Its coverage area includes the West, Center-West, Northwest e Nova Alta Paulista in São Paulo, covering a large part of the state's inland, and other key cities such as Assis, Araçatuba, Bauru, Marília, Ourinhos, and others. Its studios are located in Presidente Prudente, at Jardim Santana, and its transmitting antenna is located atop Edifício Ouro Branco, in the city's central area. In São José do Rio Preto, it has studios since February 2020 at Plaza Avenida Shopping, in Jardim Redentor,^[1] and its transmitters are located at Parque São Miguel.

History

In 1972, Presidente Prudente did not have a strong television signal available locally. The existing antenna was only used to relay TV Record's relay, which was located in Araçatuba. Antonio de Figueiredo Feitosa, in 1975, took on the idea of establishing a television license for the city. For this end, he established Rádio e Televisão Andorinha S/A on September 9, 1976, to occupy VHF channel 10, which up until then was occupied by a relay station of TV Globo São Paulo. Other companies disputed the bid, such as TV Record, TV Bandeirantes and TV Comercial.^[2]

Due to political misunderstandings, the license ended un in hands of Grupo Bandeirantes, receiving a 15-year license on June 3, 1981. On December 13, 1982, its broadcasts started, covering 299 municipalities in an area defined by the network as RB-2, which was half of the state of São Paulo. A production unit for commercials was installed in 1983, using equipment from TV Vanguarda Cornélio Procópio.^[2]
