Its studios and Transmitter are located at 8F Queensway Building, 118 Amorsolo St. Legaspi Village, Makati City. This station is currently having a test broadcast, but operates on weak signal only.
History
Fourteen years after DWXI-AM 1314 was launched, El Shaddai leader Mike Velarde launched a TV station that was put on Channel 11 (from MBC, the original owners of the frequency allocation; now GMA News TV). It shows religious TV Shows, including El Shaddai. In 1998, ZOE Broadcasting Network through its head Jesus is Lord leader Eddie Villanueva bought Channel 11 and DBS TV moved to Channel 35. Around 2004, it ceased broadcasting due to poor ratings & lack of funds. Despite this, El Shaddai appointments & events are still heard over DWXI-AM.
On September 15, 2012, during the Weekly Family Appointment with El Shaddai at Amvel City, Bro. Mike announced to the audience and to its listeners and viewers that DBS granted its TV equipments for DBS TV's comeback as early as possible. On July 14, 2016, DBS TV-35 resumed its operations as a test broadcast. As of this moment, it only operates on weak signal.
