A note from the director
Submitted by Autumn Labbe-Renault on Fri, 04/25/2014 - 11:27amIt’s been 25 years since community leaders worked to launch what was originally Davis Community Television as a public-access cable channel.

With ‘Meet the Candidates,” pro-con statements for local ballot measures, and several forums airing on DCTV Channel 15 on Comcast and available online, I’m working with other community organizations on the next set of forums, and beginning to think about what shape our election-night program will take.

On KDRT
Submitted by Autumn Labbe-Renault on Fri, 04/25/2014 - 11:20amWith a tip of the hat to the Smith family: On April 23, Rod Moseanko, host of The Grapevine on KDRT 95.7 FM, offered up a salute to the generosity and lasting spirit of the late, great Bill Smith. Bill was an early volunteer and strong contributing supporter of community access television and radio here in Davis. His involvement at DCTV, KDRT and KDVS gave him adventuresome local platforms to demonstrate his exceptional creativity.
