Sennheiser Recruits Petitioners to Combat FCC Spectrum Auction Before Nov. 12 Deadline

Stage Directions: Sennheiser is urging wireless microphone owners to sign their Petition for Reconsideration with the FCC to set terms on the upcoming UHF spectrum auction. The period for initial reply ends on Nov. 12, and Sennheiser hopes to build momentum for their two demands for the auction.

It's good to know that there is a company out there that is making an effort to stand up for the audio companies. It seems like as more and more wireless technologies are coming out the need for frequencies in the wireless spectrum is increasing. Unfortunately the spectrum is not something that can be increased to fit these needs. Therefore there is a spectrum reallocation that is taking place that would take valuable UHF frequencies from wireless microphones and in-ear monitors. While this is something that may need to happen I do not think that it is fair that it is always the wireless mic companies that are taking the fall every time the FCC needs to shuffle frequencies. I urge all audio companies to stand behind Sennheiser to lobby for our frequencies.
