TTV Main Channel is the primary free-to-air terrestrial television channel of the Taiwan Television company and is the first television channel launched in the Republic of China (Taiwan).
History
It was established on April 28, 1962, test transmissions on October 3, 1962 and officially inaugurated by the First Lady of the Republic of China Soong Mei-ling on October 10, 1962. The launch was the result of a joint Japan-Taiwan study group.[1]
In the mid-1970s (1974 and especially 1975), TTV expanded its transmitter network:
- Hualien: BET-25, channel 7;
- Yilan: BET-24, channel 10;
- Kaoshiung: BET-23, channel 7;
- Taitung: BET-26, channel 10;
- Yuanlin: BET-22, channel 12.[2]
On July 6, 2016, with the terrestrial launch of Taiwan Indigenous Television, the channel's LCN moved from channel 13 to channel 14.[3]
On October 12, 2020, TTV Main Channel converted its terrestrial feed to high-definition.[4]
Appearances

From the start of its television broadcasts in 1962 until the 1970s, TTV used a monochrome "bullseye"-style test card.[1] It was then replaced with the colour Philips PM5544 test card from the 1970s until 2014. Now replaced with EBU colour bars and SMPTE RP 219:2002 HDTV color bars.
