Contact 89fm had a Top 13 countdown every Wednesday between 7 and 8pm. Shane Booker hosted the show for some years from around the mid-1990's, alternating with Kevin Glover from 1996 onwards, although it had run for many years previously.
The Top 13 was sponsored by Metropolis Cafe for a number of years, and Tracs and Demo Street Wear at various times.
The most successful song on the Top 13 was Risingson by Massive Attack, which spent over 10 weeks at number 1 and 26 weeks on the chart. Mutilated Lips by Ween spent over 3 months on the chart.
Through the early to mid-1990's, Hamilton bands typically had strong support from the listeners that was reflected in the Top 13.
