In 1963, three companies applied for a second television station. A commission was set up to receive these applications. The companies were the Atlantic Broadcasting Company, owners of ZFB Radio, the Bermuda Broadcasting Company, owners of ZBM-TV and the Tele Radio Company, headed by television engineer Eugene Woods, who worked at ZBK-TV (channel 10, 1955 to 1959).
Until 2014, there was a third station on the island, VSB-TV channel 11, an NBC affiliate, owned by the locally based DeFontes Group. All of these television stations are commercial - there is no equivalent to the US's PBS, and the UK's BBC in Bermuda. Another TV station, Fresh Creations, is a community TV station.
