Installation of microwave and "headend" facilities for the cable television system was completed Thursday at the Medford hotel, Faber said. This will link the already fin ished installations on four mountain tops north of Med ford with the distribution system in Medford. The distribution area will initially stretch from Colum bus ave. on West Main st. to the intersection of Valley View dr. and Hillcrest rd., Faber noted. i Faber said that stockhold ers of the Oregon Broadcast ing company were told by its officers at a recent meeting that the three signals origi nally intended for the system will be followed by two more as soon as the additional nec essary equipment can be in stalled. Stations involved in the five signals are located in Medford, Klamath Falls, Rose- burg, Eugene, Corvalhs, and Portland. The same signals will be available on antenna systems in Ashland and Grants Pass. Already signals are being fed to the receiving point for Medford in the Medford ho tel, Faber said. While the microwave equip ment was being installed, con tractors were hanging the messenger cable through the initial distribution area in Medford, Faber noted. This portion of the project, the last remaining before individual home service connections are made, is expected to be com pleted in the near future, ac cording to Faber. .
