Close Down
With the making of 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. On 8 August, Ofcom engineers attended the transmitter site at Gaws Hill, Ormskirk, accompanied by Dune's transmission contractor, and removed the transmission equipment. The station left the air at 12.23.

Famous quotes containing the word close:
“Then, with eyes that saw not, I kissed her;
And she, kissing back, could not know
That my kiss was given to her sister,
Folded close under deepening snow.”
—James Russell Lowell (1819–1891)
“The man of large and conspicuous public service in civil life must be content without the Presidency. Still more, the availability of a popular man in a doubtful State will secure him the prize in a close contest against the first statesman of the country whose State is safe.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
