About ABC North Queensland
ABC North Queensland is the public broadcaster's local voice for the state's tropical north, based in Townsville under one of regional radio's oldest callsigns: 4QN, on air since 1936. Its reach spreads across a vast district - Bowen, Charters Towers, Ingham, Ayr and the communities between - where cyclone seasons and cattle prices make local radio genuinely matter.
The programming follows the ABC Local pattern: locally presented breakfast and mornings shows built around regional news, rural affairs, sport and weather, with ABC network content filling the rest of the day. The station also has broadcasting history in its veins - nationally heard country programs, Saturday Night Country among them, trace their origin to the North Queensland studios.
English-language and free through the ABC listen app, smart speakers and the live web stream, the station keeps the North connected to itself - an easy regional news-and-talk radio listen online, from Magnetic Island to anywhere in the world.
