Puls 4 (Puls vier) is a terrestrial television channel in Austria. As its name implies, it is the fourth Austrian-wide full-service television channel, behind ORF 1, ORF 2, and ATV.
History
Puls 4 began as a local Vienna television station called "Puls TV". In 2007, ProSiebenSat.1 Media took over the station outright. On 28 January 2008, with the addition of a nightly newscast, the station relaunched as "Puls 4", Austria's fourth general terrestrial network.1
