BE: Bill introduced to protect wireless mics

An article at BroadcastEngineering.com
reports that Congressman Bobby Rush, D-IL, introduced a bill March 5
aimed at protecting users of wireless mics from harmful interference
that could be generated by proposed unlicensed consumer electronics
devices that would share TV channel spectrum. H.R. 1320 acknowledges
that introduction of such devices “without adequate safeguards” would
interfere with “other existing television band devices already
operating on the unassigned, non-licensed television channels.” It
further states that these existing devices “require protection to
preserve their important operation.”
