History

edit

On January 13, 2019, AksyonTV was rebranded into all-sports network 5 Plus.[6] With this move, Radyo5 programs that were simulcast on AksyonTV moved to the then-unnamed channel. Meanwhile, 5 Plus, which took over DWNB-TV's terrestrial (analog) TV space, moved to Cignal channel 15. However, on January 17, 2019, just 4 days after the move, the Radyo5 simulcast channel was reassigned from channel 6 to channel 1, temporarily replacing Cignal's community promotion channel. 5 Plus later took over channel 6, but remained simulcasting on channel 15 until February 17, 2019.

On February 18, 2019, the same standalone channel was soft-launched as One PH, reverting its Cignal channel assignment back to channel 6. Alongside this, Radyo5 unveiled its new refurbished studios and new content was announced to be added to the program line-up of Radyo5 and One PH.

On July 31, 2019, One PH, was formally launched by Cignal TV as a 24/7 all-Filipino news, public affairs, and entertainment channel and is categorized into three blocks: NewsKom (News Komentaryo/News Commentary) (newscasts and talk shows), KKK (Katarungan, Karapatan at Kaalaman/Justice, Rights, and Knowledge) (public service and infotainment) and SnS (Showbiz and Sports).

In August 2019, selected Radyo5 and One PH programs (Morning Calls, One Balita, One Balita Pilipinas, Wag Po! and Turbo Time with Mike and Lindy) begin their airing on either simulcast or delayed basis on TV5 as part of programming revamp spearheaded by TV5 Network's new CEO Jane Basas.

On March 8, 2020, One PH was given a slightly revamped look (along with One News and the rebranded One Sports and One Sports+) and reassigned to Cignal channel 1, replacing the community promotion channel, while One Sports (launched as a free-to-air channel replacing 5 Plus) was reassigned to channel 6.

On March 17, 2020, One PH along with One News, temporarily suspended its regular programming as an effect of the Luzon-wide "enhanced community quarantine" due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The news channel aired the special edition of One News Now.

On May 22, 2020, One PH successfully began conducting test transmissions on digital terrestrial television via DWET-TV subchannel 5.3 in Mega Manila. This development signifies the reinstatement of Radyo5's "RadyoVision" format on free-to-air television after its predecessor, AksyonTV carried over most of the radio station's programs from 2011 to 2019.[7] This would later spread out in other cities of the Philippines starting in mid-2021, in preparation for the launching of the network's DTTB service, Sulit TV.

In December 2020, Cignal TV and Philstar Media Group took over the operations and programming of Radyo5 respectively. With this development, some of the station's programs aired their respective final episodes during the final weeks of December 2020. On January 1, 2021, One PH's programming (except for overnight slots) was integrated into the programming schedule of Radyo5.

On January 1, 2021, all programs of One PH are simulcast on One Sports via live streaming on its website, as well as 92.3 Radyo5 True FM (except overnight slots). The livestream later reverted to One Sports a few days later.

On February 1, 2024, One PH was removed from TV5's digital TV subchannel lineup and was replaced by the mirror feed of RPTV, a joint venture of TV5 and Nine Media/RPN which replaced CNN Philippines in analog TV channel 9 and digital TV channel 19. However, selected programming from One PH is carried over on RPTV, and the channel itself remains available in Cignal, and other cable and satellite TV operators nationwide.

Programming

Main article: List of programs broadcast by True FM/One PH

The majority of its programming is sourced and simulcasted from 105.9 True FM, a practice that was carried over from its predecessor AksyonTV, and following suit with other Mega Manila news radio stations. The rest of its content is One PH's original content and brokered programming which are not aired, but since 2021, also simulcasting on Radyo5 (except for overnight slots, ABS-CBN News' Rated Korina, and during PBA sa Radyo5 coverage days). The integrated programming of Radyo5 and One PH ended upon the launch of the former's new inhouse programs in January 2023, Starting January 29, 2023, its integrated Sunday programming, except for Healing Mass sa Veritas and Word of God Network, were axed, and replaced it with new and additional music programming. Starting May 20, 2023, Radyo5 added new music blocks to its Saturday programming. From July 1 until July 29, 2023, the noontime variety show program E.A.T. (now known as Eat Bulaga!) started to simulcast with TV5 until 1pm from Monday to Friday and 11:30 am to 2:30 pm on Saturday.
