The Station Resource Group is open to any public radio broadcaster and stations may join at any time. SRG is a nonprofit membership organization. Members are entities licensed by the Federal Communications Commission to operate noncommercial, educational radio stations. These include universities and colleges, independent nonprofit broadcasters, and state agencies. What it Costs Station Resource Group dues are calculated on a sliding scale based on each member's revenue, plus a fixed sum paid by every member. Current members pay amounts that range from $3,500 to $45,900. The average is $8,900. The revenue on which dues are based is a combination of the nonfederal support stations report to the Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB) plus the annual grants that CPB provides. Dues are based on such revenues for all public radio stations operated by the licensee. SRG excludes from dues calculations capital funds that exceed ten percent of a member's non-capital revenue. The current formula for annual dues is: $2,000 + 0.0025 x (revenue to $3 million) + 0.0020 x (revenue from $3 million to $6 million) + 0.0010 x (revenue over $6 million) For further information on joining SRG and the benefits of membership, please contact Terry Clifford or Tom Thomas at (301)270-2617.
