Chris,

Thanks for the added info. It is an interesting “behind-the-scenes” issue that many churches will have to deal with… even smaller churches.

Your article leaves out crucial information regarding the wireless signals. The FCC (Federal Communications Commission) in the U.S.A., has proposed that frequencies from the 698 MHz to 806 MHz spectrum band, commonly referred to as the “700 MHz Band,” no longer be available for wireless microphones. Many wireless microphones work above and below that frequency range. Therefore, some wireless microphones will need to be recalibrated or replaced.

I certainly hope it doesn’t interfere with the wireless audio/video feed from the outdoor baptismal pool onto the large screens in the sanctuary – oops, worship center – as the masses on their as – oops, behinds – would miss out on the entertainment – oops!, ordinance.

It behoves them to pray about things such as this. I am wondering, though, if they will take me seriously… Praise the Lord for the Sacred Sandwich. May it keep me ever on my watchful toes!

[...] So AM encourages you to take a moment and visit The Sandwich. Please be sure to pass this important information along to your friends as well. The current feature piece is a most requisite report from the Bohemian Baptist concerning the fight for “sound” doctrine: A tragedy of biblical proportion is poised to strike our land and silence the very voice of Christianity in America. According to Religion News Service, the FCC is in the process of taking the unused segments of TV airwaves and licensing them to major corporations like Motorola and Google. These corporations will then use these “white space” frequencies for their broadband Internet services. The problem is, these frequencies are the very same ones which are currently being used by wireless microphone systems in thousands of churches across the country… (Online source) [...]
