Memorandum

To:	Chief Judge Gary B. Andrews
From:	William L. Martin, III
Subject:	Bell South Digital TV
Date:	September 22, 1998

Attached please find some information I received from Trey Polk, Facilities Manager for the Georgia Building Authority. Trey called me on Monday, September 21, and told me that he was having the building wired for Bell South Digital Television. The initial cost for installation of one outlet is $49.99 for him. An additional outlet for the Court would cost $14.99 per month.

Trey has said that if the Court is interested he will get an additional outlet for us. I assume it will be in the BancRoom . In the attached material is a listing of all of the channels that would be available should the Court wish to get the package. Basically, digital is the same as cable, but supposedly better reception.

A few years ago after the Rodney King riots in Atlanta, Fulton Superior Court put cable in for their judges. They did not want to be in a situation where they were shut off from a central television newscast.

If you have any interest, or think the Court would, please let me know.
