Changes to WJFW and Antenna TV Access

Important Update for Our Customers: Changes to WJFW and Antenna TV Access

Dear Valued Customer,

We want to inform you about a current negotiation situation involving WJFW and Antenna TV channels. Our team is diligently working to secure a reasonable agreement with WJFW. However, they are insisting on a substantial rate hike. We are committed to keeping your costs manageable, and this increase would directly affect your monthly bill.

  • Update from January 9, 2024: Currently, we find ourselves at an impasse in our negotiations with WJFW. Despite our efforts, they have refused all terms that we believe are reasonable and fair to you, our valued customer. WJFW is insisting on significantly higher rates for their content that is broadcast over the public airwaves. This demand, if met, would have a direct and substantial impact on your monthly bill. Due to this ongoing situation, we are forced into the difficult situation of having to keep WJFW offline at this time.

Current Channel Disruption:

As of midnight on December 31st, WJFW compelled us to temporarily remove these channels from our service. We understand the inconvenience this may cause and are continuing negotiations in hopes of a swift resolution.

This channel suspension did not affect the Sunday Night Football game between the Packers and the Vikings.

Alternative Viewing Options:

In the event of a suspension, you can still access NBC content, including hit movies, TV shows, and live sports like Sunday Night Football, through Peacock streaming service. Peacock offers plans starting at $5.99 per month, which is more cost-effective than the rates proposed by WJFW.

For local news coverage, WJFW’s livestream can be accessed at WJFW Live Stream.

We appreciate your understanding and patience as we work through this process. Our priority remains to provide you with quality service and content at a reasonable cost.

Sincerely,

Amherst Communications

Fiber at the road in portions of the Town of Farmington

Our road crews are busy in the town of Farmington, running fiber in two areas. Some of the roads in this area are: Oakland Rd, Nelson Rd,  the northern part of Ware Rd, Riverwood Dr, parts of River Dr & Frontage Rd, Oak Dr, Popple Ct, Hillcrest Dr, and a few more. The homes that have Fiber ran past them will be able to sign up for service next year (2022). We sent out pre-construction postcards to homes on the route, but if we missed you, feel free to call for more information. We’d love to answer any questions.
