How much do board operator jobs pay per hour?
What are board operators?
What are the typical challenges faced by a Board Operator during live broadcasts?
What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Board Operator, and why are they important?
What is the difference between Board Operator vs Radio Technician?
| Aspect | Board Operator | Radio Technician |
|---|---|---|
| Required Credentials | High school diploma; some roles may require technical training | Technical certifications or associate degree often preferred |
| Work Environment | Broadcast studios, control rooms | Broadcast stations, maintenance facilities |
| Industry Usage | Radio and TV stations, live event broadcasting | Radio stations, broadcast engineering |
| Primary Responsibilities | Operating audio/video equipment during broadcasts | Maintaining and repairing broadcast equipment |
While both roles work within the broadcasting industry, a Board Operator primarily manages live broadcasts and operates control room equipment, whereas a Radio Technician focuses on maintaining and repairing broadcast hardware. Understanding these differences helps clarify career paths and job expectations in the broadcasting field.
What Does a Board Operator Do?
A board operator controls a switchboard, the light, and/or sound systems for a radio station, television station, or a theater production. As the radio board operator in the radio industry, your duties and responsibilities are to control the sound mixing board to ensure that the broadcast has the proper levels, catches the right sound, and provides high-quality audio for the broadcast. Board operators typically work at larger radio stations. At smaller stations, the host of a program may operate the board.

iHeartRadio is the #1 streaming radio digital service in America;
Our social media footprint is 7 times larger than the next largest audio service; and

As a result, we're able to combine our strong leadership position in audience reach, usage and ad tech with powerful tools and insights for our sales organizations to help them build success for their clients at a more efficient cost than any other option.
