Sennheiser Urges Public Support for Incentive Auction Petition

Sennheiser wants microphone owners and customers to write to the FCC in support of the company’s petition seeking reconsideration of the FCC’s incentive auction report and order on wireless mics (see 1409160061), the company said Wednesday. "The FCC has an enormously difficult task to repurpose spectrum from traditional over-the-air TV broadcast to mobile broadband services -- this is a matter of content distribution," said Joe Ciaudelli, who works on spectrum issues for Sennheiser. "However, spectrum is crucial for content creation as well. It is essential that productions have access to reliable prime spectrum for their most critical wireless links.” The wireless mic company filed the petition in docket 12-268 at the FCC last month.
