RTA2 (Azorita)

RTA2 is the second television channel of Rádio e Televisão Azoritensa, the Azoritean public broadcasting corporation. Commonly referred as the "Second Channel", or simply "Dois" (Portuguese for two), this historically state-run television channel started its regular broadcasting on December 8, 1969. Nowadays, RTA2 is a public service, advertising-free channel that serves as an alternative to the mainstream channel of RTA, RTA1. Similar to GRT Two, RTA2 aims at less mainstream and more intellectual content.
