ADS-10

Background
ADS-10 is the current Adelaide affiliate of Network 10. it began broadcasting on 24 October 1959 as ADS-7. For most of its first 30 years, the station was affiliated with the Seven Network. In 1987, the station was sold to Network Ten. This lead to a frequency swap between ADS and SAS, the latter replacing ADS as the city's Seven affiliate.

Logo: On a sunset backdrop, three discs fly over an ocean before crossing the Adelaide skyline. They disappear into the background briefly before flying back across the foreground and finally reappearing in the centre of the frame. At this point, the discs flash and the letters t, e and n appear in each disc. The discs then converge to form the new logo which features the ford ten in the eurostile font, contained within a blue circle with a silver edge.

FX/SFX: CGI once again.

Music/Sounds: A triumphant fanfare based on the song from the then new Network Ten "That's Entertainment!" promo.

Availability: Extinct.
