Greatest Hits Radio South is a regional radio station serving the South of England, as part of Bauer’s Greatest Hits Radio network.

Coverage

The seven local stations broadcast to Salisbury, Dorset, West Sussex, North Hampshire, Berkshire, Aylesbury and Oxfordshire from central studios in Manchester, Liverpool and London, and a regional studio in Segensworth, Fareham for opt-outs.

History

After acquiring several businesses in early 2019, in May 2020, Bauer Radio announced many of their radio stations would rebrand and join the Greatest Hits Radio network, including several stations in the south of England:[1]

Jack FM rebranded and joined the network on 30 October 2023 after being acquired by Bauer.[3]

Programming

During the week most programming is shared with the Greatest Hits Radio network. A regional three-hour afternoon show is broadcast from studios in Segensworth near Fareham by former Spire FM presenter Martin Starke.[4] Each localised area in the South has their own latest local news, weather and travel news updates.
