Nation Radio Devon

Nation Radio Devon began its Westcountry service in March 2026, joining Somerset and Cornwall within Nation Broadcasting's regional offering. Its launch brought the station to the Exeter and Plymouth broadcast areas as well as online listeners. Devon is the focus for its local news, traffic information and branding, while presenters and full programmes are shared with the neighbouring county editions.

The launch brought back familiar South West radio voices. Matt Rogan, whose previous breakfast work included Devon stations, joined Saffy for the morning programme. Scott Temple, Tony Wright, Victoria Leigh and Stuart McGinley were also part of the announced Westcountry team. Their involvement connected the new service with people already experienced in broadcasting to the region.

Musically, the station follows a broad hits format rather than specialising in one decade or a single genre. Its weekday schedules move through breakfast, daytime and drive-time presentation into evening music. Tony Shepherd and Stuart McGinley feature in the shared programme, while the overnight schedule includes Tim Allen. Localised information sits within that wider music offering instead of requiring a wholly separate Devon line-up at every hour.

Weekend programming changes the pace through Greg Burns, Steve Power and Dr Fox's So... Let's Talk About Music. Neil Greenslade's Saturday House Party provides an extended evening programme before Nation Nights. The three Westcountry services use these common programmes, but selecting Devon determines the local news and travel edition. That distinction is central to the station's regional identity.
