Prime7 is an Australian television network owned by Prime Media Group Limited, and an affiliate of the Seven Network. Prime Television launched on 17 March 1962 as CBN/CWN in Orange and Dubbo, New South Wales, and has since expanded to cover regional New South Wales, Victoria and the Australian Capital Territory.

Prime7 along with GWN7 national broadcast facilities are based in Canberra, with playout facilities located at MediaHub (within the Sydney suburb of Ingleburn) Australia. Prime Media Group head office/administration is located in Pyrmont, Sydney.

Prime Television originally began as a group of separate stations and networks – Midstate Television in Orange, Dubbo and Griffith, RVN/AMV in Albury and Wagga Wagga, and'NEN/ECN in Tamworth and Taree.

CBN-8 Orange began on 17 March 1962, followed by CWN-6 Dubbo on 1 December 1965. The two stations were both licensed to Country Broadcasting Services (also the owner of radio station 2GZ in Orange). CWN was a full-time relay of CBN—the first Australian television station to relay another. The two stations thus formed the country's first regional television network.
