30 days is $70 and

Additional screens must run the same schedule as the first screen, but do not have to be run consecutively. Enhancements
All billboard ads include weekly copy changes at no additional cost so your can keep your ads fresh. (The price of your monthly ad includes up to 40 minutes of creation time during the month. Additional time for complex ads is billed at $30 per hour in 5-minute increments. Most ads can be created and changed weekly within the allotted 40 minutes.) Lead Time Prism Communications requests 2 working days to create and display ads and changes to ads, though usually the process takes far less time. We will make every reasonable effort to respect time-sensitive materials. Proofing It is the advertiser's responsibility to proof ads that are running within two working days of the time of request for an ad or an ad change. For those advertisers who are outside the Cable One service area, we will provide proofs in a way best suited to the advertiser's needs prior to running. If errors are found in these proofs, the advertiser must contact us immediately to make a correction. Prism Communication's sole liability for errors in advertisements is to make the correction and to increase the length of the schedule to compensate for incorrect information if we are notified promptly as specified above. Sponsorships Sponsorships of community organizations activities are available. Please contact Prism Communications for details and for sponsorship availability. In a sponsorship, the sponsor receives the bottom quarter of the screen for a message that reads: "Sponsored by (sponsor's name.)" Non-profits A non-profit organization with an IRS 501(c)3 certification will receive a 33 percent discount on ads of 1 month or more, paid in advance.

Bisbee Cable Trivia Because Bisbee has depended on cable TV so much for so long, almost 90 percent of the households in the greater Bisbee area, a total of about 2,700, still rely on the service. Bisbee's cable has offered a hometown channel for decades. In the 1960s, it was simply a video camera panning weather instruments, giving viewers an up-to-the-minute look at the weather 24 hours a day. For almost three decades, Bisbee's hometown channel has broadcast live the community's most successful long-term fundraising activity, the cake auction benefitting the Cochise County Association for the Handicapped. Each year, thousands of viewers watch and call in their bids to help the organization service its clients. Another service of Bisbee's hometown channel is a taped broadcast of the twice-monthly Bisbee City Council meeting. So popular is the broadcast that the 1998 City Charter Review Committee wrote into the Charter -- which the citizens approved -- a requirement that Council meetings be taped and aired.
