History

[edit]

TRT 3 started test transmissions on October 2, 1989, as "3. Kanal", and is now TRT's third most watched TV station. TRT 3's transmissions are realized through a time-share with TRT GAP and Turkish Grand National Assembly TV (TBMM TV). TRT 3's programs mainly consist of sports, education, culture, music and news. Like most TRT channels, advertisements are allowed on this channel. Besides, TRT 3 broadcasts programs in vernaculars and dialects still practiced today in the daily lives of Turkish people.

Between 1991 and 2008 for Turksat Kablo TV viewers, Spanish public broadcaster TVE Internacional will broadcast after close down TRT 3.
