Several <br />networks were duplicated because the station is located in the <br />middle of the West Palm Beach and Melbourne -Daytona -Orlando <br />marketing areas. In 1979, the group of private investors that <br />owned the company learned that a substantial amount of capital was <br />needed to expand the system. They decided at that time to sell the <br />system, and in 1980 it was purchased by Jones Intercable. During <br />the eight years Jones Intercable owned the company, the system was <br />completely rebuilt and increased to 27 channels with capital raised <br />through limited partnership offerings. The station was sold to <br />Falcon Cable, also a limited partnership, in 1988. <br />Mr. Vickers stressed that besides providing entertainment, <br />Falcon Cable provides a number of services to the community, <br />including support of Special Olympics, Cystic Fibroses, and cable <br />television in classrooms. The company also helped build the <br />Chamber of Commerce Building in Sebastian. <br />19 <br />BAR ® 2 1993 BOOK 88 FACE 947 <br />
