Canal 10 is a nationwide terrestrial television channel from Nicaragua owned by , S.A. (RATENSA), a company founded by Mexican investors.

RATENSA formerly owned Canal 4 and also owns a local network of four affiliated radio stations – , , and .

History[]

The station initially carried exclusively foreign programming; a local newscast was added in August 2001.[1]

On January 7, 2005, the channel fired its existing news team as its newscast (Telediario 10) was replaced by Acción 10, and its presenters didn't match the new newscast's profile.[2]

On October 6, 2005, subscribers of the Estesa cable system (now Claro) got access to a 24/7 feed of the channel, with better image quality and 24/7 programming, after an agreement was signed between Estesa and Ratensa.[3] A new agreement was signed in December with local cable operators, aiming to extend the signal to the entire country, including areas with no signal of the national channel of border areas where Costa Rican channels were dominant.[4]
