Repretel 6

Canal 6 (previously known as Telecentro) is a private Costa Rican television channel, owned and operated by Repretel. It is the flagship TV station of the media group.

History
The channel was founded on September 12, 1965 as Telecentro Canal 6, led by Costa Rican and Panamanian investors, led by Mario Sotela Pacheco. Early in its history it also had shares from Spanish company Movierecord.

In 1995 under tough TV market conditions, the Corporación Costarricense de Televisión of the Sotela family, decided to lease the TV station to Repretel for 10 years. Its largest shareholder, Mario Sotela Blen, became a part of Repretel 6's directive as a "commercial associate". By 2007, the lease ended, and Repretel bought the station, ending the rumors of Telecentro Canal 6's comeback. It became the third owned and operated station of the group and flagship of the other two.
