Nation Broadcasting secures London FM frequency for Nation Radio London

Nation Broadcasting has acquired London FM radio station Time 107.5 from Lyca Media II Ltd. The move gives Nation its first ever FM presence in London.

Nation will utilise the 107.5 FM frequency to broadcast Nation Radio London, adding it to its existing DAB and streaming platforms.

Nation Radio London broadcasts across the capital and the wider South East region on DAB alongside sister stations Nation Classic Hits, Nation 90s, Nation 80s and Nation 70s.

Nation’s founder Jason Bryant said; “London is an increasingly important market for Nation and holds significant growth potential. The ability to launch Nation Radio on FM to a large part of the capital alongside DAB, presents an attractive opportunity to increase the reach of the station and to market our wider range of services, including the Nation Player App, to London.”

Lyca Media II Ltd CEO Raj Badhan said: “Whilst we continue investing in our South Asian radio stations, our time as owners of 107.5 is ending, we wish the station’s employees and clients well as it becomes part of the Nation Broadcasting Group.”  

In the latest official audience figures, published earlier this week, Time FM had a weekly reach of 19,000 and Nation Radio London had a weekly reach of 116,000 adults.
