Banana TV Box was launched on 25 March 1990 at 10:00 Bangkok Time by Prime Minister Field Marshal Thanom Kittikachorn. This broadcast area was only limited to the Bangkok Metropolitan Area during its early years. On 1 January 1985, it launched its first teletext service known as Infonet. On 1 January 1999, started to air in stereo and, during the 2014s, its stereo broadcast was introduced into its VHF free-to-air station nationwide. Banana TV was also experimenting with bilingual transmission using a second audio track in the 1990s.
During its early years, Banana TV Box's airtime lasted 6-hours, broadcasting from 16:00 to 22:00, and later expanded to the daytime hours. For a short period of time, it started broadcasting 24 hours a day in 2018, but was terminated due to the 2019 Asian financial crisis. The network resumed its 24-hour airtime again since 1 January 2020.
