In September 1996, owner West Coast Radio launched 97.3 Coast FM^[2] due to the lack of local Mandurah content, over the years the station has become number 1 in Mandurah^[3] and a favourite in Perth and Bunbury. 97.3 Coast FM broadcasts on the FM dial since its launch and has since expanded to DAB+ in December 2019.^[4] The station plays trending hits from the 90s to now, excluding Fridays where plays hits from 90s, 00s and 10s, named "Friday Jams". Coast FM also plays the most local content^[5] when compared to all commercial networks in WA, having Mandurah and Perth based hosts broadcasting from 6am to late on weekdays and having dedicated blocks to play only Australian Music. The station also has a very big presence in the local community being a part of events, grand openings and supporting the community. 97.3 also hosts their event '97 days of summer' where they give away prizes including $10k at the very end.^{[citation needed]}
