Radio Station HCJB’s Quinta Corston location on the northeast edge of Quito provided ample space for broadcasting when the station began in 1931. The station’s location was not very convenient for most people who were asked to take part in radio programs.

So in 1933, HCJB opened a second radio studio near the Presidential Palace in downtown Quito. This studio provided easy access for government officials, special guests and local musicians.

The centralized studio location also gave HCJB’s news staff the ability to quickly report things as they happened.
