Op 11 december 1992 begonnen Lex Harding en Erik de Zwart samen met een selecte groep dj's, waaronder Corné Klijn, Ferry Maat, Rick van Velthuysen en Wessel van Diepen, met Radio 538. Ter gelegenheid van het 25-jarig bestaan werden de 100 grootste hits uit de geschiedenis van het radiostation uitgezonden. Luisteraars hadden de mogelijkheid om hun favoriete nummer te kiezen uit een lijst van 2538 hits die de afgelopen 25 jaar zijn gedraaid. Op basis hiervan werd de '538 Top 100' samengesteld.
