Hope Channel Philippines is a religious network of the Seventh-day Adventist Church in the Philippines. Its TV stations are owned by Gateway UHF Television Broadcasting, while its radio stations are either owned and/or operated by Digital Broadcasting Corporation or AdventistMedia. [3] Founded and launched on September 26, 2010, in the South Philippines [4] and in January 2011 in Luzon and Visayas. [5] [6] It was first seen on UHF Channel 25 in Cagayan de Oro in the Northern Mindanao region.
In Luzon, this station aired from 5am-12 midnight on UHF Channel 45, Manila, but it became a full-time station in mid-2017 after Gateway UHF Broadcasting quietly ended their ties with 3ABN. The network programming is similar to Hope Channel International programming but in Filipino language. [7]
Gateway UHF TV was formed in 1992 when it was granted a legislative franchise to operate television stations on the UHF band under Republic Act 7223. [1]
On June 1, 2001, Gateway UHF TV began its operations on UHF 45 in Metro Manila, carrying HopeTV of the Seventh-Day Adventist Church (SDA). In 2011, with the arrival of global Christian lifestyle network Hope Channel in the Philippines, the SDA acquired Gateway UHF Television Broadcasting. [8] In 2015, the company began broadcasting on digital terrestrial television.
In 2018, Gateway UHF TV's broadcast franchise was renewed. [8] [9]
