Telegolfo RTG

Telegolfo RTG is an Italian community television broadcaster rooted in the province of Latina, in the southern Lazio region. It traces its origins to the 1980s, when it began as a radio station called RTG-RadioTeleGolfo broadcasting on 92.5 MHz FM, with Giovanni D'Onofrio serving as programme director. Over time the operation changed its name first to RadioTeleGolfo-RTG and eventually to Telegolfo-RTG, reflecting its evolution from radio into television. The channel is described as a community broadcaster (emittente televisiva comunitaria) and is visible across a wide portion of central-southern Italy: southern Lazio, Campania and part of Molise. It broadcasts on digital terrestrial channel 810. After a period in which it ceased transmissions, the station was revived in 2005 under the direction of Giuseppe Capuano. In its current form, Telegolfo RTG operates as a local news and information outlet. Its website, telegolfo.com, presents itself as "La TV del Golfo di Gaeta" — the TV of the Gulf of Gaeta — and carries rolling coverage of news, sport, culture and current affairs from the surrounding area. Typical items include reporting from Fondi, Caserta, Aprilia, Frosinone, Latina and Rome, covering local crime, police operations, cultural events, awards and community ceremonies. The site also features video segments ("Guarda ora") alongside written articles, underlining its role as a multimedia local news provider. As a community broadcaster, Telegolfo RTG occupies a niche in the Italian local media landscape, focusing on hyperlocal coverage of the Gulf of Gaeta area and neighbouring provinces rather than national programming. Its long history — spanning radio in the 1980s, a television identity, a period of inactivity and a 2005 relaunch — makes it a durable presence in the local broadcasting scene of southern Lazio.

Telegolfo RTG's history begins in the 1980s as a radio station. It was founded under the name RTG-RadioTeleGolfo, broadcasting on 92.5 MHz FM, with Giovanni D'Onofrio as programme director. This radio phase established the RTG identity that would later carry into television. Over the following years the station changed its name first to RadioTeleGolfo-RTG and then to Telegolfo-RTG, marking its transition from radio into television broadcasting. As a community broadcaster (emittente televisiva comunitaria), it served the province of Latina and surrounding areas, becoming visible in Campania, southern Lazio and part of Molise on digital terrestrial channel 810. At some point the channel ceased transmissions. It was subsequently revived in 2005 under the direction of Giuseppe Capuano, who led its relaunch. Since then Telegolfo RTG has continued as a local television and online news operation, with its website telegolfo.com presenting itself as "La TV del Golfo di Gaeta" and providing rolling coverage of news, sport and culture from the Gulf of Gaeta area and neighbouring provinces such as Latina, Frosinone, Caserta and Rome. The station's programming and online output focus on hyperlocal reporting — police operations, community events, cultural awards, local ceremonies and sport — reflecting its role as a community broadcaster rather than a national network.
