We had a great meeting last month hosted by Dan Somes at the Journal Broadcast Group's newly renovated facilities. http://www.journalbroadcastgroup.com/LocationLocationLocation/TucsonRadioOperations/tabid/1903/Default.aspx
Dan was kind enough to give the attendees a tour of the facilities after the main presentation was completed. Our featured presenter was Mr. Bruce Robertson of Digital Alert Systems. Bruce gave an overview of the EAS system from its start thru its current state and where we "should" be in the next year. Bruce included in his presentation his company's EAS equipment. You can read more about the equipment here. http://www.digitalalertsystems.com/DAS.htm

Chairman: Mike Irby
Vice Chairman: Walcott Denison III
Treasurer: Bruce Robertson
Secretary: Lynne Alexander
Our next meeting will be held at the Clear Channel facility on December 10th at 6 PM.
