Owned by Ad Ossendrijver and Willem van Kooten, the station started broadcasts via all Dutch cablenetworks in 1996 and bought AM 828 from Veronica FM in 1998.

On 31 January 2008 they ceased their AM transmissions, transmitting an announcement in English advising their move to FM and to use the web stream.

Arrow also contributes to the newly founded Pinkpop Classic rock festival, to be held August 2007 featuring the performance of Status Quo, among others.

René van den Abeele, which at Radio Noordzee Nationaal three years Rock from Holland had compiled and presented, adopted in February 1998 Classic Album Special on.

He was also responsible for the editing of the weekly Rolling Stones Special which was presented by Luc van Rooij.

In addition, Arrow Classic Rock offered a normal - recoup - amount to different FM frequency plots.

The retirement benefit "Jazz" FM land was not divided in May 2003 and in November 2003 was still Van Kooten and Ossendrijver won.

In February 2009, Crosspoints BV was ordered by the Radiocommunications Agency to cease Arrow Classic Rock broadcasting on the FM frequencies across the Netherlands by March 11 after a dispute about licence fees.

Because of the financial crisis Crosspoints BV was not longer able to pay millions for licence fees to the Dutch government for the distribution of a special interest music station.

[1] After FM-distribution stopped, Arrow Classic Rock was still broadcasting via all Dutch cable networks, online and on AM 828 kHz 24 hours a day.

Furthermore, there are made several days special programs in the evening, like every Tuesday from nine to ten hours Arrow Symfonisch presented by Kees Baars, BluesBox by Gerry Jungen on every Wednesday from nine to ten, and finally Wintertijd with Harry de Winter, every Friday presented the hours before midnight.

As of 14 February 2011, every Monday from nine to ten hard rock and heavy metal can be heard in the program Arrow HIGH VOLTAGE!

The program is presented by Liselotte "Lilo" Hegt, herself as a singer and bass player in Dutch metal and hard rock bands is active.

The program Arrow Classic Rock Noord was produced by Flux Factory Media BV for NDC Mediagroep.
