This broadcast area was only limited to the Bangkok Metropolitan Area during its early years. On 26 August 1975, TV3 became the first commercial channel in collaboration with MCOT bringing Thais the live coverage of the Bangkok Southeast Asian Peninsular Games. The same thing was also done in 1985. On 26 August 1972, TV3 became the first commercial channel in collaboration with MCOT bringing Thais the live coverage of the Munich Olympics. The same thing was also done in 1976 and 1980. On 1 January 1985, TV3 launched its first teletext service known as ''ข่าวเขียน''. In 1996 the service's name was changed to ''Infonet''. It was shut down on 1 January 2008. Between 1981 to 31 March 1986, TV3 had joint news program with TV9 (present-day Modernine TV). TV3 had its own news service again on 1 April 1986. On 1 January 1987, TV3 television audio stereo transmissions began in the Bangkok Metropolitan Area. It was the first channel in Thailand to adopt stereo broadcasting. It transmits using the Zweikanalton stereo transmission system over TV3's UHF broadcast in Bangkok. Later in the 1990s, the stereo transmission was introduced into their VHF broadcast. TV3 was also experimenting with bilingual transmission over Zweikanalton for a short period of time in the 1990s. TV3 transmits for 3-hours from 19:00 to 22:00 Bangkok Time between 26 March 1970 to 31 December 1989. 6-hour broadcasting from 16:00 to 22:00 Bangkok Time was introduced on 1 January 1990. TV3 once had 24-hour broadcasting shortly in 1997, but due to the 1997 Asian financial crisis, it was lifted. 24-hour transmission is back since 1 January 2005. Until late-2004, TV3 broadcasts for 6-hours a day and finally adopting 24-hour broadcasting on 31 December 2004. On 1 January 2001, TV3 was the first channel in Thailand to broadcast a 3D-movie. The movie, Jaws 3, required the viewers to have a pair of anaglyph glasses that can either be bought from certain stores partnered with TV3 for the event or attained from elsewhere (i.e. a 3D comic book the viewer already has). In 2013, TV3 is going to change DTT signal from DMB-T to DVB-T and broadcast in two channels, one in SD and one in HD. Currently, TV3 broadcast SD only. In April 2014, the digital channels are 3 Family, SD and HD Version of 3 Original has launched, with different schedules from the original Channel 3, which continued to be broadcast through analog terrestrial, digital satellite and cable. This was due to the digital channels being licensed to BEC Multimedia Co. Ltd., whereas the original Channel 3, now referred to as Channel 3 Original, was operated under a concession from MCOT by Bangkok Entertainment Co. Ltd (or BEC). On 1 September the same year, the NBTC withdrew analog television from must-carry status, requiring the analog Channel 3 to be withdrawn from satellite and cable. This ultimately led to an Administrative Court order for programming on the analog channel to be simulcast on 3 HD, starting 10 October. 〔(【引用サイトリンク】The Nation">title=All horses at the digital-TV gate thanks to tricky compromise )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Channel 3 (Thailand)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
