[3] Previously, a low-powered RSL station, Capital TV, broadcast to the Cardiff area from 2002 to 2009, when analogue transmissions ceased from the Wenvoe transmitter.
Made TV's Cardiff and Bristol stations also shared a regional managing director, Chris James.
[7] In July 2016, the channel reported it claimed a weekly audience of 160,000 viewers,[8] including nearly 100,000 for its evening news programmes and 70,000 for the nightly magazine show The Lowdown.
In February 2017, a revamp of the station's local output led to the launch of a flagship two-hour live magazine show on weeknights, The Crunch Cardiff, incorporating news, sport, current affairs and entertainment.
On 2 January 2018, Made in Cardiff ceased broadcasting as a sole local channel and was replaced on all platforms by a generic Made Television networked feed, including a daily three-hour block of local news programming for six of the network's licence areas, including Cardiff.
