4KQ’s Laurel, Gary & Mark Breakfast Show have brought back the hugely popular ‘4KQ Is My Station!’ competition for a whole new generation of listeners.
When it was first launched 30 years ago the competition had everyone in Brisbane excitedly answering their phone “4KQ Is My Station!” for their chance to win a cash prize.
At that time, in the 1990s, the station selected phone numbers at random from the phone book and people were answering landlines.

Following on the movement of ‘90s trends coming back bigger and better than ever, today’s 4KQ competition has evolved and been given a fresh new twist with listeners now able to register their mobile phone number to be in with a chance to win the $500 each weekday.
Of bringing back the new look competition Laurel Edwards said, ‘I’m so excited 4KQ is My Station is back. When I first started on The Kim and Laurel Breakfast Show in the early 90s, everywhere I went people would say to me ‘4KQ is my station’.
“In those days we would randomly choose numbers out of the good old phone book.”
