About IBC Radio Network

IBC Radio Network, a division of IBCS, is an all-talk radio service broadcasting via satellite 24/7, focused on business, news, science and paranormal content. IBCRN believes it is a viable alternative to larger networks that tend to make their affiliates all sound the same, effectively destroying local content. IBCRN seeks to enhance local content, thus increasing the value of its affiliates. Increased value translates into enhanced advertising revenues for IBC as well as affiliate radio stations.
