98.8 Castle FM


98.8 Castle FM is a now-defunct community radio station, covering the area of Leith in Edinburgh, Scotland. The station started broadcasting on 7th May 2007 and was made available on 98.8FM throughout Edinburgh and its surrounding area as well as online.
On 23 March 2012, the station changed its name to 98.8 Castle FM with the strapline 'Edinburgh's bigger local mix' serving the community of the Capital. The licence-holding company filed accounts in 2012 as a dormant company with no assets.
As of mid-December 2015 Castle FM broadcast on an automated playout without presenters, not originating in the studio, after it lost access to the property used for the station. This is reportedly related to long-standing rent and power bill arrears which forced the landlord to take back control of the premises. The station also ceased streaming online at the same time.
