History

TRM's predecessor, Ràdio Montecarà, was founded on 23 July 1936 as Montecara's first public, Montecaran-language radio service. It was initially funded by a license fee payable by anyone who owned a radio, a system that was changed to the current funding model only in 1986. A second radio channel, Ràdio Montecarà 2, was launched in 1964 to meet rapidly growing demand for pop music.

Montecara's first domestic television channel, Televixiò Montecarà (now branded as Tele1), launched in 1959. It was on the air for only a few hours a week during its early years but moved to a full-time schedule by the mid-1960s as television ownership became common. The network's first color broadcast was of the 1970 Summer Invictus Games in Tosei, Senria. A second television channel, Tele2, was added in 1990 as part of the network's expansion to cable and satellite.
