History
Channel One was launched on April 6th, 1944 as TBC, under the rule of Toralaq Republic. Antonio Marcos, the founder, and CEO of TBC was the operator of the network from 1944-1951.

TBC broadcased only 3 hours from 3:00pm-6:00 pm from Monday to Thursday. The day starts with an hour of children's programming (3:00pm-4:00pm), half-hour of news (4:00pm-4:30pm), TBC News at 4 (Now YinYang News@4), half hour of daily comedy program "The Edward Show", YinYang TV1's longest running program and gained popularity since the 40s (4:30pm-5:00pm), and one hour of women's programming (5:00pm-6:00pm), and the channel signs off with the Inner Indian Head test pattern.

In 1946, the channel started to broadcast 6 hours, from 12:00pm to 6:00pm. More shows were introduced to the channel.

On May 13, 1959, TBC started to broadcast daily 8 hours from 10:00 am to 6:00 pm. The first color Teledrama was "Three Men and Two Little Boys", started in 1952 and ended in 1973.

On July 1, 1958, the second television channel, TBC2 (now YinYang Two), was launched in color. TBC 2 runs 7:00am-10:00pm daily. TBC 2 mainly aired teledramas and movies. Due to a power problem at the Malodin Tower in 1961, TBC 2, along with TBC1 (then was just TBC), was temporarily shut down and went back on-air in 1964. On January 1, 1971, third television channel, TBC3 (now Ang Ikatlo) was launched.

In May 1966, TBC and TBC2 idents premiered. They go like The red T, blue B, and yellow C zooms out and the full company name zooms out of the bottom in a black background. Like TBC, in TBC2, the green 2 zooms out at the top. They were discontinued in July 1970 and started a new set of idents.

On July 18, 1975, Michael Anquan took over TBC, and announced that the TBC channel will be renamed to TBC1. While the launch of the news channel, TBC News (Now YYInc News Channel) in 1987, the channel revived its original 1966-1970 idents to all the channels created by the Toralaq Broadcasting Corporation.

On July 14, 1976, color transmissions started in some shows, with the exception of news. The staff announced that in 1977, color broadcasts will be on RCA and Technicolor broadcasting. On May 1, 1980, full-color transmissions started and news started in color as well in 1983.

At the time, only the rich and urban people, which made up 14% of the population, owned color television.

After Toralaq Republic's dissolution in 1999, TBC was split into two government-owned media organizations, NTVC and Voice of YinYangia. TBC 1 was renamed to NTVC 1.
