                         PROMISSORY NOTE

$2,000,000.00                                    Washington, D.C.
Maturity Date: February 1, 1998                 November 24, 1997

     FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, THE NOSTALGIA NETWORK, 
INC. a Delaware corporation ("Maker"), hereby promises to pay to 
the order of CROWN COMMUNICATIONS CORPORATION, a Delaware 
corporation, or any subsequent holder or holders ("Holder") of 
this Promissory Note (this "Note"), at 650 Massachusetts Avenue, 
N.W., Washington, D.C. 20001, or at such other place as Holder 
may from time to time designate in writing, the principal sum of 
two million dollars ($2,000,000.00), together with all accrued 
interest on such outstanding balance, in accordance with the 
terms and provisions of this Note.

     1.     Interest; Payments.  Interest shall accrue on the 
unpaid principal balance of this Note from and after the date of 
this Note at a per annum rate equal to the Prime Rate as 
published in the Wall Street Journal on November 24, 1997, 
compounded monthly.  The principal balance, together with all 
remaining unpaid interest accrued thereon shall be due and 
payable on February 1, 1998 (the "Maturity Date").

     2.     Payments.  All payments by Maker hereunder shall be 
applied (i) first to any collection costs pursuant to Paragraph 8 
hereof, (ii) second to the interest due and unpaid under this 
Note, and (iii) thereafter, to any principal owing under this 
Note.

     3.     Prepayment.  Maker shall have the right to prepay, in 
part or in full, without penalty, this Note (together with all 
accrued interest to the date of prepayment on the amount of 
principal thus prepaid) at any time or times.

     4.     Waiver Regarding Notice.  Maker waives presentment, 
demand and presentation for payment, protest and notice of 
protest, and, except as otherwise specifically provided herein, 
any other notices of whatever kind or nature, bringing of suit 
and diligence in taking any action to collect any sums owing 
hereunder.  From time to time, without in any way affecting the 
obligation of Maker to pay the outstanding principal balance of 
this Note and any interest accrued thereon and fully to observe 
and perform the covenants and obligations of Maker under this 
Note, without giving notice to, or obtaining the consent of, 
Maker, and without any liability whatsoever on the part of 
Holder, Holder may, at its option, extend the time for payment of 
interest hereon and/or principal of this Note, reduce the 
payments hereunder, release anyone liable on this Note or accept 
a renewal of this Note, join in any extension or subordination, 
or exercise any right or election hereunder.  No one or more of 
such actions shall constitute a novation or operate to release 
any party liable for or under this Note, either as Maker or 
otherwise.

<PAGE>

     5.     Events of Default.  Each of the following shall 
constitute an "Event of Default" hereunder:

            (a)     Maker's failure to make any required payment 
of principal and/or interest under this Note, or any other amount 
due and payable under this Note, which failure continues for a 
period of ten (10) days after written notice of such failure is 
sent by Holder to Maker;

            (b)     The occurrence of an event of default under 
that certain Security Agreement by and between Maker and Holder 
dated as of March 21, 1997, as amended (the "Security Agreement);

            (c)     The occurrence of an event of default under 
that certain promissory note dated as of the date hereof by Maker 
payable to Concept Communications, Inc., a Delaware corporation 
("Concept"); 

            (d)     The occurrence of an event of default under 
those certain Security Agreements by and between Maker and 
Concept and Crown dated as of March 21, 1997;

            (e)     Maker's failure to perform any other 
obligation (other than one that can be satisfied with the payment 
of money) required under this Note, and the continuation of such 
failure for a period of ten (10) days after Holder gives Maker 
written notice of such failure to perform; and

            (f)     Maker's insolvency, general assignment for 
the benefit of creditors, or the commencement by or against Maker 
of any case, proceeding, or other action seeking reorganization, 
arrangement, adjustment, liquidation, dissolution, or composition 
of Maker's debts under any law relating to bankruptcy, 
insolvency, or reorganization, or relief of debtors, or seeking 
appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian, or other similar 
official for Maker or for all or any substantial part of Maker's 
assets.

     6.     Acceleration.  Upon the occurrence of an Event of 
Default, Holder shall have the right to cause the entire unpaid 
principal balance, together with all accrued interest thereon, 
reasonable attorneys' and paralegals' fees and all fees, charges, 
costs and expenses, if any, owed by Maker to Holder, to become 
immediately due and payable in full by giving written notice to 
Maker.

