On the Tuesday of the Show (which runs from Sunday 10 through to Wednesday 13 at Earls Court One), BEIRG - the British Entertainment Industry Radio Group - will be hosting a Forum to inform attendees of the current situation with regards to the impending sell-off of the RF spectrum.
At present, it appears that if the industry doesn't act, the entire RF Spectrum from 470-862MHz will be auctioned to the highest bidder. The Forum is a chance for anyone affected to have their say and contribute to the debate about how the industry can preserve enough spectrum for it to continue to do what it does, in the way that it does it.
The forum moderators will be Duncan Bell of Autograph Sound recording/sales; Ron Bonner of PLASA; Brian Clarke of Bettersound; Ian Coles of Picture Canning Company; Alan March of Shure Distribution UK and John Steven from Sennheiser UK.
It takes place on Tuesday 12 September in the Piccadilly Room at Earls Court One between 11am and 12pm. If you wish to attend the Forum, then you need to register as a visitor to PLASA '06. Full details of how to register can be found on the website address below.
