Point FM
In March 2017, it was reported that Point FM was facing a winding-up petition by PPL for non-payment of licence fees to play music on-air and an unresolved small claims judgement. In July 2017, the High Court ruled in favour of PPL and Point FM was placed into compulsory liquidation. The station ceased broadcasting shortly after the winding up order was issued. In October 2017, OFCOM announced that the station had surrendered its FM licence. The regulator advertised a new FM community licence for the Vale of Clwyd, Kinmel Bay and Abergele areas in December 2018. Four applications were received, although only three were considered. In December 2019, OFCOM awarded the FM licence to Sound Radio, based in Towyn. The station, which launched online during the autumn of 2017, began broadcasting on 103.1 FM at 7am on Monday 8 February 2021.
