Cable 6 is the channel Glasgow and Barren County have turned to since 1989 for local events. Between replays of school programs, Small Claims court, youth sports, graduations, parades and many other local events, over 20,000 people can see your video billboard ad!

When you advertise on Cable 6, your video billboard ad stays up for 15-seconds at a time, continuously in each rotation. Ads come up, along with information about what's going on in Barren County. The times when your ad can be seen are shown below. This is a very economical and cost effective way to help promote your business or just sell something. Think of it as Barren County's biggest yard sale!

Programming Schedule for Cable 6
  LIVE from WCLU: The yellow sections of the schedule are local news, carried LIVE from the studios of WCLU radio. WCLU has been a local news leader since its beginning. Now, with coverage on Cable 6, you can finally put a face to all the voices that you've known and trusted for years.
Community Bulletin Board and Local Advertising: Glasgow and Barren County tune in here for all the latest events for local nonprofit groups, such as clubs and churches. This is also where you'll find "video billboards" and classified ads. Want to promote something new your business is doing? Do you have new hours or a new Website? Want to sell your couch, your car, your video camera or your boat? This is the perfect, low-cost way to let people see it. This information and advertising will run during all the time blocks in green and also anytime when LO programming is not running.
Locally-Originated Programming: This is the local programming that the EPB introduced to this community way back in 1989. Our personnel go out and tape local events for replay. In some cases, you bring us the programming and we replay it for everyone!

Tips for an Effective Ad
Keep it simple.
15 seconds is a long time to be able to see something, read it, even write down a phone number. However, to be really effective, make sure something is dominant, that something really stands out. That element will grab viewers' attention.
Keep it short.
The more words there are to fit in, the smaller the text will have to be to make it fit the screen. There is, however, an alternative. Use more than one frame for your advertising. Your message will have not only more room, but also more time on-screen. Additional frames (several frames of the same car, boat, house, etc.) are half-rate. They're a great value!
Use a photo or a company logo in your ad.
Most people are very "visual." Don't you remember someone's name easier if you've seen it on their shirt or nametag? Visual elements not only grab attention, they also help get your message across.
Ask us.
If you have a specific idea for what you want, tell us. We'll do our best to make sure it's exactly what you're looking for (our contact information is below).
