A quick note for our members: Beginning today through October 12, you might see brief pixelation or signal loss on select channels. This is due to the annual Fall Solar Outage, a natural event that happens when the sun lines up directly behind our satellites.

Disruptions are short (usually 5–15 minutes) and only affect certain channels on certain days. Everything resolves on its own — no troubleshooting needed on your part.

In the late 1940s, it became evident that getting telephone service to rural North Dakota was going to be a challenge and that providing the service would lie in the hands of farmers, ranchers, and small-town residents. People like George and Frances Jackson, who had never had telephone service, became a major driving force behind this. So, in December of 1950, Jackson spoke with a group of county extension agents and suggested that the farmers of Burleigh, Emmons, and Kidder Counties form a rural telephone company. The first attempt of forming such a company was made in August of 1951. Just a year later, BEK Communications Cooperative began.
