History

edit

Its programming consists of direct live broadcasts from channel 13 of Santiago, with additional news bulletins and programmes especially produced for the international feed.

From 1995 until 2001, Canal 13 had an international channel, called UCTV Chile, which was rebranded as 13i on 30 June 2014, available as both a pay television channel and a subscription-based online livestream.

Despite efforts to carry the 13i signal, it was not possible to achieve the results expected by Canal 13, in addition to the lack of interest from foreign cable operators to incorporate the signal into their schedule, which led to the closure of the international signal and the website.[1]
