HSTV-15 is getting a new look and location


HSTV-15, Hot Springs’ government access channel on Resort Television Cable, will move to Channel 12 as of June 1, with a new look and a new logo.

Currently, Channels 15 and 12 are carrying the same programming, to help accustom viewers to the upcoming channel change.  On June 1, HSTV-15 will go dark, and city12 will become the city’s new government access TV channel.

The channel change is in response to Resort TV Cable’s request for additional access to the bandwidth spectrum on Channel 15 to meet the growing needs of its high-speed Internet customer base.  “It’s a win-win for the city and for Resort TV Cable,” said Public Information Director Terry Payne.  “Channel 12 is a great channel, market-wise, for the city and its viewers.”

City12 carries Hot Springs Board of Directors live broadcasts and replays; local news briefs; information on city officials, staff, facilities, events, programs and activities; and a 24/7 bulletin board.  To e-subscribe to the city12 weekly broadcast schedule, visit cityhs.net under the Services tab. For information, call 321-6806.
