WATERLOO â The âBâ in BTV stands for âBaron,â but this school year, it also could represent âbetterâ and âbigger.â
DeKalb High Schoolâs television channel now offers more programming, and it is reaching far more viewers through Auburn Essential Services.
BTV programs now are available to all internet users, free of charge, at auburnessentialservices.net through the Your Community Network platform. It also may be viewed by AES video subscribers on Channels 10 and 22.
Until last fall, âAES had a platform, but nothing to put on it,â and the school had programming, but needed a place to show it, said Jed Freels, instructor for the BTV class at DeKalb High School.
