13 Max Televisión, known as 13 Max TV, broadcasts out of Corrientes in the northeast of Argentina. The station traces back to 1965, launched under the name LT 80 TV by Jorge Félix Gómez and Carlos Antonio Smith, then rebranded as 13 Max Televisión in 2008 - a shift that brought both a tech upgrade and a broader content lineup. Río Paraná TV S.R.L owns the channel today, and it runs as a Telefe affiliate, tapping into one of Argentina's biggest television networks. More background on the ownership and history sits on Wikipedia.
Programming leans on local news, entertainment shows, telenovelas sourced from Telefe, plus cultural and community segments tied to daily life in Corrientes. What stands out, the channel keeps a strong hyper-local identity, it doesn't get swallowed up by national content despite the Telefe partnership. The core audience skews toward households across Corrientes and the NEA region, mostly viewers used to traditional TV who tune in for regional news over generic entertainment.
As for access, 13 Max TV runs free-to-air across Corrientes, with repeater stations pushing the signal into Chaco, Formosa and parts of Paraguay, alongside a presence on local cable systems. The station also keeps an official website running for info and content, though a dedicated large-scale OTT platform hasn't shown up yet. For a station pushing nearly 60 years on air and standing as a pillar of local TV in Corrientes, picking it up through word of mouth or falling back into a daily news habit tracks - this is the kind of channel people click into because they already know it, not one they research beforehand. Actual stream quality on the digital side comes down to each viewer's own take, worth a look.
Anyone following news and daily life across northeast Argentina, worth bookmarking the channel page for next time, and passing along to others hunting for this kind of local coverage.
