URTeC Live Conference Radio

Enjoy Live Conference Radio sound in all URTeC Technical Sessions. Live Radio eliminates the need for loud speakers and helps cut-out unwanted distractions using FM radio signal. This radio earpiece is required to listen to the closed-circuit live broadcast in all Technical Session rooms. Qualified attendees can pick up their radio near the technical sessions in Exhibit Hall C.

How to use Your Radio

  1. Rotate the dial up to turn on the radio and adjust volume settings.
  2. Use up and down buttons to navigate to desired channels. (E1, E2, E3, etc.)
    - E1 would be for Room 1, indicating the technical session room assigned for that channel.
    - Signage will be placed inside and outside all technical session rooms to indicate which channel.
  3. To change modes (change between Event Channels and FM Radio Stations) press both buttons for three seconds.

If you have any issues or questions please contact URTeC Customer Support at [email protected].
