FCTV is on channel 3 for Comcast cable subscribers within the Town of Freeport only. It does not come over the air nor will satellite subscribers be able to receive it. According to Maine State law, cable operators are required to assist access facilities with posting program schedules on their electronic program guides. Freeport will be working with Comcast to link our program schedule to their guide in the near future. (last update: August 10, 2021)
