PTV4

Background
People's Television Network is a government-owned television station launched on February 2, 1974, as the Government Television (GTV). It was renamed as Maharlika Broadcasting System (MBS) in 1980, and was renamed again as New TV 4 in 1986 (only for two months), during the People Power Revolution.

1st (known) Logo (1977-September 1978)


Logo: In a light-colored (color is still unknown, presumed green) background (on top), we see the words "GTV Network" stacked on top of each other inside a TV tube, and below it are the words "BROADCAST PLAZA" in a darker-colored background (on the bottom). It later cuts to showcase several provincial/regional television stations. GTV 3 Cebu and GTV 4 Bacolod are the only ones with its own logos. It later cuts to a text reading, "Because Our Viewers Count A Lot" (which was their slogan at the time).

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: A funky tune with a calm announcer.

Availability: Extinct. The logo that was found is in full grayscale and it is unknown if there was a color variant of this logo.

2nd Logo (September 1978-1980)
Logo: In a (Filipino) TV Time's And For Your Station ID article about GTV, there were two logos that was described (in just one page), one for CNDE (Citizen's Network for Developmental Entertainment), and one for NMPC (National Media Production Center):


 * CNDE: In a blue background, there is a big yellow numerical 4 with curved corners accompanied by "CNDE" and "GTV" stacked onto each other. The text, "CNDE" is a bit smaller than the text, "GTV".
 * NMPC: It starts off with an oscilloscope, followed by the "electronic" movements of the sun and the three stars merging with the red and blue background to form the Philippine flag, and then was changed into the "New Society" flag (probably referring to the New Society Movement). It then instantly disperses to form the number 4.
 * MPI: There is a huge layered number 4 in the left side with the text "GTV" under it, accompanied by the text "MINISTRY OF PUBLIC INFORMATION" stacked onto each other in the right. There is also the "golden sun" symbol from the Philippine flag on top of the said text.

FX/SFX:


 * CNDE: None.
 * NMPC: Possibly scanimate.
 * MPI: Unknown.

Music/Sounds:


 * CNDE: An announcer saying, "This is the Citizen's Network for Developmental Entertainment."
 * NMPC and MPI: Unknown.

Music/Sound Variants: In 1979, The network celebrated the International Year of the Child. There are three variants of this according to the TV Times article:


 * "This is the Citizen's Network for Developmental Entertainment. You're on the new Channel 4 in celebration of the International Year of the Child."
 * "This is the International Year of the Child throughout the world, throughout all earth, on the Citizen's Network for Developmental Entertainment, Your very own Channel 4."
 * "You're on the Citizen's Network for Developmental Entertainment. This is your Channel 4 now celebrating the International Year of the Child."

Availability: Extinct. The logos are currently lost. The MPI logo was seen as an image in the first page, but there was no description of it. It is probably because only the first page of the article was shown in this post:

Legacy: The TV Times article that was mentioned above is an article from August 1979.

2nd Logo (1983?-1984?)


Logo: In a night sky background, we see a blue grid-like pattern moving from the top. The camera pans above the grid, and three red grid-like towers are seen, with two searchlights behind them. The camera later zooms into the middle tower and the Maharlika Broadcasting System logo fades in. There are some sparkles appearing on top of the tower. It later cuts to a black background with streaks of colors hitting the center of the screen, while their secondary logo, which is the number 4 in a circle (similar to KITV's logo from 1973-1975), wipes down revealing itself.
