missing some 80s?

Every once and a while we get a request for a song that we don't have already ripped off the LP, 8-Track or cassette, which causes us to make a mad dash down to the 80s Vault so we can hook up the patch cables and get it ready to play for you. If you know of an 80s song that we aren't playing, but should then send us an email to 'requests' AT star1079.com and we will look into it and see if we can get it prepared for play.
