WCCA requests signal improvements

If WCCA TV13 looks fuzzier than other channels on your TV, you are not alone. This has consistently been the case, despite the high quality of the video that WCCA transmits. The problem seems to be on the cable company’s end.
Today WCCA requested that the City Manager finally take steps to fix this. From the letter we sent him:
Due to the poor signal quality transmitting from WCCA TV 13′s assigned Return Channel 18 or sometimes referred to sub carrier line 18, for the past ten years, we request that the channel be replaced with a fiber connection, similar to the one now being installed at city hall for the Government Channel, immediately.
Pursuant to the City Franchise Agreement with Charter Communications we request the current Return Channel 18, transmitting WCCA TV signal out to Charter, be abandoned and be replaced with a new dedicated fiber channel.
The city’s current and past contract obligates Charter to provide the PEG channels with a signal of equal quality to ALL other channels on the Charter system. This has not been the case for years.
