Park Place Views, a monthly television series, turned its attention in February to the PEG community media center where it produces the show, Janesville JATV. Host Molly Nolte interviewed Station Manager Alan Luckett about managing the center and programming the cable access channel on Charter Spectrum channel 994. Alan talked about how JATV gets involved in the community and covers local events, businesses, non-profit organizations, and the local government. The program can be seen on the City’s website at www.ci.janesville.wi.us or on Youtube .

In 2018 alone, De Pere TV recorded over 90 meetings, which accounted for more than 4,500 hours of broadcasting time on our cable access TV channel. The station rotates the broadcast schedule so all viewers, no matter what shift they work, can watch the meetings.
