TV Portuguesa was a South African television channel catering the Portuguese South African community. It was carried on a spare second frequency used by M-Net for its community-targeted CSN service; being later available on DStv, where, in its later years, was shown for four days a week. It was founded in 1989 by Viriato Barreto and shut down in the early 2000s, presumably due to the arrival of SIC Internacional's full-time service.
