UCB’s first TV venture in the USA is about to launch in Medford, Oregon. The Dove CEO Perry Atkinson has completed negotiations for cable channel space and the broadcast team are all set to go. Perry says “The enthusiasm and commitment of our Dove Radio supporters has played a significant role in financing this venture. We really appreciate the great help from our UCB family through Shine TV in New Zealand and UCB TV in the U.K. I don’t see how we could have managed it without them”

This is the 3rd TV channel build in the UCB group for TV manager Michael Brown who moved with his family from New Zealand to join The Dove team. “It has been interesting to see how people have responded to our test broadcasts here. They really enjoy the variety of programmes we offer from many different parts of the world”
