                            ------------------------
                            (A Limited Partnership)

                    NOTES TO UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                    ---------------------------------------

(1)  This Form 10-Q is being filed in conformity with the SEC requirements for
unaudited financial statements and does not contain all of the necessary
footnote disclosures required for a fair presentation of the Balance Sheets and
Statements of Operations and Cash Flows in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles. However, in the opinion of management, this data includes
all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring accruals, necessary to
present fairly the financial position of Cable TV Fund 11-A, Ltd. (the
"Partnership") at March 31, 1997 and December 31, 1996 and its Statements of
Operations and Cash Flows for the three month periods ended March 31, 1997 and
1996. Results of operations for these periods are not necessarily indicative of
results to be expected for the full year.

     The Partnership is a Colorado limited partnership that was formed pursuant
to the public offering of limited partnership interests in the Cable TV Fund 11
Limited Partnership Program (the "Program"), which was sponsored by Jones
Intercable, Inc. (the "General Partner"), to acquire, own and operate cable
television systems in the United States.  Cable TV Fund 11-B, Ltd. ("Fund 11-
B"), Cable TV Fund 11-C, Ltd. ("Fund 11-C") and Cable TV Fund 11-D, Ltd. ("Fund
11-D") are other partnerships that were formed pursuant to the Program.  The
Partnership, Fund 11-B, Fund 11-C and Fund 11-D formed a general partnership
known as Cable TV Joint Fund 11 (the "Venture") in which the Partnership owns an
18 percent interest.  The Partnership does not directly own any cable television
systems.  The Partnership's only asset is its 18 percent ownership interest in
the Venture, and the Venture's only asset is the cable television system serving
subscribers in Manitowoc, Wisconsin (the "Manitowoc System").

(2)  The Venture has entered into an asset purchase agreement to sell the
Manitowoc System to a subsidiary of the General Partner. Because the City of
Manitowoc had not consented to the transfer of the franchise by the asset
purchase agreement's original expiration date of September 30, 1996, the Venture
and the General Partner amended the asset purchase agreement to extend the
period in which to close the sale of the Manitowoc System to June 30, 1997.
Under the terms of the asset purchase agreement, as amended, the sales price of
the Manitowoc System will be $16,122,333.

     The closing of the sale of the Manitowoc System is subject to the approval
of the limited partners of each of the partnerships that comprise the Venture.
There can be no assurance that such approvals will be obtained.  The General
Partner, on behalf of the partnerships that comprise the Venture, is in the
process of preparing proxy solicitation materials to seek the approval of the
limited partners of the four constituent partnerships of the Venture.

     After the sale of the Manitowoc System, the Partnership will receive 18
percent of the net sales proceeds plus cash on hand from operations and prior
sales, estimated to total approximately $3,542,853.  The Partnership will repay
$10,781 to the General Partner and the remaining proceeds of approximately
$3,532,072 will be available for the Partnership to distribute to its partners.
Cash generated from operations of approximately $231,471 will be distributed 99
percent to the limited partners and 1 percent to the General Partner.  Because
limited partners have already received distributions in an amount in excess of
the capital initially contributed to the Partnership by the limited partners,
the Partnership's portion of the remaining proceeds from the sale of other
Wisconsin systems formerly owned by the Venture and the net proceeds from the
sale of the Manitowoc System will be distributed 75 percent to the limited
partners and 25 percent to the General Partner.  Based upon pro forma financial
information as of March 31, 1997, the limited partners of the Partnership, as a
group, will receive approximately $2,701,912 and the General Partner will
receive approximately $830,160.  As a result, it is anticipated that the limited
partners will receive approximately $58 for each $500 limited partnership
interest, or approximately $116 for each $1,000 invested in the Partnership.
Once the Partnership has completed the distribution of these amounts, limited
partners of the Partnership will have received a total of approximately $1,269
for each $500 limited partnership interest, or approximately $2,538 for each
$1,000 invested in the Partnership, taking into account the prior distributions
to limited partners made in 1988 and 1990.  After the Partnership distributes
these amounts, the Partnership will be dissolved and liquidated.

