Channel One MTV to launch officially

It is reported that Channel One MTV will be launching on their new frequencies on 6th February and the new programme lineup will commence on 7th February. We have not got any reports whether they will operate as a 24 hour television station and the programming that will be carried. However we feel as it is with the case of Art TV which shows CNN, ETV which shows Channel News Asia it is highly likely that MTV will show Voice of America TV, however this is not confirmed, plus their current programming including new additions.

It also seems likely that Channel One MTV will shift totally to the new frequency and Shakthi TV will ramp up programming on their existing frequency since it will be for Shakthi TV only. It is likely though that Channel One MTV, Shakthi TV will become 24 hour television channels.

It should also be noted that a few areas have experienced an improvement in the reception of UHF 58 and 51 but most of the areas are still unable to receive the channel clearly.

At the moment we are unable to obtain confirmation on any of the information given above. We would like our fellow bloggers to update us on any information regarding the new and improved Channel One MTV such as the whether it will be a 24 hour station and the new programming that will be introduced. We hope that the management of Channel One MTV will update us on their plans.
