Territory FM broadcasts a broad range of adult contemporary rock and mainstream music from the Darwin City campus of Charles Darwin University.[2] News is provided by Nine News between 6:00am and 10:00pm. Territory FM also has a long-standing media agreement with the Nine Network, broadcasting Nine News Darwin bulletins every weeknight, as well as updates from their newsroom in the afternoons.[3]

Originally called "8TOPFM" for most of the 1980's and "104.1 TOPFM" in the 1990's. By the 2000's "TOP" was renamed "Territory FM 104.1"
In 2016 the book Blazing A Trail on Darwin Airwaves – the first 35 years of FM 104.1 Darwin (1981–2016) was released, which documents Darwin's first community radio station and its history. Its introduction was written by long-time presenter Jih Seymour.
