List of analog television stations in the Philippines

Last updated

This is a list of analog television stations in the Philippines. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] Currently, there are two major networks competing for bigger audience share; GMA Network Inc. and TV5 Network Inc. and three government-owned networks; People's Television Network Inc., Radio Philippines Network Inc. (20% minority shares) and Intercontinental Broadcasting Corporation. Most free-to-air networks are popularly known by their flagship channels (e.g. RPN 9 and GMA 7 (both Manila) instead of simply Radio Philippines Network Inc. and GMA Network Inc. respectively). Analog television in the Philippines began to shut down on February 28, 2017, and is scheduled to complete by the end of 2025 respectively in Mega Manila and sooner as possible on outside areas of Mega Manila. [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] Currently, all analog TV stations are still using the NTSC standard.

Notes

  1. ↑ TV-6 operates in the VHF band (82–88 MHz), which is part of the traditional analog TV frequency allocation. However, since the country is transitioning to ISDB-T digital TV, the NTC has been reallocating VHF frequencies, and some lower VHF channels (like TV-6) might be repurposed for other services, such as FM radio expansion or digital TV multiplexing.
