ABC Capricornia radio station is celebrating 95 years of service to central Queensland, having been established in 1931 under the original call sign 4RK [1]. The station predates the Australian Broadcasting Corporation itself, which was founded in 1932, making it one of the organisation's earliest regional outlets [1]. As ABC's first local radio station in Queensland, Capricornia has provided the Rockhampton area with sports coverage, emergency broadcasting, and community-focused programming for nearly a century [1].
The station relocated to its current premises on Quay Street in 1963 [1]. Among its notable contributors was sports reporter Terry Moore, who served the station for more than 35 years covering rugby league before his death in October 2001 [1]. Moore received a special commendation letter and a service medal from ABC Chairman Donald McDonald in June 2001, recognising his decades of dedicated work [1].