(3)  The General Partner manages the Partnership and the Venture and receives a
fee for its services equal to 5 percent of the gross revenues of the Venture,
excluding revenues from the sale of cable television systems or franchises.
Management fees paid by the Venture and attributable to the Partnership for the
three month periods ended March 31, 1997 and 1996 (reflecting the Partnership's
18 percent interest in the Venture) were $8,562 and $8,408, respectively.

                                       5

     The Venture reimburses the General Partner for certain allocated overhead
and administrative expenses.  These expenses represent the salaries and related
benefits paid for corporate personnel, rent, data processing services and other
corporate facilities costs.  Such personnel provide engineering, marketing,
administrative, accounting, legal and investor relations services to the
Venture.  Such services, and their related costs, are necessary to the
operations of the Venture and would have been incurred by the Venture if it was
a stand alone entity.  Allocations of personnel costs are primarily based on
actual time spent by employees of the General Partner with respect to each
partnership managed.  Remaining expenses are allocated based on the pro rata
relationship of the Venture's revenues to the total revenues of all systems
owned or managed by the General Partner and certain of its subsidiaries.
Systems owned by the General Partner and all other systems owned by partnerships
for which Jones Intercable, Inc. is the general partner are also allocated a
proportionate share of these expenses.  The General Partner believes that the
methodology used in allocating overhead and administrative expenses is
reasonable.  The amount of allocated overhead and administrative expenses
charged to the Venture and attributable to the Partnership for the three month
periods ending March 31, 1997 and 1996 (reflecting the Partnership's 18 percent
interest in the Venture) were $12,297 and $11,434, respectively.

(4)  Financial information regarding the Venture is presented below.

                            (A Limited Partnership)

        MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
        ---------------------------------------------------------------
                             RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                             ---------------------

FINANCIAL CONDITION
- -------------------

     The Partnership owns an 18 percent interest in the Venture. The
Partnership's investment in the Venture, accounted for under the equity method,
has increased by $31,093 to $1,421,819 at March 31, 1997 from $1,390,726 at
December 31, 1996. This increase represents the Partnership's proportionate
share of net income generated by the Venture during the first quarter of 1997.

     The Venture has entered into an asset purchase agreement to sell the
Manitowoc System to a subsidiary of the General Partner.  Because the City of
Manitowoc had not consented to the transfer of the franchise by the asset
purchase agreement's original expiration date of September 30, 1996, the Venture
and the General Partner amended the asset purchase agreement to extend the
period in which to close the sale of the Manitowoc System to June 30, 1997.
Under the terms of the asset purchase agreement, as amended, the sales price of
the Manitowoc System will be $16,122,333.

     The closing of the sale of the Manitowoc System is subject to the approval
of the limited partners of each of the partnerships that comprise the Venture.
There can be no assurance that such approvals will be obtained.  The General
Partner, on behalf of the partnerships that comprise the Venture, is in the
process of preparing proxy solicitation materials to seek the approval of the
limited partners of the four constituent partnerships of the Venture.

     After the sale of the Manitowoc System, the Partnership will receive 18
percent of the net sales proceeds plus cash on hand from operations and prior
sales, estimated to total approximately $3,542,853.  The Partnership will repay
$10,781 to the General Partner and the remaining proceeds of approximately
$3,532,072 will be available for the Partnership to distribute to its partners.
Cash generated from operations of approximately $231,471 will be distributed 99
percent to the limited partners and 1 percent to the General Partner.  Because
limited partners have already received distributions in an amount in excess of
the capital initially contributed to the Partnership by the limited partners,
the Partnership's portion of the remaining proceeds from the sale of other
Wisconsin systems formerly owned by the Venture and the net proceeds from the
sale of the Manitowoc System will be distributed 75 percent to the limited
partners and 25 percent to the General Partner.  Based upon pro forma financial
information as of March 31, 1997, the limited partners of the Partnership, as a
group, will receive approximately $2,701,912 and the General Partner will
receive approximately $830,160.  As a result, it is anticipated that the limited
partners will receive approximately $58 for each $500 limited partnership
interest, or approximately $116 for each $1,000 invested in the Partnership.
Once the Partnership has completed the distribution of these amounts, limited
partners of the Partnership will have received a total of approximately $1,269
for each $500 limited partnership interest, or approximately $2,538 for each
$1,000 invested in the Partnership, taking into account the prior distributions
to limited partners made in 1988 and 1990.  After the Partnership distributes
these amounts, the Partnership will be dissolved and liquidated.

