Consulting Firm Gets FCC OK To Test New Video Capture System at NHL Games

Consulting firm Broad Comm is testing a new video capture system at National Hockey League venues this week. The FCC Office of Engineering and Technology on Monday approved a Broad Comm special temporary authority request to use 2210, 2225, 2250 and 2275 MHz for cameras that will be located one to two meters above the ice "and be capable of capturing video both on the ice as well as in the adjacent stands to enhance crowd safety." Broad Comm, whose filing was made by President Louis Libin, described itself on its website as a consulting firm with media clients. Libin also is Advanced TV Broadcasting Alliance's executive director.
