Wikipedia:
'Xfm' is a brand of commercial radio stations focused on alternative music,
primarily indie, and owned by GCap Media in the United Kingdom. Xfm was created
in 1997 in London, but has since expanded to several stations. Each station
produces its own content, with little syndication. XFM is now available across
most of the country via DAB.
The station has previously employed a number of DJs that have since gone on to
even greater fame including Ricky Gervais, Karl Pilkington, Stephen Merchant,
Simon Pegg, Christian O'Connell, Justin Lee Collins and Zane Lowe.
On 11 February 2008 GCap Media announced that they would be selling the analogue
licences for the Manchester, Scotland and South Wales stations
retaining only XFM London. This was decided in an attempt to shore-up profits
and concentrate on 'winning brands'.
Current stations include: *Xfm London has been broadcasting since 1997. *Xfm
Manchester was launched on 15 March 2006. *Mi Xfm, a 'personalised radio player'
with no commercials or DJs was launched in February 2007.
Proposed Stations: *Xfm North East A licensing application has been made to
ofcom.
Former stations included: *Xfm Scotland, previously known as Beat 106, was
launched on 4 January 2006. It was then renamed Galaxy Scotland on 7 November
2008. *Xfm South Wales which broadcasted to Cardiff & Swansea between 29th
November 2007 and 30 May 2008. It was then sold to Town and Country Broadcasting
who reopened it as Nation Radio.
The London variation is also broadcast on Digital Radio across the country,
reaching near national coverage of the station.
