Aliw Channel 23 (stylized as ALIW Channel 23) is a Philippine television network owned and operated by Aliw Broadcasting Corporation, a subsidiary of the ALC Group of Companies. The network is carried on UHF Channel 23 on digital terrestrial TV in Metro Manila. The station's broadcast facilities and studios are located at the 5th and 20th Floors, Citystate Centre, 709 Shaw Boulevard, Barangay Oranbo, Pasig, and its transmitter is located in Nuestra Señora dela Paz Subdivision, Sumulong Highway, Barangay Sta. Cruz, Antipolo (sharing facilities with sister station 97.9 Home Radio). [1] [2]
On January 5, 2022, the National Telecommunications Commission awarded Channel 23 to Aliw Broadcasting Corporation under a provisional authority license. The channel was formerly used by Studio 23 and S+A of ABS-CBN Corporation. This marks Aliw's venture into television. [3]
On May 6, 2022, the channel launched its test broadcast with a live video feed of DWIZ 882. [4] On August 10, 2022, the channel started carrying the brand IZTV, with the tagline The News Company. It was officially launched on November 18. [5]
On January 30, 2023, the channel rebranded as ALIW Channel 23, coinciding with the reformatting of Home Radio's provincial stations under the DWIZ network and the revamp of DWIZ's programming. It was officially launched on June 23, 2023 through a launch event held at The Podium in Mandaluyong, with the tagline Kumpleto Na Ang Channel Mo (Your channels are now complete) which was attended by Aliw officials, personalities and employees and distinguished personalities from politics, business, showbiz and sports.
