Solid Gold GEM AM (later Classic Gold GEM-AM) was a United Kingdom radio station, broadcasting to much of Nottinghamshire, Derbyshire, Leicestershire, Rutland and East Staffordshire from studios in Nottingham, and later Dunstable, Bedfordshire.

The station ran as Solid Gold GEM AM until the mid-1990s when it was absorbed into the rest of the Classic Gold network, and was replaced on 3 August 2007 by a new network called simply Gold. The result of the merger of the Classic Gold and Capital Gold networks under one owner, GCap Media. The GEM name has since re-emerged with the launch of the Internet station Solid Gold Gem in 2012.

2012 saw the launch of Solid Gold Gem AM, an internet radio station following the original GEM-AM format. While Solid Gold Gem AM has no connection to the original GEM AM in Nottingham, its line-up features many of the original presenters including Andy Marriott, Krissi Carpenter, Paul Burbank, and Craig Strong. A commercial free station, it styles itself as "radio like it used to be". www.solidgoldgem.am/

Ok. I can get it streaming outside TuneIn, via the Solid Gold Gem site (UK/EU) link, in Winamp; but (for now) I can't transpose its URL from Winamp correctly, or, if I can do, it's not streaming independently of the site. Ah, another possible solution beckons...

The Attachment here   is a listen.pls file for Solid Gold Gem AM, which will open in Winamp, on any computer that's has it where it is not geoblocked, etc. It should be transferable to any other capable streaming device that will accept it, and hopefully it will work there also.
