The Bohlman and Ott Team Share Channel 15


June 13, 2018 - Our very own Public Education Government (PEG) Channel 15 on the Cedar Falls Cablevision offers 4 channels to subscribers;  from the CF City Government Council Meetings, County Board of Supervisors sessions, general interest programming,  to our beloved UNI Panthers Athletic Sports programming.  

Denny Bohlman and Jeremy Ott gave an insider’s view to the Cedar Falls Kiwanis Rough Risers on how all these channels are created, produced, edited and then sent to the airwaves to a satellite orbiting space and then bounced back to eagerly awaited broadcast stations all over the world.  Denny and Jeremy said that up until a few weeks ago; most of this was accomplished from a very small truck that was parked on the premises with a couple of highly skilled people doing the tasks.  

With the Cablevision Channel being so popular, they purchased a drone flyer recently, to capture outside events as they are unfolding.  The Public Access Channel just got a huge windfall lately, when the local On-Air NBC Channel 7 remodeled their live TV broadcast studio and donated the entire set to Channel 15 to provide CF subscribers unequaled broadcasting in the future.

Cedar Falls Cablevision has always been a strong supporter of our Kiwanis Rough Risers club.  You can even see our Serving the Valley interview on channel 15.
