About GRTS TV

Location: Gambia
Category: Public

The Gambia Radio and Television Services is the National Broadcaster of The Gambia. It provides relevant national programmes on both Radio & TV. The history of GRTS stems from the mergership of the older and more established Radio Gambia and the rather recent Television Channel.
Radio Gambia was the first media broadcaster in the Gambia, opened in 1962. Its historical base is Bakau (a town in the Gambia).
In December 1995, GRTS was commissioned by the Gambian government which began test transmissions under the Gambia Telecommunications Company (Gamtel). In 1996, it adopted its own television channel. The Station operates as a public service station based on the tradition of Radio Gambia. The Station's programmes are mostly news, public service announcements, education, entertainment and religious related (Islam and Christianity only, mostly Islam and nothing on Traditional African religion).
