History

Originally, the channel was launched in the 1990s as a booster channel of channel 13 of Lima, Global Televisión, together with local news bulletins. After the end of the contract with Global Televisión at the end of 2003, it converted into an independent channel and relaunched with the name "Ucayalina de Televisión" on April 19, 2004. Its personnel consisted of Marcel de Smedt, general producer; Juan Ramírez, director of press; and Gunter Paredes, cameraman.
Since 2012, it has transmitted the most long-lived program of the station, Nando Show y su mundo de clase A.
The channel generated disputes with Jorge Velásquez Portocarrero, regional president of Ucayali, for being spread in a sequence of channel 19 without his permission.
