[edit] History

main: Radio Clyde

Clyde 1 was born out of the compulsory transmission splitting enforced by the UK regulators in the 1990s, developing the FM frequency into Radio Clyde into a Top-40 format radio station.

The development of live-streaming and digital radio led to a widening of the station's potential audience through carriage on the station's website [2] and Score Digital's DAB multiplex in Glasgow.

The station's Freeview carriage came as a consequence of the closure of stable-mate 3C by the station's then-owners, and has resulted in the station receiving UK-wide broadcast.

[edit] Programming

The station broadcasts contemporary music as well as live coverage of Glasgow's football teams and broad coverage of other sport.

The station broadcasts one syndicated programme, the weekly national sales and airplay chart Hit 40 UK, as well as a simulcast of Saturday sports coverage with Clyde 2.
