Television in El Salvador

Television in El Salvador began in 1956 in black and white on YSEB-TV, which would bring attention to the radio broadcasting industry in the 1960s.

It was so much so that it was part of the Salvadoran Association Broadcasting (ASDER) in 1964 to confront stagnation, in response to the political crisis during the era of military authoritarianism.

In the same month, Boris Eserski, Guillermo Pinto and Tono Alfaro, former owners of the YSEB radio station, collaborated in this creation.

The first to arrive with ANTEL approval were Telesat and Futurama in 1986, and in the 1990s it grew with the extension of the UHF band concessions with Cablevisa, Multicable and Amnet, including foreign companies such as Tecavisa.
