SuperSiete is a Puerto Ricantelevision station that was first formed in the late 1950s when it was first called WRIK-TV in Ponce. The station retransmitted Telemundo WKAQ-TV's programming. In 1970 it was bought by the United Artists and moved to San Juan, renamed Rikavision, now producing its own programming without much success. In 1979, it was acquired by Puerto Rican producer Tommy Muņiz and became WLUZ-TV Teleluz. Muņiz was also owner of Radio Luz WLUZ-AM.
Financial troubles forced Muņiz to sell the station to Malrite Communications Group in 1958 where it became WSTE-TV and in 1991 was sold to Jerry Hartman, a Florida entrepreneur. Super Siete is now called El Nuevo Super Siete and/or Teleisla, owned by the Hartman family.
WSTE is owned by Siete Grande Television, Inc. and is operated by WLII under a local marketing agreement.
In 1991, Malrite Communications Group fearing that it will lose channel 7 experimental license for their booster-type translator facilities to transmit their signal across the island, decided to buy WLII-TV and WSUR-TV and sold WSTE to Jerry Hartman, a Florida entrepreneur.
It uses its "SuperSiete" brand usually from midnight until the early hours of the morning
