Hello friends, I received the following message from a local sound tech, and found to my dismay that my wireless mike, and many others, become illegal in three weeks. I encourage anyone with a wireless mike who isn't familiar with this imminent policy to follow the links below. Meanwhile, a quick plea for advice: I have been very pleased with my Samson Airline system, recommended to me by users of this listserv, and would love to know what Samson Airline systems you all would recommend that don't operate in the 698-806 MHz band. Thanks --Jeremy, Southern CA In January 2010, the FCC announced that the operation of wireless microphones in the 700 MHz band (698 – 806 MHz) will not be permitted after June 12, 2010. These frequencies have been reallocated for new wireless communication services (cell phones and public service). For more information: http://www.fcc.gov/cgb/wirelessmicrophones/ To see if your wireless microphone operates on the 700 MHz band, go to; http://www.fcc.gov/cgb/wirelessmicrophones/manufacturers.html Click on the name of the manufacturer and see if your model is listed. If it is listed, it is a 700 MHz wireless microphone and can not be used (sold or repaired) after June 12, 2010. If you can find your manufacturer’s name and your equipment is not listed, then you may continue using your wireless microphone because it does not operate in the 700 MHz Band. If your manufacturer is not listed, please contact the FCC for additional assistance. Some of the 700 MHz equipment can be modified and there are trade-in rebates available. _________________________________________________________________ Hotmail is redefining busy with tools for the New Busy.
