Local Cable Access Channel 5Serving
Tipp City and Monroe Township in Miami County, Ohio

The concept of  Public Access TV may not be well understood; let us briefly explain.

Public access television was created in the United States between 1969 and 1971 by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). It is a form of non-commercial mass media where ordinary people can create content television programming, which is cablecast through cable TV specialty channels.

Public Access Television is often grouped with public, educational, and government access television channels, byt the acronym PEG. PEG Channels are typically only available on cable television systems.

Cable companies were initially required to provide a channel that would be available for local communities for use of their own unique programming.  KIT-TV exists for the people of Tipp City and Monroe Township. The programs aired are to be primarily about the community and are to be produced by, or sponsored by, people within our community.

We would like to give everyone in the community an opportunity to see all the great things that our community organizations and schools are doing. This would linclue not only special programs (such as music programs and library events), but day-to-day activities within the Tipp-Monroe Township community.

At  KIT-TV, were are also very interested in finding volunteers — students and adults — to help us tape community and school events. As a volunteer, we offer free training and supply you with the latest equipment to do your recording. Our multi-media equipment is up to date and user friendly. We also have an in-house studio, complete with green screen, editing software and hardware, for your to use. If you have any ideas for future shows, we would love to hear them!

If you wish to speak with us personally about a program you want to tape for airing or you are interested in getting involved, please call at  937-667-8622 or Email at admin@kittv.org..
