    Radio programming will commence on Saturday, April 15 with the NAB Small and Medium Market Radio Forum, powered by Marketron and hosted by NAB’s Small and Medium Market Radio Committee. The forum will consist of business insights, topic briefings, presentations, roundtables and a closing reception.
