By September 2007, the station was only reaching audience shares of 2.6% in the West and 4.1% in the East.
On 11 February 2008 GCap Media
announced that they would be selling the analogue licence for the station. GCap later became part of Global Radio
and it was decided to keep the licence.

and into parts of England. Local programming on the station consisted of daily breakfast, weekday drivetime and specialist shows with networked programming broadcast from Leeds.
Galaxy Scotland joined the Galaxy Network on 7 November 2008. XFM finished on air at approximately 3.30pm that day, followed immediately by a 15-minute launch sequence for Galaxy. Galaxy programming started by 4pm the same afternoon, with Gary Spence from the former Vibe 105-108 FM first to open the mic live on-air on the newly-launched Galaxy. Networked programming from the Galaxy network went out as normal that evening, although Dave Kelly presented his show from Glasgow on this occasion instead of from the usual Leeds studios at Galaxy 105 Yorkshire. However, the live show he did on this occasion went out on Scotland only, with the remainder of the network taking a pre-recorded show.
Since launching in November 2008, Galaxy Scotland gained 429,000 listeners providing almost 3.2 million listening hours per week. In the 12 months up to May 2010, the station doubled its number of listeners. As of Monday 12 July 2010, Galaxy Scotland changed their tagline from "Love Music" to "Scotland's No 1 Hit Music Station" in line with the other Galaxy stations across the UK.
