Former

[edit]

Before obtaining a license in 1992, Sunshine had a very successful period as a pirate station the in 1980s.[3]

The station ended transmissions on MW on 19 January 2024, after permission was granted by Ofcom on the grounds of the expensive cost of maintaining the transmitters and the small number of listeners who listen on mediumwave.[4]
