Background

Río Uruguay Televisión is a local TV channel with headquarters in Fray Bentos, Uruguay. It started broadcasts in May 26, 1966, becoming one of the first local TV channels in Uruguay. Outside of Fray Bentos, coverage of the channel has reached out to other interior cities of Uruguay - including Mercedes, Dolores, and Young - and also internationally within the Argentinian province of Entre Rios.

1st ID (Closedown, 1970s-1980s)


The full audio of the closedown ID.

Visuals: On a white background, there is a drawing of a fish in front of multiple rectangles, with bubbles coming out from its mouth. Inside the fish there's the text "CANAL XII" in black, below a squiggly wave-like line in white, and the texts "rio uruguay" and "TV" in black.

Technique: Unknown. There could be any animation than what is currently described above about the logo, or none at all.

Audio: A traditional pop theme with strings, with a group of female singers singing the lyrics in Spanish: "Ha llegado el momento del descanso / Rio Uruguay TV les desea buenas noches / Y los espera luego como siempre / Para ofrecerle lo mejor". In the middle, an announcer begins speaking: "Señoras y señores, CXB26 Rio Uruguay TV Canal 12, de la ciudad de Fray Bentos, República Oriental del Uruguay... primera televisora del interior, finaliza aquí un día más de trabajo dedicado al litoral uruguayo/argentino. Le deseamos un descanso reparador y nos despedimos hasta luego, si dios así lo quiere.". Near the end, the singers begin singing again, with the lyrics being: "Desde el Río de los pájaros pintados... Rio Uruguay... tu canal...". At the end, a slow ascending bell glissando is heard.

Legacy: The music of this ID has become a famous source of nostalgia for many residents living in the Western Uruguay or Entre Rios regions during the time.
