ANSI ASC C63® Recognizes
Member Contributions

At the Telecommunications Certification Body Council (TCBC) meeting in Baltimore the week of April 26, 2010, there was an opportunity to present the ANSI ASC C63® membership certificate to the TCBC. This organization provides significant contribution via its primary representative on C63® – Art Wall, a consultant with his own company, Radio Regulatory Consultants. At a break in the TCBC meeting, the Vice Chairman of C63® – Dan Hoolihan of Hoolihan EMC Consulting – presented the certificate to the secretary of the TCBC. See the photo at right for the short ceremony.
     ANSI ASC C63® handed out similar certificates to its members at its meeting on 22 April 2010 in Piscataway, New Jersey, in conjunction with its meeting series held at IEEE headquarters.
