Briscoe said that passage of the bill could lead to increased interference problems from transolators to cable systems and noted that it could raise some serious copyright questions because non-profit translators are exempt from copyright payment. Richard Wiley, FCC Chairman also testified as well as National Translator Association representative Lee Knauer |
