Former stations
| Station abbreviation | Station | Call sign | Reasons of the switch | Channel number at time of switch |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ATV | Aomori TV/青森テレビ | JOAI-TV | Dropped the secondary affiliation after a violation on their agreement in 1975. Currently the station airs TBS shows, as well as some Fuji TV and TV Tokyo shows. ANN/TV Asahi moved to RAB until 1991. | 38 |
| RAB | Aomori Hoso / 青森放送 | JOGR-TV | Secondary affiliation, dropped with launch of ABA in 1991. | 1 |
| TVI | TV Iwate / テレビ岩手 | JOII-TV | Now fully affiliated to NNN, ANN programming moved in 1996 to IAT. Some ANN programs that were not cleared by TVI aired on IBC. | 35 |
| MMT | Miyagi TV / 宮城テレビ放送 | JOMM-TV | Became a full affiliate of NNN/NNS when KHB began broadcasting in 1975. | 34 |
| NST | NST TV / 新潟総合テレビ | JONH-TV | Secondary affiliation. NST was a triple affiliate of FNN, NNN and ANN. NNN programming moved to TNN/TeNY in 1981 and TV Asahi programming moved to NT21/ux in 1983. | 35 |
| TSB | TV Shinshu / テレビ信州 | JONI-TV | Became a full NNN affiliate when ABN started broadcasting in 1991, taking over the TV Asahi schedule from TSB. | 30 |

| MBS◆ | MBS TV / 毎日放送 | JOOR-TV | Swapped networks with ABC in 1975 because of ownership issues: all stations owned (and linked) to the Asahi Shimbun were now required to become affiliates of TV Asahi. As a result, MBS was now a JNN/TBS affiliate, and is still a significant producer for the network. | 4 |
| NKT | Nihonkai TV / 日本海テレビジョン放送 | JOJX-TV | Secondary affiliation, from the founding of the network until 1989. BSS and TSK now carry some TV Asahi shows on their schedules. There is currently no primary ANN affiliate in the San-in area. | 1 |
