After decades of broadcasting on Comcast Channels 8 & 10, Brattleboro Community TV has moved to a new location higher up on the cable lineup. The new numbers are: 1075, BCTV’s public access channel, and 1085, BCTV’s government and education channel. Both sets of channels have been simulcasting since mid-February, but 8 and 10 will be reassigned on May 18 and will no longer carry BCTV.
Southern Vermont Cable customers will continue to find BCTV on channels 8 and 10.
The benefit of the move is that Comcast will include BCTV’s channels on the Interactive Program Guide for the first time, so viewers can use the guide to find information about BCTV’s programs and DVR them using the remote.
The reassignment of channels and the addition of local channels to the Interactive Program Guide adheres to the terms of Comcast’s Certificate of Public Good.
For questions about the new channel numbers, contact BCTV at 802-257-0888 or info@brattleborotv.org.
