[edit] History

In May 2002, Progressive Broadcasting Corporation ventured to UHF television through UNTV 37. UNTV started as a television counterpart to NU 107, airing rock-related music videos. In its early years, UNTV gained a cult following through the program Strangebrew, a.k.a. Ang show na may tama. In 2004, however, UNTV became the home of Ang Dating Daan and gradually reduced and eventually abandoned airing rock music videos. Since then it has become a 24-hour TV station, airing not only ADD Programs, but also news, public service and information programming.
