[edit] History
In August 1978 the station was successful in its application to the Australian Broadcasting Authority for a licence, and subsequently began a series of short broadcasts from temporary studios. The fledgling station started to make regular broadcasts to inner Melbourne in the early 1980s between 9am and 4pm from its studios at the Prince of Wales Hotel.
In 1985 it moved into its permanent studio of 15 years in St Kilda, from where it started to broadcast 24 hours a day to greater Melbourne in 1987. In November 2001 the station moved again, this time to Collingwood.
