History

BC Channel was its name during broadcast tests. It was launched under the name BCTV on 7 July 2009 by PT Oxcy, an advertising agency at Surabaya. This station broadcast on channel 40 UHF, later on 29 UHF. It was intended for its broadcast coverage to gradually include Surabaya, Sidoarjo, Gresik, Lamongan, Pasuruan, Kamal, Bangkalan, and Probolinggo.
After 2 years, profits were not achieved. Operational costs could not be covered by advertising revenues. Because of this, according to the claim of Bambang Purwadi, BCTV opted to cooperate with Kompas Gramedia Group. Bambang Purwadi denied that KG had taken over BCTV's shares.
After the absorption of BCTV into the Kompas TV network, its name changed to Kompas TV Surabaya on 5 November 2012, and to Kompas TV East Java on 20 October 2017. The name only shows in regional programming.
