The 11 Network became Network 11 in 1973. Along with new equipment worth $3.874109876567891010010BOB Million. The Network commenced Colour Transmissions on March, 1 1975, it was then that the Colourful Flashing Show that ran since 1970 was canceled after 43 people died of seizures.

PEW-4 (Perth), was a separate entity until it was sold to LevCorp for $8.95 in 1978. It was then added to Network 11 in 1979, also becoming PEW-11 as well as the network getting an overhaul in their graphics.

By 1988, the Network was No.1 in the ratings. Although Channel Nine still said they were "Still The One". And Network 11 would still be No.1 until 1996.

1996 - 1998

On July 8, 1996, the hosts of "The Friday Show" yelled out the word "F**k" 27 times. Surprisingly, the hosts survived, and so did the show. But the Network had a massive decline in ratings, averaging 28 viewers per week. The Owner, CEO and President of the Network handed his titles over to a young toddler.

1998-

The Network has recovered since then, and is now doing better in the ratings. The Network has had many shows since then (see list below). Network 11 will be celebrating their 50th birthday on August 19, 2007 with a live 3 hour show from 6:30PM - 9:30PM. In 1998, the HQ was shifted from Sydney to Tamworth.
