Meet Our Team

Tim Baxter

Owner/On Air Personality

Tim has been in broadcasting for more than 50 years, starting in radio in Miami, FL, at the age of 16, and was program director for WQAM in Miami before moving to Boone, NC, to be station manager at the local radio station, WATA.

In the 1990’s, he had a vision of what the community needed and was lacking at that time. He brought the first television station to the Boone area, known as MTN, the Mountain Television Network. With his leadership and direction, MTN was profitable from day one. Tim and his wife Janice own and operate a marketing company, Baxter Marketing, Inc., that handles advertising for healthcare providers in the Carolinas and Alaska. For several years, they produced and hosted a weekly half hour television show airing statewide across Alaska promoting doctors and providers. Tim is excited to be bringing TV 5 to North Myrtle Beach. You’ll see him “on the air” and he will be working with our advertisers helping them get their message out to our viewers!

Janice Baxter

Owner/Executive Producer

Janice has extensive broadcast experience, producing, editing and directing numerous live TV shows on the Mountain Television Network in Northwestern NC. She also shot, produced, and directed Alaska Health & Fitness Magazine with her husband Tim as host. It was a weekly half hour television show that aired across the state on the ABC and Fox channels, introducing Alaskans to doctors and healthcare providers. Janice has already been shooting parades and events around North Myrtle Beach and turning them into our local “Fun Breaks”. She is excited to be bringing North Myrtle Beach the new TV 5 channels. Be sure to stop and say hi when you see her out and about!
