Sister Station
Spin South West's format is taken from Dublin's Spin 1038, the original Spin station started in 2002, also owned by Denis O'Brien's Communicorp Group Limited. The South West station has recently also been simulcasting programmes from its Dublin sister station. The primary example of this is SPIN Hits with Nikki Hayes, which is broadcast from 9:45am to 12:45am daily. The stations make use of split links to regionalise the show, however generic jingles referring to the station as SPIN are used. Other programmes such as Club Educate and Hit 30 na hEireann are also syndicated. In mid-2012, Spin South West began using the same imaging as Spin 1038, and also stopped its own news in favour of syndicated news from its Dublin counterpart.
