“The organization's mission is to foster and promote the development of the art of radio broadcasting and to encourage customs and practices which will be in the best interest of the public and the radio broadcasting industry. The indiana broadcasters association has long maintained a noncommercial sustaining announcement program (the ncsa program)through which member and nonmember radio and television stations in the state voluntarily donate airtime which the association, under the program, makes available to governmental and not-for-profit entities and organizations to achieve state-wide coverage of their activities, events, and programs which benefit the public at large. To participate in the ncsa program, these entities and organizations pay the association customarily a fraction of what it would cost these entities and organizations to purchase the airtime from individual stations throughout the state at normal commercial rates. The monies received by the association are used by the association solely for its tax-exempt purposes, such as conducting seminars for stations so that they can better serve the public interest. Importantly, the ncsa program serves to strengthen the relationships between the broadcast industry and governmental and not-for-profit entities and organizations.”

“Volunteers help with ideas for the spectrum awards, scholarship committee, the selection process of students, and the annual hall of fame selection of outstanding broadcasters.”
