The transmitter is on Mount Uncanoonuc, off Perimeter Road in Goffstown, near other towers serving Southern New Hampshire TV and FM stations. Following the demise of WAAF (107.3 FM) with its sale to the Educational Media Foundation, WGIR-FM has gained major listenership in the adjacent Boston DMA, alongside Providence, Rhode Island sister station WHJY (94.1 FM), though WHJY has a clearer signal in much of the Boston area compared to WGIR-FM's signal.
