NHPTV Channel 26 Transmitter Repaired and Fully Operational

(DURHAM – March 19, 2010) – New Hampshire Public Television’s Colebrook transmitter (Channel 26) has been repaired and is fully operational once again. Over the past few weeks, the signal has been intermittently interrupted during the daytime hours due to water freezing and thawing in the microwave dish on top of Mt. Washington. We appreciate our North Country viewers’ patience as we worked to resolve this problem. NHPTV is one of several state partners submitting a multi-million dollar broadband stimulus grant application. If the state receives this grant, it will make the North Country’s and state’s public safety communications, broadband infrastructure and NHPTV transmissions significantly more extensive, robust and reliable.To contact NHPTV: themailbox@nhptv.org or call NHPTV Viewer Services at (603) 868-1100.
