GLV/BCV

GLV and BCV are Australian television stations licensed to serve Traralgon, Bendigo and the region of Victoria.

GLV-10 in Traralgon was the first regional television station to launch in Australia on 9 December 1961,[1] originally covering the Gippsland and Latrobe Valley areas.

The Melbourne pickup was a Rhode and Schwarz off-air receiver with AWA return microwave links to the Studio.

Since the station had no video recording equipment, engineers needed to rely on picking up the original signal at the transmitter site to relay back to the studio.

In 1982, the three stations merged as the Southern Cross TV8 television network, sharing a common stylised flag logo and programming schedule.

Between 21 March 2011 and 19 June 2015, viewers in Shepparton and the Goulburn Valley received a trial regional news magazine program called Weeknights at 6:30pm on weekdays.
