Description: Started on 1 September 1997. "London's Only Alternative" is what they used to say. Alternative music. Bought by the Capital Radio Group in approximately August 1998 and changed sound to more mainstream music, only to be promptly fined by the Radio Authority for not keeping to their PoP (Promise Of Performance, a document created when the station is given its licence) in October 1998. The fine came after listeners wrote to complain about the change in music policy. Now part of the huge GCap Media group. You're likely to hear the Artic Monkeys, The Lemonheads and The Ordinary Boys.
