Both channels were sold to Artear, but due to possible duopoly restrictions (and Artear's decision to retain channel 13), the channel was sold to Televisión Federal (a consortrium led by Televisoras Provinciales, which consists of regional television stations such as Teleocho Córdoba, Canal 5 Rosario, Canal 7 Neuquén, Canal 7 Jujuy, Canal 8 Mar del Plata, TTC Canal 8 Tucumán, Telenueva Bahía Blanca, Canal 9 Mendoza, Canal 11 Salta and Canal 13 Santa Fe alongside Editorial Atlántida among other investors) and became Telefe, and began to be used with the logo in 1986 before launching as a television network on January 15, 1990, covering channel 11 in the capital as well as 10 television stations inside the country and via satellite in the rest of the country's provinces.
