The Facts About
MARS HILL AND MARSHALL
?What Is The Clearview Cable Co.?
Clearview Cable Co. Inc. is a corporation with its headquarters
in Burnsville, N.C. We have been providing Cable T.V. service to
Burnsvllle and the surrounding areas for approximately 10
years.
?What Is Cable T.V.?
Cable T.V. is a way of bringing in stations that are too far away
or too weak for you to receive on your own antenna. Our anten
nas are located on a nearby mountain where good quality
signals are available. After the received signals are processed
electronically they are piped directly into your home and into
your T.V. set-similar to the way you are served by the telephone
company.
?How Does The T.V. Signal Reach
Your Home?
After the signals are processed at our receiving site they are
distributed throughout the city by coaxial cable. In some areas
we are leasing space on the power company poles for our cable.
In other areas we are either placing our cables underground or
installing our own poles.

'Channels 5 & 11 are to be replaced with channel 17 from Atlanta and Christian Broad
casting Network as soon as our satellite receiver is in operation. Due to FCC rules which
require us to carry the local translator signal, channel No. 2 in Mars Hill will be used to
carry WSPA from Spartanburg, S.C.
?Will Other Channels Be Available
In The Future?
Yes, we are presently making arrangements for the installation
of a "Satellite Earth Station" which will allow us to offer a wide
range of additional signals such as Channel 17 from Atlanta,
Ga., "Christian Broadcasting Network" and "Home Box Of
fice" premium programs. We expect to have our "Satellite Ear
th Station" in operation within approximately 120 days.
? How Soon Will Service Be Available?
This depends on where you live. Our service will be available to
residents within the city limits of mars Hill-Marshall and in many
instances outside the city limits. However we plan to provide
service to customers living within the city before making service
available to the adjoining areas. We are presently wiring the city
in sections and as soon as the installation of our facilities is
completed in a section, we will begin making customer connec
tions in that area. If you live within the city limits or within a
reasonable distance of the city, we will take your order now and
provide service as soon as it is available to the area in which you
live. We expect to have our cable installed and service available
to over 90% of the city's residents within 60 days.

?What Is The Quality Of The Pictures?

clear". It must be remembered that we are bringing in signals
from great .distances which do vary at times. However we can
safely state that the picture quality is far superior to pictures
normally provided by home antenna installations.

Our cable system will not cause interference to anyone who is
not connected to our service. Furthermore, the system itself is
almost interference free-that is, the common causes of T.V* in
terference such as electric razors, hair dryers, mixers, spark
plugs, diathermy machines, etc. will not affect the system.
