===1999-2001 (Lima and Arequipa)===
In 1999, the channel was renamed Canal A and the logo for that stage was a sloping blue oval with a kind of red wheel mark below it and above the blue oval, an "A" in Impact typeface in italics and above the logo, the word "canal" with the same typeface.

In 2001, only in Arequipa (the Lima subsidiary was withdrawn from the air due to discrepancies between RBC and CRASA) the previous logo was used, adding the remaining letters to the channel's name.

In 2003 Austral Televisión finally came to an end.
