Yorkshire Coast Radio was launched on Sunday 7 November 1993,[2] broadcasting local programming from 6 am-10 pm each day with overnight output simulcast from Minster FM.
Originally, the station had planned to broadcast from the Heatherleigh, a trawler moored in Scarborough's harbour which later became a museum.
On 7 November 1999, Yorkshire Coast Radio expanded after its owners were awarded the licence to cover the neighbouring Bridlington area.
