Abstract: The North American Broadcasters Association’s Technical Committee (NABA-TC) plays a key role in ensuring that the technical needs and goals of our members are addressed in the complex, rapidly changing technical environment of broadcasting and content distribution. NABA’s TC works to ensure that North American broadcasting interests are represented well in key international forums. A delegation representing NABA positions participates in Working Group meetings and World Radio communication Conferences (WRCs) of the International Telecommunication Union’s Radiocommunication Sector (ITU-R), the U.N. agency with legal authority over the world radio spectrum allocations and recommendations.
