Since TV channels 52 through 69 were recently auctioned off or given to such applications as cellular or public service “first responders,” the FCC is moving to sweep out existing unauthorized users. Consider, for example, the wireless microphones in your studio.

So it seems especially timely that we have as our presentation guest at our February meeting Criss Niemann, representing Shure wireless microphones and other products.

Criss, Technical Sales Director with Audio Geer will speak at the Chapter 36 SBE meeting at Western Radio Electronics on Wednesday, February 17.  Criss will be talking about how the recent FCC rulings are affecting wireless microphone users. The meeting starts at 12:00 noon and will end around 1:30PM. Shure Audio will provide lunch. Western Radio Electronics is located at 7558 Trade Street, in the Miramar area of San Diego. Members and guests welcome. For more information call Eva at 619-992-2654.
