Where Is The Local Access TV Stuff Kept?
Town's local access TV equipment is in a small room at LHS that's easy to miss and which vaguely reminds your local editor of his first studio apartment.
Early in the year, this website and to upgrade existing services.
Since then, I've been curious about where the current Lynnfield Cable Access facility is. It turned out I've probably walked past it a dozen times in the past year when attending various events at Lynnfield High School - and there may also be a chance that students of past decades once spent their detention time in the stuffy little window-less space.
I finally tracked down the Lynnfield Cable Access studio after a recent school committee meeting with help from director Eric Hamlin, who gave a brief tour of the facilities and some of the equipment. At first glance, I thought some of the equipment dated back to the 1990s, but Hamlin said it was actually closer to seven or eight years old.

This little space looks like it was once a custodians' closet or something. However, its history may be far more colorful than that - Hamlin says he was once told by a longtime custodian that the space was actually once used as detention room for unruly LHS students.
So here you have it. Chances are a lot of us have walked past this little piece of life in Lynnfield while visiting LHS and been unaware of what's on the other side of that obscure door just around the corner from the main office.
