The Board met at the Cable Studio and the meeting was called to order at 10:11am by the Chairman Margaret Case. Also present were Leo Hart, Alan Shoemaker, J Gross members and Lisa Evarts Consultant. Barbara Coish, recording secretary took the minutes.
Excused were David Unger, Mary Griffin, Christopher Doyle and Jim Daddona, Coodinator.
The previous minutes of December 14th were reviewed. J Gross moved; Leo Hart second to approved the minutes with the amendment that David Unger was excused on that date. Approved.
The end of the year financial report was not available. An invoice list of payments made in December was available and there was a total of $7342.94 spent on equipment, telephone etc.
The Adelphia report for December was received. There were 3172 customers; new 54; disconnects for various reasons 38 and Powerlink 324.
The Board discussed three concerns WCAB has with Adelphia. These were discussed at length   and will be followed up after further research. The concerns are as follows.
1. Powerlink should be part of the Adelphia gross revenue. The contract on this item may need to      be reemphasized.
2. The 5.25% franchise fee as opposed to the 3.090% customer charge.
3. The fee on fee charge.
The Chairman read several letters concerning these items. A subcommittee will meet to     investigate and clarify these issues further.
It was noted that the Cable Studio was presented a plaque of appreciation from the ZBA for continued volunteer effort in televising their meetings.
Adelphia has announced that on Wednesday January 29th the final node will be activated and the rebuild in Windham will be complete.
There has been some concern expressed by a resident about the 4x4 posts necessary in some areas for electrical power for meters. PSNH has determined that this is what Adelphia must use.
These posts are in the right of way. To further discuss these posts is beyond the scope of the authority of the WCAB and the placement was the decision of PSNH. The Board will send a memo to David Sullivan with this explanation so that the Town will have information in case of inquiries.
Jim Daddona submitted his monthly report. There are many new programs being produced and the WCAB praised Jim for his continued fine work as coordinator.
A subcommittee has been drafting a survey which the WCAB reviewed. It was voted to send one survey to each postal delivery and one to each post office box. WCAB will have 5000 surveys printed and mailed.
The WCAB thanks the subcommittee of Jim Daddona, Lisa Evarts and David Unger for their fine work on this project.
Changing the meeting day of the WCAB was discussed. It was determined to change the meeting to the first Thursday of the month at 7pm. Meetings will be on March 6, April 3, May 1 and
June 5.  A February meeting if needed will be called by the Chairman.
The meeting adjourned at 12:00noon followed by a demonstration by J Gross of our new digital editing system.

Respectfully submitted,
Barbara Coish, Recording Secretary
