KAYSVILLE -- You've heard about Davis Cable Channel 17, wanted to get it, but can't seem to find it on your television remote.

In just the past week alone, more than 14,000 people in Davis County clicked onto the channel's Web site to check out what was on Cable 17. And, according to Chris Dallin, Channel 17 executive, as many as 70,000 viewers have turned onto it on a given day.

With demand this high, channel management wants to ensure that everyone who wants to receive, can.

At present Davis Cable 17 is available on Comcast Cable. If you do not subscribe to cable, you cannot current receive the signal.

Technical committee members Brad Weller and Grant Lindsay are, however, working on video streaming to the Web site. It won't be long until you will be able to watch the "Davis County Business News," "Davis County Now" or high school football from your desktop at lunch hour.

If you currently subscribe to Comcast Cable and still do not receive the signal, worry not. In the past, a physical filter was placed on the Channel 17 in Davis County because Showtime was playing on the channel. That filter can be removed free of charge.
