C9TV
C9TV (Channel 9 Television) was a local television station based in Derry, Northern Ireland. The station's licences were awarded by the ITC (now Ofcom) in 1996 and allowed the station to broadcast to Derry, Limavady, Coleraine and Strabane, although broadcasts would not begin until the night of 17 October 1999.
The channel’s signal also spilled into County Donegal in the Republic and could be received in the northeast of the county. Along with Belfast's NvTv, C9TV was one of two local or 'restricted' television services in Northern Ireland. C9TV would eventually cease operations after years of suspected financial trouble in 2009.
Channel 9 Television, more informally known as "C9TV" was launched on the night of 17 October 1999 at approximately 6:30.
The network’s first ever broadcast consisted of a News On 9 bulletin, which featured Jimmy Cadden and Katrina Doherty welcoming viewers to an "important milestone" in Irish television history, with Jimmy Cadden quoting that those watching the broadcast were "witnesses to a historical event", the rest of the network’s broadcast day presumably consisted of further advertisements and local programmes.
The station broadcast from the Sheriff's Mountain UHF transmitter which is located in the Derry area located close to the Donegal border which gave the station a very wide broadcast area across the city, according to the station's 2001 Market Research, it had a potential viewership of over 250,000 people across its broadcast area which included the greater Derry City area, parts of Donegal, as well as the Strabane and Limavady areas.
Earlier on in the station's history, it broadcast a wide range of programming which catered a wide range of subjects, these included the "News On 9" programme which would become a staple of the channel, this was presented by Jimmy Cadden (from 1999-Late 2005) and Katrina Doherty (from 1999 to 2002). This programme covered significant events in the Derry area such as the 2000 opening of the City of Derry Airport as well as local events in the Derry City area such as Derry Halloween.
Other news presenters included Ross O'Sullivan (2000-c.2001) and Theresa Craig (2005–2007)
General programme presenters included Dan Clarke (who originated from Colorado, USA), Stephen Clements, Bronagh McElholm (who presented the stations weather reports during the channel's earlier period) and Frank Galligan, a former BBC Radio Foyle anchor.
