SOS - Students On Screen

Since September 2009, R.TV has been working with four Karlsruhe schools on this media educational pilot project. With the Friedrich-Realschule, the Südendschule, the Fichte-Gymnasium and the Markgrafen-Gymnasium , four programs of the student magazine SOS - Schüler On Screen , which were broadcast on R.TV on the four Sundays of Advent in 2009, were produced. The students themselves determined the content of the program, realized the production and were supervised by R.TV in terms of media education. This project should be continued in 2010 with other schools from the Middle Upper Rhine region. The project managers were Frank Billet (media educator) and Tobias Rieger (production manager at Fernsehen aus Karlsruhe GmbH).

History and Development

After the first attempt by B.TV Baden (later B.TV4U) to establish local television in Karlsruhe - which ended after six years with bankruptcy - R.TV left the premises in the Chamber of Commerce and Industry on September 1, 2003 , on Erbprinzenstrasse, on the air. Since February 2, 2004, R.TV has been fed into the digital cable network in addition to the analog cable network. This made R.TV receivable for 60,000 additional households. In October 2005 the State Office for Communication Baden-Württemberg (LfK) approved the takeover by KueblerTelevision AG. On October 15, 2007, Regional TV Karlsruhe AG received the licenses for R.TV Pforzheim and R.TV Baden-Baden in the digital cable network. Both channels went on air just under two and a half years later. In April 2008, R.TV moved from its downtown location to KA-Neureut Sandfeld into the building in which TV Baden and the radio station Die Welle used to be based. Since April 7, 2008, the station broadcast from the new rooms.

In 2008 the station logo was also slightly changed, followed by a complete change in the corporate identity in October 2009. There were also some program changes in 2009. New formats appeared, such as people from our region , then the Kurstadt Journal , the car magazine fun & drive , the Durlach Journal , the Biowetter and, since the beginning of December 2009, The Karlsruhe Monthly Mirror . In February 2010, the regional channels for Pforzheim and Baden-Baden, approved in 2007, went on air in the digital cable network under the names Regional TV Pforzheim and Regional TV Baden-Baden . Like R.TV, both channels were operated by Fernsehen aus Karlsruhe GmbH . In June 2010, the two new formats Pforzheim Journal and the talk show Talk im Café went on air.

In October 2010, the LfK did not renew the broadcasting license, so that television broadcasting has only been in the digital cable network since April 30, 2011. The two offshoots Regional TV Pforzheim and Regional TV Baden-Baden , as well as the satellite broadcast, were discontinued in a program window on Rhein-Neckar television . On July 31, 2011, R.TV returned its broadcasting license and ceased broadcasting.
