History
YRN was based in Sheffield at Radio Hallam, although all of the live programmes came from Studio 2 at Viking Radio in Hull .
The company came about when Radio Hallam merged with Pennine Radio and later took over Viking Radio in 1987 .
In 1989 all of the three radio stations medium wave frequencies were used to form a new service called Classic Gold. YRN was bought by the Metro Radio group and as Pennine was making a loss they decided to rename it. The Pulse of West Yorkshire was born, the station was later sold off.
For a while YRN used the overnight sustaining service "The Superstation" .

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“Revolutions are the periods of history when individuals count most.”
—Norman Mailer (b. 1923)
“The myth of independence from the mother is abandoned in mid- life as women learn new routes around the mother—both the mother without and the mother within. A mid-life daughter may reengage with a mother or put new controls on care and set limits to love. But whatever she does, her child’s history is never finished.”
—Terri Apter (20th century)
“The history of this country was made largely by people who wanted to be left alone. Those who could not thrive when left to themselves never felt at ease in America.”
—Eric Hoffer (1902–1983)
