History
- September 11, 1963 - PTV began its broadcasts in Cebu via Channel 11, a frequency originally owned by Associated Broadcasting Corporation (now TV5 Network, Inc.), with the call sign DYMT-TV until President of the Philippines Ferdinand Marcos declared Martial Law on September 21, 1972.
- February 2, 1974 - During the Martial Law era, the station reopened as DYGT-TV and became an owned-and-operated station of the National Media Production Center as Government Television (GTV) under Lito Gorospe and later by then-Press Secretary Francisco Tatad. It was the first television station in Central Visayas.
- 1978 - DYGT-TV switched affiliation to Banahaw Broadcasting Corporation, with its new call sign DYCW-TV. On the same year, GTV was transferred to Channel 3 under the call sign DYCB-TV, then was renamed Maharlika Broadcasting System (MBS) in 1980.
- February 24, 1986 - The station was officially rebranded as People's Television (PTV).
