DeTV was a 1980s fan-run tape-tree for fans of DeForest Kelley. It was run by Juanita Simser nee Wesley.

Fans were asked to tape shows that included the actor and send them to the tape-tree organizers, who then made tapes for other fans. Fans could request copies of these tapes for the price of postage.

In 1987, it was advertised in The DeForest Dispatch and perhaps other places:

Juanita wanted me to thank those of you who are sending in new additions to our video library on De. We should have a new, updated DeTV list for you in a few months. Thanks, folks. General response to DeTV has been excellent. Most of you are very pleased with the quality of the tapes, but if you have a complaint be sure to let us know. In most cases we won't be able to do anything to better the quality, but there are a few exceptions. And if you're willing to share something that you have and we don't, please contact us.
