The station broadcasts 24 hours a day from its studio centre in Bordon, Hampshire. These studios were opened at the end of 2005 and are equipped with the latest broadcasting technology. Delta originally operated two separate studios, one in Prospect Place, Alton, and another in Weyhill, Haslemere.

The original Delta Radio first broadcast in January 1990. It was the brainchild of County Sound CEO, Mike Powell who successfully lobbied the Radio Authority for permission to put separate programming for the Haslemere district on what was originally intended to be a relay transmitter for Guildford's County Sound. The station was launched by County Sound's Terry Mann, formerly Programme Director of Radio 210, Reading. Commercial radio station covering Surrey and Hampshire. ...

After County Sound merged with Radio Mercury to form Allied Radio, Delta Radio was closed down by its new owners in 1994 and the transmitter went back to being a relay. However, when Mike Powell's UKRD Group won the Guildford licence (after it came up for renewal), Delta Radio was relaunched in 1996. Meanwhile, Wey Valley Radio had been operating as a full time service in nearby Alton and Four Marks since 1992. As this station had been acquired by UKRD, it made sense to merge the two stations together. In 2000, the Haslemere licence (which had previously been a part of the Surrey and Northeast Hampshire franchise) was merged with the Alton licence to finally form a single radio station. The UKRD Group Ltd is a British media company, that owns the license to 13 commercial radio stations in the United Kingdom. ...
