ABQ ABQ is the Australian Broadcasting Corporation's television station in Brisbane, Queensland . It began broadcasting on 2 November 1959 and is based at purpose-built headquarters on Brisbane's South Bank . The station is received throughout the state through a number of relay transmitters, and satellite transmission on the Optus Aurora free-to-view platform. ABQ's schedule largely consists of national ABC Television programming with opt-outs for news and current affairs , rugby league and state election coverage. For many years, the station was based at studios in the inner-western suburb of Toowong , with a transmitter at Mount Coot-tha . In late 2006, the Toowong studios were abandoned due to an unacceptably high rate of breast cancer at the facility. An independent study examined 10 cases of breast cancer reported at the studios, and found the incidence rate was 11 times higher than the general working community. Up until January 2012, staff worked from several sites around Brisbane , with ABC Radio based in nearby Lissner Street, Toowong, ABC News staff working from Network Ten's Mount Coot-tha studios , ABC Innovation and Online staff working at QUT Kelvin Grove, and other staff based in locations including Coronation Drive and West End . On 10 January 2012, ABC Brisbane moved into a new facility in South Bank.Programming Local programming ABC News Queensland is presented by Matt Wordsworth and Jessica van Vonderen. Weather is presented by Jenny Woodward and Craig Zonca . Finance is presented by Alan Kohler in Melbourne. Past presenters of the bulletin have included Rod Young and Andrew Lofthouse , both of whom went on to read the flagship 6:00 pm bulletins on Seven and Nine respectively. The pair opposed each other in this timeslot between mid-2009 and late-2012, during which the Seven bulletin co-read by Young and Kay McGrath consistently rated higher than the Nine bulletin co-read by Lofthouse and Melissa Downes .Networked programming Australian Story Landline Relay stations The following stations relay ABQ throughout Queensland:Call Region served City Channels' First air date 3rd letter's meaning ERP ' HAAT '1 Transmitter coordinates Transmitter location ABAQ Alpha Alpha 8 NA 19 December 1974Alpha 0.021 kW 88 m Alpha ABAAQ Augathella Augathella 11 NA 8 March 1974 Augathell A 0.021 kW 51 m Augathella ABBQ Barcaldine Barcaldine 10 7 19 December 1974 Barcaldine 0.02 kW 0.005 kW 61 m 61 m Barcaldine ABBLQ Blackall Blackall 9 7 19 December 1974 Blackal L 0.2 kW 0.05 kW 61 m 66 m Blackall ABCAQ Cunnamulla Cunnamulla 10 NA 8 March 1974 Cunnamull A 0.026 kW 41 m Cunnamulla ABCEQ Charleville Charleville 9 11 8 March 1974 Charlevill E 0.26 kW 0.065 kW 99 m 99 m Charleville ABCLQ Cloncurry Cloncurry 7 6 17 March 1971CLoncurry 0.2 kW 0.05 kW 115 m 115 m Mount Avarice ABCTQ Clermont Clermont 10 54 19 December 1974 Clermon T 0.1 kW 0.2 kW 89 m 80 m Clermont ABDQ Darling Downs Toowoomba 32 2 6 37 16 December 1963Darling Downs 1600 kW 500 kW 570 m 549 m Mount Mowbullan ABDIQ Dirranbandi Dirranbandi 7 NA 8 March 1974 Dirranband I 0.016 kW 65 m Dirranbandi ABEQ Emerald Emerald 11 9 21 December 1973 Emerald 2 kW 0.625 kW 92 m 92 m Emerald ABGQ Goondiwindi Goondiwindi 6 56 9 July 1973Goondiwindi 0.5 kW 0.625 kW 41 m 49 m Goondiwindi ABHQ Hughenden Hughenden 9 8 30 June 1971 Hughenden 0.2 kW 0.125 kW 80 m 80 m Hughenden ABIQ Mount Isa Mount Isa 6 7 21 December 1970 Mount Isa 1.6 kW 0.4 kW 72 m 75 m DCA Hill ABJQ Julia Creek Julia Creek 10 NA 20 April 1971 Julia Creek 0.2 kW 65 m Julia Creek ABLQ Longreach Longreach 6 10 19 December 1974 Longreach 0.7 kW 0.175 kW 69 m 69 m Longreach ABMQ Mackay Mackay 8 3 6 10 21 December 1967 Mackay 360 kW 90 kW 611 m 613 m Mount Blackwood ABMLQ Mitchell Mitchell 6 12 8 March 1974 Mitchel L 0.2 kW 0.05 kW 149 m 149 m Mitchell Escarpment ABMNQ Morven Morven 7 NA 8 March 1974 Morve N 0.13 kW 133 m Morven ABMSQ Miles Miles 9 63 30 November 1973 Mile S 0.32 kW 0.8 kW 132 m 132 m Miles Hill ABNQ Cairns Cairns 9 6 8 25 July 1966 North 200 kW 50 kW 1190 m 1190 m Mount Bellenden Ker ABRQ Rockhampton Rockhampton 9 4 6 11 21 December 1963 Rockhampton 160 kW 50 kW 495 m 495 m Mount Hopeful ABRAQ Roma Roma 7 8 14 December 1973Rom A 2 kW 0.5 kW 103 m 105 m Timbury Hills ABRDQ Richmond Richmond 6 7 4 June 1971 Richmon D 0.2 kW 0.05 kW 70 m 70 m Richmond ABSQ Southern Downs Warwick 1 6 45 4 July 1966 Southern Downs 200 kW 500 kW 255 m 316 m Passchendaele Ridge ABSEQ Springsure Springsure 8 5 46 19 December 1974 Springsur E 0.8 kW 2 kW 280 m 283 m Roddas Lookout ABSGQ St. George St. George 8 12 8 March 1974 St. George 0.13 kW 0.033 kW 63 m 64 m St. George ABTQ Townsville Townsville 3 6 31 21 September 1964 Townsville 160 kW 200 kW 635 m 644 m Mount Stuart ABWQ Wide Bay Maryborough 6 6 9A 8 October 1965 Wide Bay 240 kW 60 kW 601 m 646 m Mount Goonaneman ABWNQ Winton Winton 8 7 15 November 1974Winto N''' 1.6 kW 0.4 kW 97 m 94 m Rangelands
