Eagle FM's Goulburn studios are shared with sister station 2GN.[5] The building is located on the corner of Lagoon and Union streets.[6] Eagle FM is primarily played out from Studio A. Goulburn Radio Broadcasters is also responsible for broadcasting Grant Broadcasters' hot country network, KIX Country, in the Southern Tablelands.

The station's playout software is Zetta from RCS, having previously used Master Control also an RCS product.[7]
