in the Liverpool District Registry Closure Following the winding-up order, the station's licence passed into the hands of the official receiver. OFCOM ordered the station to cease broadcasting by 2 August 2012, a deadline which was ignored by Dune's owner. Six days after the deadline, OFCOM engineers attended the transmitter site at Gaws Hill, Ormskirk, accompanied by Dune's transmission contractor, and removed the transmission equipment. The station went off air at 12.23pm. The station now exclusively broadcasts online as Coast1079, using the same format and personalities with similar branding.
