CAMPBELL RIVER, B.C. – This morning, Shaw Communications restored the TV signals to Campbell River TV.
Due to a battle over digital cable set top boxes, outlined in several stories on www.cartt.ca throughout this week, Shaw (which owns both the microwave system feeding CRTV its distant U.S. broadcast signals and Cancom, which feeds the cable co-op its U.S. and Canadian specialty services) turned off most of the TV channels of CRTV customers on Wednesday.
The Supreme Court of British Columbia yesterday ordered Shaw Communications to restore the TV signals to Campbell River TV.
