Rupert Murdoch had acquired what was then the 0-10 Network in 1979 and had Channel ATV 0 in Melbourne change its call sign from 0 to 10 in January 1980 to make the network complete.
On the night it aired (Sunday 20 January 1980), the 0-10 Network officially became known as Network Ten to reflect ATV-0's transition to ATV-10 - although the Brisbane station continued to broadcast as TVQ-0 until 10 September 1988.
