2008. These tests were monitored by Mr. Whitfield and were performed <br />using Hewlett Packard and Trialithic test equipment. The first set of tests <br />covered the 24-hour test and also shows performance regarding all <br />carrier levels and required relationships. The second test also covered <br />carrier levels and expanded to include Carrier to Noise ratio (CIN), <br />Composite Tripple Beat (CTB), In Channel Response and Hum. The test <br />locations included as follows: <br />Test Point <br />ascade <br />Aerial/Underground <br />1 <br />W2_ <br />ode + 5 <br />Aerial <br />2 <br />ode + 5 <br />Underground <br />3 <br />ode + 5 <br />Under <br />round <br />4 <br />Node + 5 <br />Underground <br />5 <br />2620 W. Knox <br />Node + 4 <br />Under <br />round <br />Note: With Time Warner rebuild using fiber optics; their deepest cascade in any <br />part of the system will be 6. This equates to a more reliable infrastructure <br />that creates small outage areas when problems occur. <br />Picture quality was observed using a test television set on every channel <br />at every location during the latter tests at locations 1 - 5. This is a <br />subjective test and not a specific franchise controlled measurement. <br />However, subjective quality is the only measure the subscriber uses in <br />determining how good his/her service is. Depending on circumstances, it <br />is possible for subjective quality to be unacceptable and to have <br />performance still meet all specific FCC requirements. It is also possible <br />for subjective quality to be excellent, yet miss one or more specific <br />requirements. For these reasons, a combination of objective and <br />subjective analysis has been used. Time Warner test channels are as <br />follows: Channels 6, 18, 8, 12, 26, 32, 38, 48, 63, and 78 (ch.6 used for <br />Hum measurement). <br />Overall, performance of the outside test points was very good. All levels <br />were within FCC required specifications and picture quality was good. <br />6.5 Emergency Alert System <br />CSG recommends that Time Warner provide the data for the EAS test at <br />least once annually and include it in the report. Time Warner has <br />provided this years test documentation that shows weekly and monthly <br />testing currently being performed on the EAS system. In reviewing these <br />test results, this has satisfied CSG's requirements for EAS testing. <br />Communications Support Group, VP RPT2008.001 Page 7 <br />
