Rede Amazônica Ji-Paraná is a Brazilian television station based in Ji-Paraná, a city in the state of Amazonas. It operates on analog VHF channel 5 and digital UHF channel 15 (virtual 5.1), and is an affiliate of TV Globo. The station is owned by Grupo Rede Amazônica.
The station was opened as TV Ji-Paraná by journalist Phelippe Daou, on September 13, 1976, having received the transmission equipment five days earlier.[1] In its early days, the station had no local advertising, showing only music videos and public service announcements during program breaks. Initially, like the other television stations on Rede Amazônica, it was affiliated with Rede Bandeirantes.
In 1983, following the network's other stations (with the exception of TV Amazonas), TV Ji-Paraná left Rede Bandeirantes and became affiliated with Rede Globo.[2]
On January 3, 2015, following the pattern of the other Rede Amazônica stations, TV Ji-Paraná became known as Rede Amazônica Ji-Paraná.[3]
