Swansea Sound
Swansea Sound ((ウェールズ語:Sain Abertawe)) is an independent local radio station broadcasting to Swansea and surrounding areas,〔(Broadcast Radio MCAs maps )〕 aimed at a core 40+ demographic. The station, launched in 1974 as the first of its kind in Wales, is owned and operated by UTV Radio alongside its sister station, 96.4 The Wave.〔The Welsh Academy Encyclopedia of Wales. Cardiff: University of Wales Press 2008.〕
== History ==
''Swansea Sound'' began broadcasting on 30 September 1974 as the first commercial radio station in Wales,〔 and the first commercial radio station to broadcast bilingually in the English and Welsh languages.〔(Mercator Media Monographs 1: The Welsh Language in the Media )〕 Originally, the station broadcast on 1170 AM and 95.1 FM before moving its FM frequency to 96.4 in the early 1980s.
In 1995, the station was split into two separate services - a practice that had been widely adopted within the commercial radio industry in order to avoid relinquishing frequencies – with a new station called ''96.4 Sound Wave'' (now 96.4 The Wave) launched on the FM frequency, while ''Swansea Sound'' continued to broadcast as normal on 1170 AM.〔(Station Name ), Media,〕〔(Station details - Swansea Sound ), Swansea Sound Media〕
The station can also be heard online and on DAB Digital Radio across Swansea and South West Wales, although its medium wave signal can be heard beyond the official transmission area in North Devon and across the Bristol Channel. The transmitter is located at Winch Wen, on the side of Kilvey Hill and for technical reasons does not use the same mast on the top of Kilvey Hill as its sister station.The DAB service covers a larger transmission area than its AM service.
