9. #1010- complaint that Cox cut her TV line. Thorcomm is not involved. Owner must contact Cox.

7. Presentation by Jose Montalvo and Luis Aguilera from Sun Desert Technologies, based on a recommendation from the TV Committee.

1. Our contract with Direct TV expires in January 2022.
2. Our infrastructure must be updated to RG6 coax. This company would run two lines from the roofs to individual units. New distribution boxes would be installed on the sides of buildings. The old lines would still exist, but the new ones would be isolated within the new boxes so that no other company could access them, eliminating the issue of cutting lines. The megahertz would rise from the current 950 to 2100.
3. OTA – Over-The-Air signal; antennas; would provide about 90 channels in all. If owners would want other channels, they would contract individually with Direct TV, Dish, etc.
4. Prior to the July 13, 2021, board meeting, Luis Aguilera will give us the final price for this project, the setup of a payment schedule, and a written contract.
5. If a contract were accepted, the company would set up appointments with individual groups of tenants regarding unit installations.
