Alerts regarding Access Humboldt's channels
CHANNEL 10& 12 off the Air: Wednesday Oct 1 2008 due to widespread cable outage. Suddenlink has a broken cable fiber and their crews are working on fixing it. Wendy Purnell gave me the following update this afternoon: A large bundle of fiber was cut on old Arcata Road - the repair involves splicing 68 individual fibers - this takes about 10 minutes each. Suddenlink has parts of Arcata back online and will keep working until the repairs are done. Humboldt County residents can contact Suddenlink at 877-443-3127 or 911 West Wabash, Eureka, California 95501
