About The Voice North Devon:

The Voice North Devon originally set up in July 2010 due to the closure of The Heart North Devon. Formally known as the Network North Devon, the station started to broadcast online initially. Ofcom granted The Voice its first FM license in November 2010, which was a temporary one; however, it was not made into a permeant license. Moreover, in 2011 Ofcom rejected the application for a commercial license due to it being given to another station (Now Digital). During this period, it aired online on its website and mobile app.
