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.
Upcoming:
The next SBE 17 meeting is on Thursday, October 17, 2024: We’ll hear from Jeff Williams, head of Yellowtec’s North America wing. That’s taking place at the WCCO Radio studios in the Cambria Building (625 Second Avenue South), between the Nicollet Mall and Government Plaza light rail stations in Downtown Minneapolis. We’re hoping to get started around 11:30 a.m., since Mr. Williams will have a bit of a time zone difference. Lunch will be served, you can join us virtually, and if we’re lucky, we might even get to tour the place.
If you can make it, I’d like your RSVPs by Tuesday, October 15, please. Program Chairman Taylor Robert Barker [email protected] |
