Harrogate Hospital Radio is preparing to go on to the FM airwaves after earning a licence on its third attempt in three years.
It will be a major step for the station when it starts to broadcast for the first time on 95.3FM from 9am on September 1.
The charity radio station, which has been keeping hospital staff and patients entertained since October 1977, has had a long journey to get to this point.
Harrogate District Hospital now has 300 FM radios so even more patients will be able to listen to Harrogate Hospital Radio.
The chairman hopes that it will become the dedicated radio station for not only the hospital, but the surrounding area as well.
