AIROS Native Radio Network

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The AIROS Native Radio Network is a radio service for Native Americans in the United States, providing authentic Native American music, news, entertainment, interviews and discussions of the current issues that relate to the American Indian population. AIROS is a service of Native American Public Telecommunications, a non-profit organization that supports public media for Native Americans.

Originating from Lincoln, Nebraska, AIROS was founded in 1992. It serves an international distributor of Native American programming through the Public Radio Satellite System. AIROS provides a round-the-clock live internet stream, and can also be heard on 33 Native American stations across the country.

In 2006, AIROS, an acronym for "American Indian Radio on Satellite", had changed their name to the AIROS Native Radio Network for branding purposes, as some AIROS programs can be heard on satellite radio services, such as Sirius and XM.
