Network One

Network One was a small "independent" network, consisting of mostly low-powered television stations, scattered across the Continental United States, similar to Urban America Television, America One, or the better-known Ion (formerly PAX). The network officially launched on December 1, 1993, around the same time as Channel America and the American Independent Network, but shut down on November 13, 1997.

"Alternative" programming

Focusing on "alternative" programming, the network consisted of various B-Grade movies, beauty pageants, anime, and episodes of the series '' Night Flight'' and '' Bohemia Afterdark'' (a Portland, Oregon-based music video show). Classic episodes of the 1950s " hard-boiled" crime drama '' Lock-Up'' with Macdonald Carey were featured as well. Commercials were filled with advertisements for 1-900 chat lines with a more mature focus.

List of former affiliates

Most affiliates have since, either gone independent, switched affiliations to another television network, or have simply gone off the air. Some, however, have simply turned into rebroadcasters for other stations.

Network One was also available nationwide on home satellite via Satcom C-1 transponder #11 (F1-11).
