Presque Isle’s public access moves to new channel

6 years ago

PRESQUE ISLE, Maine On September 5, Spectrum is upgrading its entire channel lineup to a digital-only signal. This change will allow Spectrum to deliver more channels, better picture and sound quality as well as increased Internet speeds to customers. As part of this nationwide project, Spectrum will be relocating the Public, Educational and Governmental (PEG) access channels to the 1300s section of the channel line-up.

As of this date, the City of Presque Isle’s Public Access Channel will be broadcast on channel 1302.  This will be carried in the basic service tier. Customers will be required to have a Spectrum Receiver on each TV.  If you have an existing set-top-box, digital transport adapter (DTA), or retail device with a CableCARD on each TV, you will be unaffected by this change.  Otherwise, to order your Spectrum Receiver(s), please go to Spectrum.com/digitalnow or call 1-844-278-3409 and Charter will ship a self-installation kit directly to your home at no additional cost.

You can also visit the Spectrum’s Presque Isle location to pick up your equipment.  If you need equipment, customers are eligible to receive a converter at no additional charge for a limited period of time.  Please note, if customers have TV(s) without equipment issued by Spectrum, you will lose the ability to view channels.
