WASHINGTON, DC – NAB has established a new award to recognize HD Radio programming. The NAB HD Radio Multicast Award will be given to a multicast station that is creating unique, innovative or groundbreaking programming. The award will be presented at the keynote session on Thursday, September 27 during The NAB Radio Show in Charlotte.
"In addition to offering a crystal-clear listening experience, HD Radio provides listeners with an even richer array of formats while expanding a local station's programming opportunities," said NAB Executive Vice President John David.