     7.     Remedies.  Upon the occurrence of an Event of 
Default, Holder may avail itself of any legal or equitable rights 
which Holder may have at law or in equity or under this Note, 
including, but not limited to, the right to accelerate the 
indebtedness due under this Note as described in the preceding 
sentence.  The remedies of Holder as provided herein shall be 
distinct and cumulative, and may be pursued singly, successively 

<PAGE>

or together, at the sole discretion of Holder, and may be 
exercised as often as occasion therefor shall arise.  Failure to 
exercise any of the foregoing options upon the occurrence of an 
Event of Default shall not constitute a waiver of the right to 
exercise the same or any other option at any subsequent time in 
respect to the same or any other Event of Default, and no single 
or partial exercise of any right or remedy shall preclude other 
or further exercise of the same or any other right or remedy.  
Holder shall have no duty to exercise any or all of the rights 
and remedies herein provided or contemplated.  The acceptance by 
Holder of any payment hereunder that is less than payment in full 
of all amounts due and payable at the time of such payment shall 
not constitute a waiver of the right to exercise any of the 
foregoing rights or remedies at that time, or nullify any prior 
exercise of any such rights or remedies without the express 
written consent of Holder.

     8.     Expenses of Collection.  If this Note is referred to 
an attorney for collection, whether or not arbitration has been 
initiated or any other action instituted or taken to enforce or 
collect under this Note, Maker shall pay all of Holder's costs, 
fees (including in-house and outside counsels' reasonable 
attorneys' and paralegals' fees) and expenses in connection with 
such referral.

     9.     Governing Law.  The provisions of this Note shall be 
governed and construed according to the law of the District of 
Columbia, without giving effect to its conflicts of laws 
provisions.

     10.     Security.  Payment of the indebtedness evidenced by 
this Note is secured by certain assets of Maker pledged to Holder 
pursuant to the Security Agreement.

     11.     No Waiver.  Neither any course of dealing by Holder 
nor any failure or delay on its part to exercise any right, power 
or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver of any right or 
remedy of Holder hereunder unless said waiver is in writing and 
signed by Holder, and then only to the extent specifically set 
forth in said writing.  A waiver as to one event shall not be 
construed as a continuing waiver by Holder or as a bar to or 
waiver of any right or remedy by Holder as to any subsequent 
event.

     12.     Notices.

            (a)     All notices hereunder shall be in writing and 
shall either be hand delivered, with receipt therefor, or sent by 
Federal Express or similar courier, with receipt therefor, or by 
certified or registered mail, postage prepaid, return receipt 
requested, as follows:

Notices shall be effective when received; provided, however, that 
if any notice sent by courier or by certified or registered mail 
is returned as undeliverable, such notice shall be deemed 
effective when mailed or given to such courier.

            (b)     Any of the foregoing persons may change the 
address to which notices are to be delivered to it hereunder by 
giving written notice to the others as provided in this Paragraph 
13(b).

     13.     Severability.  In the event that any one or more of 
the provisions of this Note shall for any reason be held to be 
invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such 
invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any 
other provision of this Note, and this Note shall be construed as 
if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never 
been contained herein.

     14.     Limitations of Applicable Law.  In the event the 
operation of any provision of this Note results in an effective 
rate of interest transcending the limit of the usury or any other 
law applicable to the loan evidenced hereby, all sums in excess 
of those lawfully collectible as interest for the period in 
question shall, without further agreement or notice by any party 
to this Note, be applied to the unpaid principal balance of this 
Note immediately upon receipt of such monies by Holder, with the 
same force and effect as though Maker had specifically designated 
such extra sums to be so applied to the unpaid principal balance 
and Holder had agreed to accept such extra payment(s) as a 
prepayment.

     15.     Captions.  The captions herein are for convenience 
of reference only and in no way define or limit the scope or 
content of this Note or in any way affect its provisions.

     16.     Debtor-Creditor Relationship.  Holder shall in no 
event be construed for any purpose to be a partner, joint 
venturer or associate of Maker, it being the sole intention of 
the parties to establish a relationship of debtor and creditor.

     17.     Time of the Essence.  It is expressly agreed that 
time is of the essence in the performance of the obligations set 
forth in this Note.

     18.     Binding Arbitration.  Arbitration shall be the 
exclusive procedure for resolving any dispute between the parties 
and shall be conducted in accordance with the rules of the 
American Arbitration Association ("AAA"), including the 
procedures for selecting an arbitrator and for engaging in 
discovery. However, provisional equitable relief may be brought 
in a court of competent jurisdiction.  Any dispute to be 
arbitrated as provided hereunder shall be referred to a sole 
arbitrator selected by the President of AAA with experience and 
expertise in the subject matter of this Agreement.  Should any 
party hereunder not agree to accept as sole arbitrator the person 
selected by the President of AAA, then the case shall be referred 
to a panel of three (3) arbitrators whereby each party shall 
appoint one arbitrator and the two so appointed shall mutually 
agree upon the third arbitrator.  The decision of the 
arbitrator(s) shall be final and may be enforceable in any court 
of competent jurisdiction.  The arbitrator shall be authorized to 
determine the party responsible for payment of attorneys' fees 
and costs; and he/she shall have the authority only to enforce 
the legal and contractual rights of the parties arising hereunder 
and shall not add to, modify, disregard, or refuse to enforce any 
contractual rights.

under seal on this 24th day of November, 1997.
