== History == Teleamazonas was created from the sale of frequencies that belonged to HCJB-TV, owned by the HCJB radio ministry, in April 1972, to Antonio Granda Centeno. The color equipment used arrived in February 1973, becoming the first network to broadcast in color when launched. Experimental color broadcasts started on November 5, 1973 under the new owner and began regular broadcasts on February 22, 1974, as the first network with color television transmissions in Ecuador, positioning itself as the fourth country in Latin America, behind Brazil, the Dominican Republic and Mexico, to introduce the technology. Its headquarters and main studios are located in Quito. Teleamazonas got the most powerful microwave radio relay, acquired the first mobile television unit, and built in Guayaquil the biggest self-supported antenna. From the start, it was the first ever color TV station in Spanish-speaking Latin America, a move that would inspire its neighboring countries to make the switch to color TV. Its signals were also received in border areas of Peru.
