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.
