The company was founded in March 2008 with the first broadcast transmission occurring in July 1992, under a temporary permit to carry the 1992 Summer Olympics held in Barcelona.[1]

TTV broadcasts SD analogue and HD digital (DVB-T) channels in the VHF/UHF frequency bands. The HD channels, available in Honiara, are a mixture of overseas sport, news and entertainments channels.
The SD analogue channels are relayed to five other locations in four of the Solomons nine Provinces.
TTV conforms to the Australian television transmission standards.

History
The first free-to-air television (FTA) transmission was broadcast by Our Telekom in July 1992, when the Barcelona Olympic Games was transmitted from a low-powered VHF transmitter located in Honiara.
In June 1994 Our Telekom gained the FTA TV broadcast rights for the FIFA World Football World Cup. Our Telekom and TTV gain rights for all its broadcast content and has long since stood against any form of piracy of programming.
In 2006 One News Limited, a privately owned company was established to operate FTA TV to produce programmes in Pidgin and English including local news, sport, entertainment, educational programmes. Our Telekom supported One News (later known as One TV) by permitting it to broadcast on its VHF channel.
In March 2008 Our Telekom formed the wholly owned Telekom Television Ltd and gave the company a mandate to plan and develop FTA television across the Solomon Islands.
In 2016 the first Parliamentary broadcast was aired. Transmission of HD digital services also commenced in Honiara. [2] Over subsequent years, more services have been added to the network.
