GNFM (formerly known as 2GN) is an Australian radio station serving the Goulburn region, which opened in January 1932[1] as 2GN on a frequency of 1390 kHz (1368 kHz between 1978 and 2022). Test broadcasting began on 7 December 1931.[2] It is now co-owned by the Capital Radio Network and Grant Broadcasters, broadcasting on 107.7 MHz. The station carries a Classic Hits format and Forever Classic branding similar to its sister stations, 2CA, 6IX, XLFM and 3GG. The station's studios are shared with sister station, Eagle FM.

GNFM has an FM repeater serving the township of Crookwell and re-transmitting GNFM on 106.1 MHz.

On 12 May 2022, the station transitioned to FM and it was renamed GNFM.[3] On 28 May 2022, the AM signal on 1368 kHz broadcast a retune message telling listeners to tune to 107.7. This remained the case until the AM signal on 1368 kHz was switched off in June 2022.