     During the first three months of 1997, the Venture expended approximately
$144,000 for capital additions in the Manitowoc System.  These capital additions
were for various enhancements to maintain the value of the system until it is
sold.  These expenditures were funded from cash generated from operations.

     The Venture had no bank debt outstanding at March 31, 1997.

     The Venture has sufficient liquidity and capital resources, including cash
on hand and its ability to generate cash from operations, to meet its
anticipated needs.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- ---------------------

     All of the Partnership's operations are generated through its 18 percent
interest in the Venture.

     Revenues of the Venture increased $16,919, or approximately 2 percent, to
$939,814 for the three month period ended March 31, 1997 compared to $922,895 in
1996.  This increase in revenues was a result of increases in the number

                                       8
<PAGE>
 
of basic service subscribers and basic service rate increases. The number of
basic service subscribers increased by 326, or approximately 3 percent, to
11,692 at March 31, 1997 from 11,366 at March 31, 1996. This increase in basic
service revenues was partially offset by decreases in premium service and
advertising revenues. No other individual factor contributed to the increase in
revenues.

     Operating expenses consist primarily of costs associated with the operation
and administration of the Manitowoc System.  The principal cost components are
salaries paid to system personnel, programming expenses, professional fees,
subscriber billing costs, rent for leased facilities, cable system maintenance
expenses and marketing expenses.

     Operating expenses in the Manitowoc System increased $3,448, or
approximately 1 percent, to $581,516 for the three month period ended March 31,
1997 compared to $578,068 in 1996.  Operating expenses represented approximately
62 percent of revenues in 1997 compared to approximately 63 percent of revenues
in 1996.  This increase was primarily due to an increase in programming
expenses.  No other individual factor contributed significantly to the increase
in operating expenses.

     The cable television industry generally measures the financial performance
of a cable television system in terms of operating cash flow (revenues less
operating expenses).  This measure is not intended to be a substitute or
improvement upon the items disclosed on the financial statements, rather it is
included because it is an industry standard.  Operating cash flow increased
$13,471, or approximately 4 percent, to $358,298 for the three month period
ended March 31, 1997 compared to $344,827 in 1996.  This increase was due to the
increase in revenues exceeding the increase in operating expenses.

     Management fees and allocated overhead from the General Partner increased
$5,583, or approximately 5 percent, to $114,485 for the three month period ended
March 31, 1997 compared to $108,902 in 1996.  This increase was primarily due to
the increase in revenues, upon which such management fees and allocated expenses
from the General Partner are based and the timing of certain expenses allocated
from the General Partner.

     Depreciation and amortization expense increased $15,702, or approximately
15 percent, to $123,737 for the three month period ended March 31, 1997 compared
to $108,035 in 1996 due to capital additions in 1996.

     Operating income decreased $7,814, or approximately 6 percent, to $120,076
for the three month period ended March 31, 1997 compared to $127,890 in 1996.
This decrease was due to the increases in operating expenses, management fees
and allocated overhead from the General Partner and depreciation and
amortization expense exceeding the increase in revenues.

     Interest expense decreased $4,233, or approximately 87 percent, to $616 for
the three month period ended March 31, 1997 compared to $4,849 in 1996.  This
decrease was due to lower outstanding balances on interest bearing obligations.

     Interest income decreased $4,634, or approximately 8 percent, to $51,040
for the three month period ended March 31, 1997 compared to $55,674 in 1996.
This decrease was due to lower interest rates on interest-bearing accounts in
1997.

     The Venture had other income of $154 for the three month period ended March
31, 1997 compared to other expense of $135,584 in 1996.  This change was due
primarily to additional expenses incurred in 1996 from a sales and use tax
audit.

     Net income of the Venture increased $127,523 to $170,654 for the three
month period ended March 31, 1997 compared to $43,131 in 1996.  This increase
was due primarily to the decrease in other expense.
