Welcome to the North Dakota Broadcasters (NDBA) website. NDBA is a non-profit trade association chartered by the state of North Dakota to promote cooperation and understanding among broadcasters, both radio and television, as well as among businesses and other organizations associated with the broadcast industry.

NDBA fosters and promotes the development of the art of broadcasting and encourages and promotes customs and practices which are in the best interest of the public and the broadcast industry. NDBA protects its members in every lawful and proper manner and acts as the contact with other broadcast associates across the nation.

NDBA's FCC Alternative Broadcast Inspection Program is designed to expose potential problems, educate station personnel and ensure compliance with FCC regulations. Once notified that a station has completed the program, the FCC agrees not to conduct random inspections for three years, unless responding to specific complaints, safety or tower issues.  The 2012 NDBA FCC Inspection will begin in May.  All NDBA stations will be contacted as to their current certification.
