Newsshooter at NAB 2014: A discussion with Sennheiser on wireless frequencies from Chuck Fadely on Vimeo.
If you live in the USA and use wireless microphones, or are looking to buy a set soon, then this issue concerns you. Newsshooter’s Chuck Fadely talks David Missall from Sennheiser about the upcoming FCC auction of the 600mhz range of radio spectrum. This may eliminate wireless mics in Sennheiser’s “B” frequency range along with other manufacturers’ offerings in the 600mhz range.
They discuss the lobbying being done to try and keep parts of the 600mhz band open for wireless mic users, as well as some newer technologies that Sennheiser are developing to work around the problem.
