Pay TV Watch Rates Cited in Arkansas Hearing
Walter Elliott of Toronto testified before the Arkansas Public Service Commission on behalf of theater owners opposing a pay television experiment in Little Rock.

Midwest Video Corp seeks PSC approval for transmission lines, with estimated $258,000 installation and a $7,320 monthly charge, plus a 10 year bond to guarantee payment.
