History

On 12 January 1957, the Communications General Regulation was issued by the government, which consisted of updated sections around television broadcasting, reserving VHF channels 5 and 7 to the Peruvian state. Dedicated headquarters for the new channel were inaugurated on the 22nd floor of the Education Ministry building (at the time, the tallest in Lima), with a small antenna on the building's rooftop and a medium 150 watt transmitter. In April of that same year, the Industrial Promotion Law was declared to be applicable to television, allowing it the tax exempt import of broadcasting equipment, as most shops in Lima were already selling TV sets of different brands. By mid-1957, viewers could receive the channel as a test broadcast. On 17 January 1958, Lima's channel 7 was founded as a joint venture by

and the Peruvian government identifying itself as OAD-TV. Its first broadcast was the airing of a technical documentary about television and installation of antennas. It broadcast three times per week and was operated by the Electronic School of the Public Education Ministry. Its first programmes were ''Quince minutos de canciones'', ''Informativo del canal'', ''Melodías de antaño'', ''Album criollo'', among others. Between 1959 and 1962, its broadcasts were interrupted due to a reorganisation in the network's management. In 1961, due to internal conflicts, the channel 7 management was divided in two groups: the ''Channel 7 Television Station'' (Estación de Televisión Canal 7) and the ''Electronic School Inca Garcilaso OAD TV Channel 7'' (Escuela de Electrónica Inca Garcilaso OAD TV Canal 7). As these issues were later resolved, the network resumes normal broadcasts in 14 June, with broadcasts from 5:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. By that time, it already had regular programming that aired for three hours from Monday to Saturday, solely focused on cultural themes. Color television began via test airings in 1974 and it was adopted as official using the United States NTSC standard beginning as in 1977. In the 1980s the station started
