For Local Television
with a flavor all its own, tune into
Rocky Hill Public Access !
RHCTV was created for the purpose of providing Public access television to the Town of Rocky Hill. But more so, to provide a means for exchange of information and a
soapbox to express ones ideas and views . The narrow casting flavor of Public Access TV has extended far past
town lines and the boarders that separate us state to state. It is our hope
that as the world seems to grow smaller at a rapid pace , the usage of Public
Access Television will grow and unite in similar proportions.
Mr. Hagglund for the past 12 years has provided an electronic engineering expertise that has resulted in the reformation of a local access group, the design and building of four television studios and the creation and implementation of computer software used in Public Access Broadcasting. Al serves as the President of Rocky Hill Community TV and is active in many of its productions.
Mr.Brescia has been active in Public Access Television for 9 years. His ability in the production of live broadcasts has been seen when in front of the camera and felt, when behind the camera. Andrew has over 100 live broadcasts to his credit as well as numerous projects spawned from his creative nature that have found their roots in the local community. Mr. Brescia holds the position of Station Manager for RHCTV.
Joann Hagglund
has served as a cornerstone in making strong bonds between local
access television and the community it serves. Mrs. Hagglund for the past 11 years has contributed endless hours by being involved with local Governmental
broadcasts and local Board of Education broadcasting. Her ability as a graphic
artist brought excitement and new design to the Community Calendar that disseminates
information to the Town of Rocky Hill, over the airways of RHCTV.

Public Access Television was mandated by the Federal Communications Cable Act. In simple terms it was the give back that allows a cable TV company to operate in any given franchise area. Your local cable company must provide its customers with public access to its broadcast area. Although this is handled differently from area to area , one thing remains constant. Television broadcast by local individuals is made possible without cost to those persons and most importantly, without censorship or governmental controls. Self expression , an ability to editorialize, creative process and the free exchange of information have all found their true home here. BACK TO TOP
