Cadena Super was a Colombian radio network, founded in the 1970s by Conservative politician Jaime Pava Navarro.[2] Its flagship Bogotá station, Radio Super, which broadcast at 1040 kHz (formerly Radio Metropolitana), replaced pioneer station La Voz de la Víctor at 970 kHz in 1987.[1] Before that, the flagship station was Villavicencio's La Voz del Llano.[2]

Besides the main radio network, it owns La Superestación, a pop-rock station founded in 1982 and which became online-only in 2005, with its frequencies leased to rival network RCN Radio.

Since December 2012, all the Super's frequencies in AM (Bogotá, Medellín, Cali, Ibagué, Villavicencio -Voz del Llano-, Cúcuta and Neiva) were leased to RCN too. The 3 main frequencies are called Radio Red (Bogotá, Medellín and Cali), Radio Fiesta (Cúcuta), La Cariñosa (Voz del Llano in Villavicencio), and La FM (Ibagué and Neiva).
