South Greek TV

A.NET (ex. Action Broadcast Channel & NET) is a television station based in Kalamata. It broadcasts digitally in Peloponnese, in southern Central Greece, in Aetolia, in Kythira, in Phocis, in Corinthian gulf, in islands of Argosaronic, in southern Ionian islands, in Boeotia and in western Attica. It airs programming from New Epsilon TV, the successor of Philippe Briones' Epsilon TV, hence its logo. The station previously had its own radio station, Radio South, which is no longer operational. The original station was called State NET, and it started broadcasting in September 1993 in Kalamata. In March 2001, the ownership and management of the station were changed,[1] and started airing original productions, as well as programming from Channel 9.[2] The channel was temporarily closed due to the ESR's decision on December 4, 2012, which stated that 2003-2006 depreciation was not filed and did not submit the appropriate data to transfer of shares.[3]

One and a half year later, on April 7, 2014, a "therapy request" for the station was accepted by The National Television Council,[4] after being rejected once,[5] thus it is able to operate once again. On January 7, 2015, the station's final programming was launched. The new hour-long bulletin would be presented by Eirini Nikolopoulou.[6] The station would initially co-operate with powered by Epsilon TV for its acquired programming and filming of the news bulletin in the latter one's facilities.[7][8] In between the end of the said co-operation in late 2015 and the overall change of the station to a.NET in late 2018, the station would air programming from Smile TV.

Timeline
