It was presided over by the then Prime Minister of Thailand Field Marshal Thanom Kittikachorn.Three years later, on 19 June 2017, Channel 7 was given authorisation from the National Broadcasting and Telecommunications Commission to shut down its analogue frequencies in the rest of the country, in order to replace them with its digital channels on DTT.Thus, the network was expected to stop broadcasting on analogue 1 January 2018, but the process was postponed to 16 May 2018 and eventually completed on 16 June.That year was the first time its morning news surpassed Channel 3's in ratings, coupled by adminsitrative changes and challenges.[4] In July 2020, the Election Commission requested Channel 7 to cease broadcast of the television drama series 'Love Song of the Gun Crack' over one of the actors, Krungsrivilai Sutin Phueak, who decided to run as the people's representative for Samut Prakan's 5th District.
