Gem FM
Gem FM broadcasts the very best pop and rock music from the 70s through to the present day. Interactivity is a key feature of the station, with 'Listener's Choice' hours throughout the day, handing listeners control of the station’s playlist. Listeners are also invited to phone-in any show and air their views on current affairs, sport, music or even the weather! Gem FM: Top of the North.

Iris 107
Iris 107 broadcasts the cream of contemporary music from the 90s onwards. The station is aimed at a 16-30 audience with programming reflecting the target market’s diverse tastes. Iris 107 is also the home of Championship football in the region with exclusive commentary rights to both Sheffield United and Sheffield Wednesday games during the 2009/2010 season. When both teams play at the same time, commentary of each match is split between Iris 107's FM and MW frequencies. The home team's game can be found on 936kHz whilst the travelling team's commentary airs on the FM frequencies. At all other times, Iris' AM frequency is simply a simulcast of the FM transmission.
