Columbus, Ohio to Host SBE's National Meeting 

The 2011 National Meeting of the Society of Broadcast Engineers will be held
on September 27-28 at the Crown Plaza Hotel and the Columbus Convention
Center in downtown Columbus, Ohio. The National Meeting is being held in
conjunction with the Ohio Association of Broadcasters' Ohio Broadcast
Engineering Conference. 

The Ohio Broadcast Engineering Conference is an annual event attended by
broadcast engineers from across the state of Ohio and neighboring states as
well. The Conference is in its ninth year and includes technical papers and
an equipment trade show on the 28th. 

All National Meeting activities will take place at the Crown Plaza Hotel
with the exception of the Annual Membership Meeting at 4 p.m. on the 28th.
That will be held at the convention center across the street from the hotel
in a room adjacent to where the trade show has just wrapped up. Other events
include a Certification Committee meeting and Board of Directors meeting on
the 27th and the annual Fellows Breakfast and Awards Reception and Dinner on
the 28th. 

The dinner program will include the presentation of the SBE Broadcast
Engineer of the Year and the SBE Educator of the Year Awards, to be
announced later in June. Three members will be recognized with the highest
membership rank awarded by the SBE, the SBE Fellow: Chuck Kelly, Halifax,
N.S., Chapter 49; Art Lebermann, CPBE, San Francisco, Chapter 40; Barry
Thomas, CPBE, CBNT, Chapter 5, Atlanta, Ga. 

Chapters and individual members will also be recognized during the dinner
for best technical article, best chapter newsletter, website, regional
conference, most certified chapter and chapters with the greatest percentage
growth and highest average member attendance at chapter meetings. 

Tickets for the reception and dinner are just $15 and can be ordered online
