Ham Roast *1eaty Bacon Burns Sliced 500g Wieners mm g pkg. BKF ROASTS Boneless Chuck Skinless Campfire 500g T.V. REPORT At present we have 2 channels operating and the quality of picture varies with your location and individual T.V. sets. It seems that rabbit ear antennAs give the best picture on most sets. Once we have the system operating as it should we will then determine what antennas are needed. Some T.V. sets require only, a little adjustment on the fine tuning and c others a great deal. We are definitely not satisfied with the picture going out as yet and have the supplier working on it constantly. This system is a relatively new thing and there is very little information available? Therefore we have had to go through a process of elimination to determine the problem. It appears to be in our antennas and we hope to determine what is wrong shortly. , Please be patient and support the' committee in this endeavor as this system will work and it will give us a better service for a lot less money than other alternate systems. At present we have set the channels on Cinemax, a movie channel, and ESPN, a sports channel. These particular channels were chosen because they have a stronger signal off'the satellite. Once the system is working as it should, we will call a meeting of the members and to elect an operating committee and decide what selection of channels to transmit. We hone to have complete information on the programming of each individual channel. Also, there is a satellite T.V. guide available and we will have wore information on this letter. Please bear with us, this system will work and give us the alternate T.V. we have wanted for many years. We are still holding 50% of the purchase price until we are satisfied the system is working properly so the suppliers are as anxious to get it working as we are. M.C.T.A.
