Access Television Network (ATN) is a company based in Irvine, California which distributes infomercials and other paid programming through about 300 cable television systems airing in more than 35 million households. ATN's around-the-clock digital satellite feeds are generally broadcast by cable systems on existing channels during the early morning hours when no regular programming is scheduled. In late 2002, ATN expanded with the purchase of Product Information Network, a similar 24-hour cable advertising network. Founded by William Bernard in 1993, the company is owned by venture capital firm Spectrum Equity Investors and the Hearst Family Fund. [1]
The company uses a transponder on the Galaxy 11 satellite. [2] [3]
