I'm wondering if any of the local Apple/Mac user groups are planning on
picking up this satellite feed from Apple.

I had to travel to Madison last year because no-one in the Milwaukee area
could organize anything.

I know that Double-Click meets at UWM.  Is it possible that UWM might have
a facility available for such an event?

Several people from the WAUC user group would be interested in attending
if someone can come up with a site with a dish.

I've tacked the release from Apple, Inc. onto the end of this post.  I've
also got specific satellite information available if anyone is interested.

Thanks,
Ron

UG-TV
Only 27 Days left...
 
before the second National UG-TV Broadcast scheduled for Wednesday evening,
October 28, 1992, 6:00 p.m. Pacific Time, 9:00 p.m. Eastern Time.
 
To give you an idea of who and what you will see on the show, Ray Kaupp,
Manager of the UGC, and I will be talking with the World Wide Product Managers
from the following product groups: System Software, Desktop Products, Consumer
Products, and Portable Products.  Each product segment will end with a Q&A from
around the country via an 800 number which will be displayed on the screen
during the broadcast.  There will be additional segments on Apple II, Newton,
video clips, and a raffle.
 
As you look for a site to view the broadcast, don't forget your local cable TV
company.  Last year we had a number of cable companies broadcast the show live
on their local community access cable channels in California, Oregon, Arizona,
and Virginia to name just a few.  It might just take a quick phone call from
you for UG-TV to be shown on cable in your town.
 
Satellite downlink sites are readily available if cable isn't an option.
Attached are the technical details a Broadcast Site Coordinator will need to
locate a downlink site for your User Group.
 
I also want to add that both of these options are VERY easy to do!  So get out
there and find a downlink site and be part of the Nationwide Apple User Group
meeting.
 
For further UG-TV details look on the User Group Connection bulletin board on
AppleLink and America Online or send us a message via AppleLink: User .Groups
or AOL: Apple UGC.  You can also give me a call at (408) 974-3180.
 
Regards,
 
Rye Livingston
User Group Connection
