Canal A[]
1991 (provisional)[]
Before the new programming of the semi-public channels, it was announced that Cadena Dos would take the name of Canal A from January 1, 1992; for that reason, some logos (including this logo) were used.
The logo represented a hand-drawn lion inside a thin triangle, and the text "Canal A" in a geometric typeface below. The logo and was unveilled during December of 1991.
On July 31, 1998, almost a month after the launch of the private channels, Canal A's programmers announced they would join to launch the new image of the "Lion Channel" (Canal A's nickname), created by the agency Duque & Asociados. The logo was unveilled in July 21, 1998, as an expectation campaign. However, during that time, most programmers were either bankrupt or became production companies, so Canal A's programmers were steadily leaving the channel.
By 2003, all programming was made by Audiovisuales; Canal A ceased broadcasting on January 31, 2004, and was replaced by Canal Institucional.
