Television in El Salvador

Television in El Salvador consists of both local channels and foreign television, normally distributed through cable.

History

The first attempts to create television were made by the Mexican Rubén González on his own initiative in April 1956. In the same month, Boris Eserski, Guillermo Pinto and Tono Alfaro, former owners of the YSEB radio, collaborated in this creation. The first television channel launched was YSLA-TV, now known as Canal 6. By 6 April 1973, the first TV channel in color was launched on Canal 6 as a first air date .

El Salvador had initially adopted ATSC Standards for digital terrestrial television broadcasting, but later decided to adopt the ISDB-T International standard used in many other Latin American nations.[1] The first Digital TV Channel is Canal 10 on 21 December 2018, serving three channels in one.
