Broadcast Engineering announces IBC2009 Pick Hits Award winners

Broadcast Engineering has announced the winners of its Pick Hits Awards for IBC2009.

The prestigious Pick Hits Awards, which have honored companies and their technology for more than 25 years, are selected by a panel of independent judges who tour the convention floor looking for innovative products and technology. The judges then meet to make their selections based on several criteria, including the technical and financial improvements the product can bring to a facility’s operation. Broadcast Engineering’s editors and publishers have no vote in the selection process, ensuring the winners truly represent outstanding achievement in the eyes of a group of people who are representative of those making TV happen.

Congratulations to the following manufacturers for their creative technology solutions!
