South West Radio

South West Radio was a short-lived independent local radio station in the United Kingdom that broadcast to Somerset in 2011. It was formed by merging three struggling local stations: Quay West 107.4 & 100.8, Ivel FM, and Vale FM. The station faced financial difficulties and ceased broadcasting in late 2011. Its frequencies were later taken over by other broadcasters, such as The Breeze. South West Radio's closure was part of a broader trend of consolidation in the UK local radio market.
