ABC Southern

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

ABC Southern is a statewide television network, airing the programs of the national broadcaster, the Australian Broadcasting Corporation.

The main station is ABS-2 Adelaide, with studios in the suburb of Collinswood and transmitter at Mount Lofty. The station is transmitted throughout the state via a series of relay transmitters, and via satellite to areas that cannot receive normal terrestrial television signals.

The schedule is similar to the national schedule, with some exceptions.

The 7.00pm news bulletin is presented by Dominique Schwartz or Michael Smyth.
