Hi Uncle Bob...

Sorry to hear about the sales barrier. Seems to me, that station's underwriting staff (assuming it has one) isn't doing its job. If you have a show that's getting a response (as yours certainly was...I saw the show's message board, people were watching the show and they clearly liked it), you'd figure they'd see they had a good thing and go out and sell it for you, rather than make you do it yourself in the middle of everything else you have going.

Maybe a commercial station in the San Bernadino or Riverside areas might be willing to do the job if they won't. If I were the operator of such a station, I'd want a local sports magazine show, to help set me apart from all the LA stations on the cable and build a local image and local following for my station. (In our market, similar shows are run and produced live every Sunday by the ABC and NBC affiliates.)

Hope it works out.

Bob
