History
- Channel 9 Zamboanga was launched by First United Broadcasting Corporation in 1974. At that time, it was originally an affiliate of BBC/City2 from 1974 to 1986 then it later became an affiliate of ABS-CBN for the Zamboanga Peninsula area when BBC was shut down due to sequestration by the government. Programs were aired from 12:00 noon to 11:00pm, weekdays, and 9:00am to 12:00 m.n. on weekends. Local programming aired then on FUBC-9 were Cuentas Claras and FUBC News, the former affiliate of the national newscasts TV Patrol and The World Tonight. TV-9 carried a variant of the Star Network identification package in 1988–1989 in conjunction with the debut of satellite transmissions to the Sulu Archipelago and the entire Zamboanga Peninsula bringing a mix of both local and national programming, with the white star holding the tail of the white colored number 9 (later tri-colored in red, green and blue matching the national idents, but the numerical 3 was changed in early 1995).
- On January 1, 1995, ABS-CBN bought rival station DXLL-TV channel 3 from its owner RT Broadcasting. To consummate for the purchase, network affiliations were swapped between ABS-CBN and FUBC; with the former becoming an owned and operated station, and FUBC picking up the GMA affiliation on channel 9. GMA later picked up the Channel 9 frequency a year later.
- Since purchasing the station, GMA Zamboanga served as a relay station of flagship DZBB-TV channel 7 in Metro Manila, with limited local advertising.
- On August 28, 2017, GMA Zamboanga was reassigned to form the network's Mindanao super region. As part of the new development, it began simulcasting the first ever Mindanao-wide newscast One Mindanao, originating from GMA Davao (Channel 5), targeting the Cebuano-speaking population of Zamboanga City in addition to Chavacano.
