Continuing Education for Radio Engineers

We know that most of you are extremely busy maintaining multiple facilities, covering station IT issues and trying to keep up with the latest technological advancements that may affect your company's business.

Now is the perfect time to put the 2011 NAB Show on your calendar. The Broadcast Engineering Conference takes place April 9 - 14 at the show in Las Vegas. The conference, along with the world's largest electronic media exposition, offers the best way for you to stay on top of radio and allied industry developments. Attending conference sessions at the NAB Show helps toward SBE recertification. Meeting with technical representatives of broadcast equipment manufacturers will get answers to your nagging problems. And of course, getting a chance to meet with your colleagues and business associates make the trip to Las Vegas even more worthwhile.

Especially for radio engineers and those in allied industries, the Broadcast Engineering Conference will feature presentations on the Future of Radio, Improving HD Radio, RDS Implementation and Emergency Operations.

A special all-day session chaired by Glynn Walden, Senior VP Engineering, CBS Radio will address a variety of topics important to radio broadcasters. The Radio Engineering Forum takes place on Tuesday, April 12.

Here is a listing of just a few papers that will be presented at the Radio Engineering Forum:
