RTR Canal 9 de la Rioja is an Argentine television station operated by the local Government. It serves the Provinces of La Rioja and Catamarca (through a repeater on channel 13), and a small part of San Luis. The station broadcasts from La Rioja, the capital the homonym Province and it is affiliated with Telefe.
Channel 9 broadcasts in color, but -as well as many other TV channels outside Buenos Aires- it has monophonic sound only. The station produces two newscasts: one with local news and other with news from Catamarca. A weekend cultural show called La Rioja que Usted no Conoce ("La Rioja You Don't Know") is also presented.
Most of the schedule is filled with the network offerings: soap operas, national news, movies, sitcoms and cartoons.
