Central Minnesota Chapter 17 Society of Broadcast Engineers |
We are a non-profit professional organization of radio and television engineers who build, repair and update radio and television broadcast facilities. All broadcast engineers are welcome to join our group. Chapter 17 has 70 members, of which about 20 are SBE certified. Most live and work in Minnesota and Wisconsin. We meet monthly to exchange ideas and increase skill level. There is also an annual summer picnic and holiday party in December. Many meetings are being held online as well as in person.
There are no strangers, only engineers you haven't met.
Broadcast Engineer is spoken here.
