South Dakota Public Broadcasting, or SDPB for short, is a state network of non-commercial educational television and radio stations serving the state of South Dakota. The stations are operated by the South Dakota Bureau of Information and Telecommunication, a state agency which holds the licenses for all of the Public Broadcasting Service and National Public Radio stations licensed in South Dakota except KCSD in Sioux Falls, which is owned by the University of Sioux Falls and managed by the bureau, KRSD, also in Sioux Falls, which is owned and run by Minnesota Public Radio, and KAUR, which is owned by Augustana College and operated by MPR. The studios and offices are located at 500 N. Dakota Avenue in the Allen Neuharth Media Center on the University of South Dakota campus in Vermillion, South Dakota. ==Radio== Educational broadcasting in South Dakota began in 1919 with experimental broadcasts at USD's College of Engineering. USD was granted a full license in 1922, and went on the air that May 29 as WEAJ. It became KUSD in 1925. By 1952, the station settled at 690 AM at 1,000 watts, operating only during daylight hours to protect CBF in Montreal. In 1967, it acquired an FM sister station, KUSD-FM at 89.7. Also in 1967, South Dakota State University in Brookings signed on KESD-FM. The three stations merged in 1982 as South Dakota Public Radio, which in turn merged with the State Board of Directors for Educational Television (now the Bureau of Information and Telecommunication) in 1985. Between 1985 and 1991, five other stations joined the network. One of them was KCSD, which signed on in 1985 as part of a partnership between Sioux Falls College (now the University of Sioux Falls) and the ETV Board in an effort to improve the network's reception in South Dakota's largest city. While the University of Sioux Falls holds the license, it is operated by the state network under a management agreement.〔http://www.dakotapathways.com/10/faq2.htm〕 In 1992, a Chevrolet Suburban went on a joyride through the Vermillion Golf Course, where KUSD-AM's towers were located. The Suburban crashed into one of the AM station's towers and knocked it down. The insurance settlement was not large enough to restore full operations, and KUSD-AM went off the air for good in 1994. South Dakota Public Radio stations in the lineup include: South Dakota Public Radio also rebroadcasts on the following stations: In March 2007, South Dakota Public Radio started broadcasting on HD Radio. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「South Dakota Public Broadcasting」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
