Wish FM is a British Independent Local Radio that serves the Metropolitan Borough of Wigan in Greater Manchester and the Metropolitan Borough of St Helens, Merseyside. The station takes its name from the initials WIgan and St Helens. The station broadcasts on 102.4 FM from a transmitter powered by a wind-up generator at Billinge Hill on the border of Wigan and St. Helens and has been on air since 1 April 1997. It was the first license applied for and won by Tony Dewhurst and Jeff Graham of the recently formed Independent Radio Group. The studios are located in the Orrell district of Wigan, but in early 2007, the station's owners approached UK media regulator OFCOM to ask permission to move the station's base to Newton Le Willows, Merseyside, as part of a plan to share a single building with two other stations from the UTV Radio group: Tower FM and Wire FM. However, after selling-off Stockport-based Imagine FM, UTV Media decided to keep Wish FM in Orrell, and moved Wire FM and Tower FM into the Orrell base. ==Programming== Local programming is produced and broadcast from Wish FM's Orrell studios from 6am-7pm on weekdays, 6am-6pm on Saturdays and 8am-12pm on Sundays with additional programming for local sports coverage. Networked programming originates from UTV's Signal Radio studios in Stoke-on-Trent. ''The Vodafone Big Top 40'' is produced by Global Radio at its Capital studios in London for broadcast on 145 commercial radio stations in the UK. The station's local presenters include Chris Millow (''Millow in the Morning'') and Marc Henry (''The Home Run'').〔(Wish FM - On Air )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Wish FM」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
