The service started in the early 1950's following our successful tender
to provide TV pictures to the Down-land hamlet of East Dean. At that time,
TV reception was impossible and BBC funds for a local transmitter were not
available, therefore it had to be a commercially viable service with a
subscription charge levied by the chosen operator. Our reception service has
always been excellent value and is constantly upgraded to accommodate new
free-to-air digital channels.
We currently transmit 21 channels of TV and a first class FM radio
service. The advantages of our cable system are:
- No aerials - there is a Covenant in East Dean village banning external
antennas
- Multi-viewing i.e. 5 TVs in the house 5 different channel choices
- Real involvement in choice of programming - 95% of subscribers return
viewing habit questionnaires
- Wide choice of programmes at a fraction of the cost of 'Sky' or
traditional cable companies
- Superb FM radio reception direct from duplexed cable terminal
- Digital channels from the BBC are already on the service therefore no
need for iDTV or set top box
How much does it cost?
The cost of this package is £60 per annum with discounts available for
prompt payment. Further discounts are available to people who buy or rent TV
equipment from us.
