History
The National Executive Cabinet issued a license on May 6, 1983, authorizing Junín TV S.R.L. to run a VHF television station on channel 10 within Junín, Buenos Aires Province. The enterprise was initiated by Mario Pizzolo and María Gauchat de Pizzolo.
Broadcasting commenced officially on December 4, 1985, under the name LRH 450 TV Canal 10 de Junín. The original founders maintained ownership through the entity Junín TV S.A., which was formed in 1986.
On September 23, 1987, COMFER granted permission for Junín TV to establish relay stations in Chivilcoy and Pergamino on channels 8 and 12 respectively; nevertheless, only the Chivilcoy repeater on channel 12 received final approval.
In August 1999, Channel 10 was authorized to carry out experimental digital terrestrial transmissions utilizing the ATSC standard, with VHF channel 11 designated for these tests.
By the year 2002, Channel 10—then under the ownership of entrepreneur Carlos Ávila—and its affiliated channels América TV and CVN Cablevisión Noticias (currently known as A24) were incorporated into Multimedios América. This media conglomerate comprised Ávila, Daniel Vila (associated with Grupo UNO, now Grupo América), and Eduardo Eurnekian, uniting various television properties and holdings in Diario La Primera.
