“More Music, More Choice”
Fusion Radio’s extensive playlist comprised over 50 years of music, from 1980s chart-toppers to today’s biggest hits. There were dedicated breakfast and drivetime shows on weekdays, plus five specialist ‘themed’ programmes every week. Hourly news and half-hourly weather bulletins were broadcast throughout weekday daytimes, as well as local travel updates during the evening peak.
The station is no longer on air but here’s an archived version of its website.
