However, ABC Capricornia also uses a number of FM translators dotted throughout the region, enabling the station to be heard clearly in other towns, such as Gladstone and Biloela.

The 5:30 pm local news bulletin was also axed and was also replaced with a brief national update, read by the producer of the regional drive program.

The Gladstone-based reporter also presented ABC Capricornia's local afternoon news bulletins which were broadcast live from Gladstone.

ABC Capricornia is also the originating station for Gardening Talkback, a weekly gardening advice program with Tom Wyatt heard on a number of ABC Local Radio stations throughout Queensland between 10 am and 11 am every Friday morning.

Following the program's conclusion at the end of 2014, it was replaced with a relay of 612 ABC Brisbane's Afternoons with Kelly Higgins-Devine.
