Tony Smith, station manager, said: ‘In 1997 when Fred Dinenage accidentally blew up our transmitter, who would have thought that 24 years later we would be broadcasting on over 20 transmitters dotted around the UK.
‘I’m delighted to welcome our new listeners on the Channel Islands to our extended Angel Radio family.’
Ofcom also announced on Monday that the station’s broadcast licence has been extended to 2027.
Tony added: ‘When so many of the UK’s radio stations are becoming clones of each other, and all sounding very similar, it’s wonderful to be the radio service that stands out from the rest. Long may it continue.’
