Cape Town TV is a non-profit, free-to-air, community television service operating in the greater Cape Town metropolitan area. CTV was founded by over 100 non-profit organisations in 2006 and launched in September 2008. CTV is committed to providing community access to the powerful medium of television as a tool to promote community development, human rights and social justice. The station broadcasts from a central studio based in Observatory, linked by a microwave link to a transmitter located on the Tygerburg Hill. The broadcasting footprint encompasses all those areas that that are in “line-of- sight” of the transmitter for a 100 km radius, including all the areas that lie between Atlantis, Stellenbosch, the City Bowl and Muizenburg with an estimated population for 2.5 million people
