Official Statement – Coast Radio

It’s with a very heavy heart that we announce that Coast Radio will cease broadcasting at midnight on Sunday, 30th November 2025.

This decision has not been taken lightly. Despite every effort behind the scenes, ongoing operational and financial pressures have made it impossible for Coast Radio to continue in a sustainable way. As a small, independent station, we have always operated with passion first and resources second — but sadly, that is no longer enough to keep the station viable.

We want to express our deepest thanks to every listener, sponsor and advertiser who believed in us. Your support, enthusiasm and loyalty turned a small local idea into something we will always be incredibly proud of.

We also want to pay a sincere and heartfelt tribute to the talented team of presenters who brought Coast Radio to life every single day. Their energy, personality and commitment made the station what it was — warm, engaging and unmistakably personal. They put their hearts into every show, and we are incredibly grateful for the joy, character and connection they delivered to our audience.

Coast Radio’s time may have been short, but it was genuinely special. We’re grateful for every message, every request, every laugh, and every moment shared with us along the way.

Thank you for being part of our story.

Morning Folks,
Tonight on Mearns FM will be my last Friday Fix show between 8pm till 10pm.
After a few years behind the scenes i decided to return to on air broadcasting and I took the show on in January 2021 just a few days before the birth of my youngest son Finn, the show was originally on from 6pm till 8pm before moving to the later slot of 8pm till 10pm and now it's time for me to hand the slot over to another Mearns FM presenter.

So join me for one last Michael's Friday Fix and drop your requests and mentions here today before the show.

I am not leaving Mearns FM as i am still the chairman and will still be on air doing various cover shows. If you want to find out when and where you can hear me follow my radio page Michael Smith On Air.
