About ABC Capricornia

Local news and conversation

ABC Capricornia makes its own local programmes, led by a breakfast show with news, interviews and stories from the region, and in many cases a morning programme of conversation and talkback. At other times it shares programmes with the ABC's capital-city station and the national ABC Local Radio network. ABC news bulletins run on the hour, with regional news through the day.

Emergency broadcasting

ABC Capricornia is an official emergency broadcaster. During cyclones, floods, storms and bushfires it carries warnings and updates from the emergency services, and many people in the region keep it on when the weather turns dangerous.

The region

Central Queensland straddles the Tropic of Capricorn, which gives the station its name. Rockhampton is the beef capital of Australia, Gladstone is a major industrial port, and the Central Highlands around Emerald are known for mining and farming. The station follows cattle and agriculture, mining and energy, the ports, the Great Barrier Reef islands off the coast, and community life across the region.
