After the establishment of the "Three Radio Laws" (Radio Law, Broadcasting Law, and Radio Supervisory Committee Establishment Law) in 1950, the Shinano Mainichi Shimbun attempted to establish a private broadcasting service.[1]: 1 At its first meeting in March 1951, several companies, politicians, and financial institutions elected Shuntaro Katsuta (the then vice president of Shinano Mainichi Shimbun) as the president of Shinano Broadcasting.[1]: 1 On October 18 of the same year, they obtained a preparatory broadcast license.[1]: 1
On March 25, 1952 at 5pm, Shinano Broadcasting started to be on air as the first commercial radio broadcaster in the prefecture.[1]: 2 Upon its launch, the coverage area was limited to Nagano City, which led to it expanding its coverage area to other cities in the prefecture between 1953 and 1957.[1]: 5–6 A week later, the company name was changed to Shin-etsu Broadcasting after it received funding from the local government of Jōetsu City in Niigata Prefecture.[1]: 3
In June 1953, Shin-etsu Broadcasting received an application for a TV license.[1]: 9 Due to the mountainous terrain of Nagano Prefecture, the broadcaster started to build a main transmitter on Mount Utsukushigahara, the first in Japan to have a broadcast transmitter on a mountaintop.[1]: 9 On March 14, 1958, it received a broadcast license.[1]: 11 And on October 25, 1958 11:30am, SBC started broadcasting on TV.[1]: 12 At that time, it aired programs from TBS and Nippon TV.[1]: 14 On March 1, 1959, it also aired programs from Fuji TV and NET (currently known as TV Asahi), the same day the networks started to go on air (Nippon TV, TV Asahi, and Fuji TV programming gradually moved to TV Shinshu, Nagano Broadcasting, and Nagano Asahi Broadcasting when they opened).[1]: 14 In August 1959, SBC joined the Japan News Network.[1]: 16–17
On October 1, 1964, SBC started broadcasting in color on the eve of the 1964 Tokyo Olympics.[1]: 44 As part of the 15th anniversary of the broadcaster, they participated in the establishment of Nagano Prefectural Shinano Art Museum on October 1, 1966.[1]: 47–49 In 1979, SBC alongside Minaminihon Broadcasting, Aomori Broadcasting, and Shikoku Broadcasting won the Broadcast Cultural Fund Award.[1]: 119–120
1 October 2006 Digital terrestrial television was started (Utsukushigahara Main Station, Zenkoji-daira Station, Matsumoto Station, Okaya-Suwa Station, Ina Station and Iida Station).
