C4 Lexington Herald Lexington Ky Monday July 13 1881 KET Needs Another Channel Director Says David Reed Vz Price Special Aerobic Dance Classes 6 Weeks $1250 Now a part of BJ's regular program (No extra charge) broadcasting is being encouraged by Congress and by the FCC to expand into the new technologies including cable "If we get in now and reserve channels while they are available educational and public television will be left in the telecommunications backwaters We are straggling to retain relevancy I think important for our nation that we do The loss of the program services unique to public television and to educational television and to instructional television would be unfortunate at best and tragic at worst "Gov Hugh Carey at New York made the point better than I do in his letter in Broadcasting magazine which I am sure you saw and in which he reported on the Increase in state appropriations to public television that he has Just signed into law" In a recent column I commented about how I thought It wm not wise for Kentucky Educational Television to apply for a second channel here In Lexington I mentioned the laick of funds to operate such a service as among my reasons for discouraging KET from seeking to reactivate Channel 82 for Its use here In addition to that others are Interested In operating Channel 62 as an Independent commercial station Not everyone agrees with me especially 0 Leonard Press KET executive director He recently wrote a long letter explaining why KET feels it needs another channel here In Lexington Press asked that I share his letter with my readers Here it is: "The reasons we applied for Channel 62 are these: "1 We need an originating station hi order to feed translators in the areas where we have received commitments for second channel cable programming So for those areas include Bowling Green Louisville and Jefferson County and Northern Kentucky the program service we would offer on this second channel is the same as we offer on KET Etc on "All of this is contingent on federal grants Obviously between the time we first initiated this plan for statewide cable channel service and now the economic picture has become quite bleak "Quite honestly your argument that Lexington should have another commercial service hr addition to the three off-theair local stations the 20 or so cable channels the over-the-air pay channels before it had another educational service never occurred to us Now that you have raised that I think anyone would be hard put to imagine what another commercial program service could add to what is already available in this area "As you well know broadcast frequencies are always in short supply In the early days education almost lost out by not being In a position to apply for frequencies when they were available In recognition of our problem then the Federal Communications Commission reserved for a limited time a portion of the spectrum (primarily in the disadvantaged UHF band) for our use "Now thousands of new low-power TV channels are being opt up first come first served Public Complete diet Exercise Programs Motivation RESULTS Short term programs available after 6 wks with NO CONTRACTS 272-7657 TeieCable in Lexington That is adult education during school hours college courses repeats of KET productions and some others for which cable rights are cleared When the Kentucky General Assembly is in session we plan to carry that all day long much in the way that C-SPAN (a cable service) carries the US House of Representatives "2 In searching for a vacant channel (initially we were thinking of applying for a low-power television frequency) we discovered that Channel 62 was still assigned to Lexington and that no one had applied for it That would be for better than a low power TV station elsewhere in the state or even in Lexington because with foil power operation on Channel 62 we could probably eliminate the cost of microwave between here and Louisville and here and Northern Kentucky for translator pick-up in those areas I 1 i il i- i it it Adjusta-Drape Drapery Cleaning Process Give your home a Touch of Elegance If You Love Your Wife Let Her Know Have your draporias bedspreads sll throw nigs and blankets cleaned at Alin Landers Dear Empty Anns: your letter but those elephant-hkles you run with recognize themselves Tell your insensitive friends exactly how you feel die only way they'll get the message FMd Nnmpapar 8yndfctoo 327 Romany Rd Gaines way Village 777 Naii Broodway Gardenskto Plaza PICKUP A DELIVERY Take Down Rehang Sendee Available Gear Reflections Deep Gunsing European Facials Painless Hair Removal Call For Free Consultation 120 Pin Oak 276-4221 I can barely handle the baby-powder commercials on TV How I wish my friends (and family) would be a little more considerate of my feelings Maybe a letter in your column might help Will you print it?
