Austext is the former Australian teletext service based in Brisbane, Queensland. The service was carried and operated by the Seven Network and its affiliates over most of Australia. It carried news, financial information, weather, lottery results, a TV guide and other information, as well as closed captioning for programs. The service was freely available for viewing on any television, computer or other device with teletext functionality and the ability to access and view Channel Seven, or one of Seven's regional affiliates Prime, GWN or Southern Cross. Seven first began testing the Teletext services in 1977 with useful information being transmitted in 1982 in Brisbane and Sydney. Austext was shut down in September 2009.[1]
Over the years, the service has had various names including SevenTel.
