Off-Line Recordings

Because of the large amount of computer memory required to store audio/video recordings, and the limited amount of hard disk space available on the FCC web server, we periodically move older audio/video recordings of FCC events to off-line storage to conserve space on the FCC web server. The names of these events and links to related materials are listed below. If you would like to play the audio/video files from one of the events listed below, please e-mail your specific request to webmaster@fcc.gov, and we will provide you with a temporary link that you can use to access the selected media file.
