Australia's peak body for narrowcast radio
For over 30 years, narrowcast radio has helped Australians connect by empowering diverse voices from all walks of life. ANRA represents the low-power (LPON) and high-power (HPON) open narrowcast services that make it happen.
What ANRA does

Speaks for narrowcast operators with the ACMA and government, including responses to consultations such as the Technical Planning Guidelines remake.
Maintains the Codes of Practice
Develops the Open Narrowcast Radio Codes of Practice for registration with the ACMA under the Broadcasting Services Act 1992.
Supports members

A rich cultural mosaic
Narrowcast licences carry tourist information, horse racing, Indigenous and ethnic content, special events, foreign-language services, local sport, religious content, special-interest music and much more.
