93.5 Eagle FM is a contemporary hit music station based in Goulburn, Australia [1] and broadcasting to the Southern Tablelands [2] region of New South Wales on 93.5 FM. Eagle FM is a part of the Capital Radio Network.
Eagle FM launched on 31 January 1997 as the subsequent FM licence to Goulburn's commercial station on AM, 2GN (now GNFM). [3]
The station is owned in a near 50–50 joint venture between Capital Radio Network [4] and Grant Broadcasters [5] trading as Goulburn Radio Broadcasters Pty. Ltd. The station shares its branding and music with fellow Capital Radio Network station Snow FM.[ citation needed]
Eagle FM's Goulburn studios ("Radio Goulburn") are shared with sister station GNFM (formerly 2GN). [6] The building is located on the corner of Lagoon and Union streets. [7] Eagle FM is primarily played out from Studio A. Goulburn Radio Broadcasters is also responsible for broadcasting Grant Broadcasters' national hot country network, KIX Country, in the Southern Tablelands.[ citation needed]
Eagle FM has a repeater in Crookwell, re-transmitting Eagle FM on 103.9 MHz.[ citation needed]
Eagle FM's Twitter account is the 77th oldest among Australian radio stations. [8]
The station's playout software is Zetta from RCS, having previously used Master Control also an RCS product. [9]
In April 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic prevented local Anzac Day services proceeding. In response to this, Eagle FM and 2GN provided a dawn service airing just prior to 6am programming. [10]
On 31 October 2020, Eagle FM's Dylan and Matthew 'MJ' Brokenbrough [11] broadcast live for 24 hours straight in support of Goulburn's Relay For Life which had changed their usual event due to coronavirus.
