Public Broadcasting of the Federation of Phinbella (Phineaner: Penyiaran Awam Wilayah Persekutuan Phinbella; Taesongean: 핀벨라연맹 공영방송; RR: Phinbella Yeonmaeng Gongyeong Bangsong) or Publieke Omroep van de Federatie van Phinbella (abbreviated to FPPO; Federatie van Phinbellanse Publieke Omroep; literally 'Federation of Phinbellan Public Broadcasting') is an entity-level public broadcasting organization that operates all public radio and television services spanning throughout the Free area of the Federation entity. This broadcasting organization is among the public broadcasters that exist in Phinbella besides KBS and TDPP, and is headquartered in Negara Awan and previously located in Bandar Baru Fatin. The FPPO has operated two television channels and two radio stations.
History
On February 14, -63BP, the first radio station was launched, known as "TQ-1", with a staff of ten people. Several name changes took place over the next few years, finally becoming known as "Phinbellan Public Radio" in -46BP. In the radio's early beginnings, its broadcast time was initially four hours on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays, then on in -50BP, its airtime was extended to morning hours. The radio station introduced a 7-day-a-week broadcast in -44BP, and divided the broadcast time into three periods during the day; in the morning, lunchtime, and evening. This is partly due to many presenters being part-time freelancers who have to fit their radio appearances around their normal daily work schedules. In -39BP, the evening broadcast time was introduced.
The broadcast time in this radio station is filled with programs produced by different groups of broadcasters based on different ideologies, such as liberal, Umraist, Catholic, Protestant and even socialist and conservative broadcasters. The second radio station launched in -47BP, as well as Radio 3 and 4 launched in -42BP provided space for broadcasters to produce programmes, including the newly established KTR (now FKTR) and RPPRA. Under the pillarisation system in place at the time, each group of listeners was loyal to its pillar broadcasting company. This program is funded by the association members themselves.
A radio license fee was introduced in -37BP; different broadcasting groups have chosen a path and united to cooperate more with each other, and the Phinbellan Radio Union (Kesatuan Radio Rantau Phinbella) has been established to replace and operate the PhPR radio stations, producing joint programs for its radio stations.
In -30BP, the station's mediumwave AM transmitter was moved from the waterfront site at Tama Seryouchi to the top of Bukit Emas in Karaikal district. Although the new transmitter was much more powerful, the mountaintop site proved unsuitable for medium wave transmission and reception in some areas has remained problematic ever since. The Public Affairs Television Foundation (Yayasan Televisyen Hal Ehwal Awam, YTEA) was established in -30BP to operate television service projects. YTEA built several broadcast transmitters around the headquarters. On December 20, -29BP, the first television station in Phinbella was launched with two free-to-air channels.
Services
Radio and television programs are mainly published in four Phinbellan national languages including the Gangwol dialect along with its creole (for its local telenovela slot), Batavian language (relative to Phinbella’s third national language) and Sangunese in its anime slot. The FPPO headquarters is located at Pos Appat, Negara Awan, just a few kilometers from the city center and the KBS Broadcasting Center in Nilam Puri. Several Federation broadcasting organizations were initially airing their programs on two television channels (FPPO1 and FPPO2) and all FPPO's radio stations.
FPPO is divided into two service units, namely FPPO radio service (entity-level public radio service) and FPPO television service (entity-level public television service) and consists of six public service broadcasting associations.
