History
After being in operation since 25 January 1958, Channel 5 is proud of its achievement in building a strong following amongst Thai television audiences. So much so that the public's perception is that the Station has been around for much longer than this. Broadcast signals go through a network of 31 transmitters dotted around the country. Daily transmission is 24 hours, but regular programs begins at 5:00 am until 3:00 am the next day. Between 3:00 am and 5:00 am broadcasts teleshopping.
Channel 5 currently broadcasts under VHF (Very High) Frequency transmission on Channel 5 for Analogue broadcasting, and UHF channel 36 for Digital broadcasting.
Channel 5 is also available over TrueVisions on Channel 2.
