It hasn't been easy. But rather than give you hype of promises, this will bring you up to date on our progress. Perhaps you are unaware of the millions of dollars involved to get a new television network underway? New equipment, programming and talent are only a few of the factors required for a 24/7 operation. We have had to seek out investors, sponsors and advertisers to become part of our team. Our staff has had one focus only: to get the Triangle Television Network on the air. There has been some concern regarding our change of name from the Gay Television Network to the Triangle Television Network. First, we have had complaints that "gay" has a prominently male orientation and, as we encompass all of our lifestyles, we felt this was a justifiable change. On a second level, we also found that the corporate world still has hang-ups with the term "gay" and while we do not wish to succumb to pressure from outside sources, we must always keep our main goal of getting the Network on the air at the forefront. So, please accept us as Triangle Television Network - a rose by any other name... Thank you again for your tremendous support and your patience. Sincerely, TTN July 2001 - A lot of talk about QBID.

Sept. 5, 2001 THEY MADE IT FOLKS! QBID NOW BROADCASTING ON TWO CHANNELS !!!, , the signal is up and valid/good quality on Telstar 7, Transponder 1 , , KU Feed also available.... , Telstar 5, Transponder 5!!! Sept. 6, 2001 NEWS. Palm Springs, CA,-- Frank Olsen, President of Triangle Multi-Media Limited, Inc, (Symbol: QBID) announced today the company's successfully launch of TTN and its schedule of programming on Wednesday, September 5th Pacific Standard Time. Thereafter, Triangle Television Network hereinafter (TTN) will broadcast gay and lesbian programming 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Sept. 6, 2001 QBID posts FAQ on website. The Triangle Television Network (TTN) launched on September 5, 2001. TTN is the world’s first television network broadcasting television programming exclusively devoted to the gay, lesbian, bi-sexual and transgender (GLBT) communities. The network is approximately 75% gay owned and 80% gay operated. TTN has been in the development stage for over 8 years. Our mission is to provide high-quality programming designed to entertain, educate and inform the GLBT community. TTN wants to bring the gay world to your home with programming created especially for you. 2. How do I receive TTN? TTN offers an open-tier, digital signal available on TelStar 7, Transponder 1 located at 129 degrees west longitude. The footprint for our signal covers the continental US, Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico and Vancouver, Canada. If you do not have the proper sophisticated C-Band equipment to view TTN, your cable company or satellite provider must carry the signal. We wish you could just flip a switch and begin viewing TTN; but, of course, the television broadcast business is not that simple. As people begin to request TTN and we show the cable and satellite providers that TTN will generate enough revenue to justify being carried by them, I assure you they will carry us. But you must call in and request TTN. The TTN signal is available to all cable companies within our footprint. Also, our signal is available for both major satellite providers, DirecTV and The Dish Network. Additionally, the TTN signal is available for the smaller private satellite systems that provide service to gated communities, hotels and apartment complexes. If you want to know more about receiving TTN with a smaller, private system, please contact Ron Foster in our engineering department for service information. For individual residential users that would like to view TTN, there are two steps you need to follow: Step 1: Contact your local cable or satellite provider and tell them “I want my TTN”. (See below if they tell you they have not heard of TTN) Step 2: E-mail us with your zip code. This information will assist us as we solicit the cable companies that are most in demand by you, the subscriber. BONUS STEP: Tell your friends to do the same. If you do not know who your local cable provider is, then e-mail us (paris@triangletelevisionnetwork.com) and we will let you know. People that have the proper C-Band equipment can receive TTN from the satellite coordinates above. 3. Is TTN a subscription channel? Once TTN becomes available through your local cable or satellite provider and you are able to become a subscriber, you will receive a free 30-day viewing period, after which your monthly subscription fee of $14.95 will be billed by your local cable company or satellite provider. 4. How do I contact TTN? TTN is always looking to enhance our product and service. We are open and ready for suggestions from the community. Please contact us at 760.322.1217 or by email (paris@triangletelevisionnetwork.com). 5. What is the TTN programming standard? We consider TTN a family channel. Just because we offer gay and lesbian programming does not mean we are pornographic. Our broadcast standards are the same standards that channels such as Showtime and HBO adhere to. TTN programming will consist of a combination of originally produced programming, gay and lesbian oriented movies, local programming from various cities across America, serials from around the world as well as special event programming. Future plans call for the development of both a full-scale news department and news magazine programs skewed to the gay and lesbian community. Additionally, TTN will broadcast a variety of locally produced programs, such as Gay Court and Gay Bandstand, as well as gay sitcoms. We will also cover national gay events, such as AIDS Conferences and Gay Pride events worldwide. Our Gay Icon series will include features about artists, writers, actors and historical figures. What should I do when I call my cable company or satellite provider and they say they’ve never heard of TTN? The best answer is to say, “The TTN phone number is 760.322.1217. I am sure they would be delighted to send your company a media kit and licensing agreement for TTN. As a matter of fact, as a potential subscriber to TTN, I will call them myself for you. Please let me know whom I should have them send the media kit to.” 7. What is corporate doing to make sure TTN is going to be available so I may be able to view TTN? Currently, we are continuing to negotiate with the two major satellite providers and several major cable companies to carry TTN. Beginning Sept 20, the TTN sales and licensing department will be aggressively contacting the remaining cable companies to solicit licensing agreements to carry TTN. September 10, 2001 Letter From Frank... I want to thank you all for your tremendous response. The Triangle Television Network has launched and testing is being completed. TTN ran selected programming during the test because we did not wish to offend anyone. The variety will increase after testing has been completed. On Wednesday we will begin informing you how to receive TTN. I must remind you again that the fastest way is to contact your local cable company and request your TTN. Once you have done so, please email us with the name and location of your local cable company. If you do not know who your local cable company is, please email us with your zip code and we will provide you with this information. Sept. 14, 2001 Price started to decline and continued all week.

People saying They've threatened legal action in the past, and nothing ever came of it. Probably because a) they couldn't afford it, and b) they knew they didn't really have much of a case. Jan. 26, 2003 - Talks about launching is a better possibility now & The probability of a near term launch of TTN now appears to be rapidly accelerating.

People expecting a rapid move up. News rumors. Launch is probably imminent. They are still broadcasting to TW. Working out the audio and video glitches.

(skunksyard) Unofficial. Spoke with Frank Olsen... Frank said he is now authorized to say that TTN has a 10 year contract with TWC.... From some questions I asked I got the feeling that the launch is more into the fall than this summer... Frank was upbeat. Said QBID owns 100% of TTN. LBS is not a significant factor in QBID in terms of ownership. Bobby Roger and Chris Powell will return for the launch according to Frank. Tom Zamora, and the original folks are still there and that is good news for me. Frank will not discuss the details of the contract but to the question of *does the contract assure a launch* the answer is yes.

As dry leaves that before the wild hurricane fly, And then, in a twinkling, I heard on the roof He was dressed in pink fur, from his head to his foot, His arse how it twinkled - its dimples so glare-y!

I just don`t get it. It had its pop so why doesn`t evryone move on. Take a lesson from ibzt. When there core product the vkb went away so did the share price. It still float a little on the hope of other products. Well Q only has one game and unlike ibzt if that thing fails its price will go to -0-. Do you really think a pink sheet company can compete with the Titans of the brocasting world. come on. Salvage what you have left to trade another day. not a bash but a informed opinion. IP: Logged |
