Section Internet Mailing List

We have a full-featured Internet mailing list for support of Section activities. List members receive meeting notices and other appropriate announcements. The list is easily administered via the web. You can subscribe, unsubscribe, and change your list options —yourself—  on the list Info Page, or view past list messages kept the list Archive.

And now there's another list that may be of interest — AtlTech — created for those in the Atlanta area interested in broadcast, television and motion picture engineering. It is a "place" online where SMPTE members interested in the SBE can learn of what they're doing, and where SBE members can learn of SMPTE activities, etc. You can subscribe, unsubscribe, and change your list options —yourself—  on the list Info Page, or view past list message kept in the list Archive.
