On June 6, NAB filed comments with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) on a technology called “ZoneCasting,” which is designed to create zones for geo-targeting content to listeners using FM boosters. Since FCC rules currently prohibit content origination by boosters, deployment of ZoneCasting would require a rule change, hence the FCC’s interest in this matter.

We’re thrilled to be back in Las Vegas to kick off the NAB Show, and we’re all excited to connect with the people that make up the NAB Show community. It's been a couple of years since we last gathered in Las Vegas, and it's an entirely reimagined experience. If you're a broadcast engineer or media technologist looking for a little help finding the "must do" events, use our daily guides. For each day of the Show, we've compiled a list of the things that we'll be sure not to miss.

NAB Show 2022 comes to close, and we look forward to seeing you again at NAB Show New York October 19-20, 2022

It's another full day of programming and ends with a return of the Amateur Radio Operators Reception, also known as the HAM Reception. 

Monday at NAB Show, we start by hearing NAB President and CEO Curtis LeGeyt's first ever state of the broadcast industry remarks, and we'll see a demonstration of a precision drone fight using ATSC 3.0 RTK datacast. The day ends with the Futures Park Press Conference and Reception.

For the first time ever, the exhibition floor opens on SUNDAY! Lace up comfortable shoes and hit the floor starting at 10 a.m. Be sure to stop by the PILOT booth in Futures Park in the West Hall.

While exhibitors (including PILOT) put the finishing touches on the show floor, the conference programming begins, and we start with a can't miss event for broadcast engineers and media technologists - the BEIT Conference Opening Session.

The HAM reception, sponsored this year by Turner Engineering, is where hundreds of broadcasting’s best and brightest, from company CEO’s to shop technicians, spend a relaxed evening talking shop, swapping tales and enjoying the fellowship of the amateur radio community.
