Radio Technology, Regional Planning Identifiers- NAEB, *National Association Of EducationalBroadcasters A National Association of EducationalBroadcasters (NAEB) seminarreviewed the development of regional live educationalnetworking and the prospectof a national network to broadcast programs of educational,cultural, and informationalinterest. Of the 137 operating NAEB radio stations,contributing to the insufficient news communication resources of the nation,73 responded to a questionnaire onlive networking and 67 expressed degreesof interestinparticipation. A sample broadcasting schedule was based on the assumptionsof an eight hour broadcast day, a general listening audience, andlive transmission. Some ofthe advantages of such a network, programed on a mutualbasis with plans for a modifiedround-robin service, would be improvededucational programing, widespreadavailability, and reduction of station operating costs. Using13 NAEB stations as a round-robinbasic network, the remaining 39 could be fed on a one-wayline at a minimum wireline cost of $8569 per month; the equivalent costfor the complete network wouldbe $17,585. As the national network develops throughinterconnection of regionalnetworks and additionof long-haultelephonecircuits,anationalheadquartersshould be established.

Seminar Chairman:Harold E. Hill, NAEBadministrative vice president. conclusions of the seminar 1. The ultimate goal is a national live radio networkfor educational stations, providing service to the people of the entire country. 2. With that in mind, the NAEB should continue to work NOWtoward establishing regional and state networks. 3. The main values of such a network are: a. To distribute program materials of atimely naturenews, commentary, and analysis which are not now readily available to American audiences. b. The psychological factor of national live broadcasts versus delayedbroadcasts will stimulate participation by faculty and staff of member institutions, and byother authorities. c. To serve as a coordinating anddistributing agency for the cultural and intellectual resources of the nation. 4. A permanent committee should be appointed to study and work towardestablishment of the live network.Membership on the committee should consist of a representative from each NAEB region, plus members of the ad hoc committee which planned theseminar. 5. The NAEB should seek funds for the study of legal and engineering problemsrelated to various types of interconnection in radio broadcasting. 6. At this time it is impossible to establish accurate estimates of staff and budgetaryneeds of a national network headquarters.Seminar estimates of personnel requirements ranged from six to over thirty. Budget estimates varied from $60,000 to $250,000 per year. 7. The NAEB should seek funds to hold regional meetings throughout the U.S. inorder to bring together representatives of all existing or potential network stations.Such meet- ings will serve to stimulate development of the various regional and statenetworks which ultimately can be interconnected to form a true nationwide educational radioservice. 8. Nonbroadcast uses of a live network would help in financing thenetwork.These uses may be most important in the stimulation of networkdevelopment by administrators. 9. Network service should span an eight-hour period or more, which will include service for daytime and nighttime programing in most U.S. time zones. 10. A tape program service with air express or other fast handling and deliverycapabilities should be established to supplement the present NAEB network service to interconnect the various state or regional networks during the development stages of thenational net- work.This tape service may be continued along with the live network to transmit high fidelity music program features. 11. Regional network headquarters should be set up at a central city in eachregion.As the national network develops through interconnection of regional networks, a national network headquarters should be established at a location which will best serve theneeds of the network. contents page Keynote Address - TheNeed for a New CommunicationsSystem 1 Hartford N.

Most analyses of public radio listening examine the performance of individual stations within this large mix, the contributions of specific national programs, or aggregate numbers for the system as a whole. This report takes a different approach. Through an extensive, multi-year study of 228 stations that generate about 80% of public radio’s audience, we review patterns of listening to groups of stations categorized by the formats that they present. We find that stations that pursue different format strategies – news, classical, jazz, AAA, and the principal combinations of these – have experienced significantly different patterns of audience growth in recent years and important differences in key audience behaviors such as loyalty and time spent listening. This quantitative study complements qualitative research that the Station Resource Group, in partnership with Public Radio Program Directors, and others have pursued on the values and benefits listeners perceive in different formats and format combinations. Key findings of The Public Radio Format Study include: • In a time of relentless news cycles and a near abandonment of news by many commercial stations, public radio’s news and information stations have seen a 55% increase in their average audience from Spring 1999 to Fall 2004.
