STQ is an Australian television station, licensed to, and serving the regional areas of Queensland. The station is owned and operated by the Seven Network from studios located in Maroochydore on the Sunshine Coast. The callsign STQ stands for Sunshine Television, Queensland.

History

The station began as two different operators:

WBQ later changed its callsign to SEQ (as in South East Queensland), and its on-air name to "Sunshine Television", with its slogan Leading the Way. MVQ also changed its on-air name to "Tropical Television" at the same time. And as a long time broadcaster of Seven Network programs, as well as of the Brisbane Seven News edition on BTQ, as these were then under Christopher Skase's ownership then these two began preparations for aggregation in 1988-89 as the Seven affiliates for viewers in regional Queensland.

When Queensland was aggregated at the end of 1990, SEQ-8 and MVQ-6 operationally merged to become The Sunshine Television Network, and thus became the regional Queensland affiliate of the Seven Network, adopting its new slogan Love You Queensland with a matching jingle based on BTQ's in the 1980s while reformating its news service to its partner network. A new logo also debuted with the logo presentation similar to 7's but with a map of Queensland on the top.

STQ is the call sign of a regional television station in Queensland, Australia.
