Heart Cambridge


Heart 103 is an Independent Local Radio station broadcasting to Cambridge on 103.0 MHz and DAB Digital Radio. Heart also broadcast in Newmarket and Haverhill on 97.4 MHz.

History

The station was originally owned by Mid-Anglia Radio and began life as CNFM in February 1989, before being renamed to Q103 FM in June 1994 when it was acquired by the GWR Group.
In 2004 the name was slightly adjusted to Q103 Cambridge after their launch on DAB Digital Radio. On 1 August 2007, Q103 reverted to their 2004 strapline of "Today's Best Mix", also dropping the "Cambridge" from their name to reflect the newly extended TSA area. Q103 also introduced their new jingle package. On Monday 30 June 2008, Q103 along with other One Network stations adopted the strapline More Music Variety, in essence a reversion to the previous strapline.
On 5 January 2009, the station was rebranded as Heart Cambridge.
On 21 June 2010, Global Radio announced plans to merge Heart Cambridge’s programming with Heart Peterborough as part of plans to reduce the Heart network of stations from 33 to 16. The new station, Heart Cambridgeshire began broadcasting from Peterborough on Friday 2 July 2010. On 19 September 2011, the station announced it would relocate to the former Q103 studios just outside Cambridge, in Histon.
