Progressive community radio since 1979. 106.7FM, PBS Digital, streaming on web and on the PBS app. Progressive Broadcasting Service Cooperative Ltd (PBS) is committed to supporting, nurturing and advocating Melbourne's underrepresented, specialist and diverse music communities. These communities are represented on our programming schedule and represented by the 9,500plus members (aka subscribers..) made up of loyal individuals, musicians, music industry people, businesses and so on. We believe Melbourne's strong and vibrant music scene has much to do with PBS' active involvement in the community. With our new location and our new general manager, 2022 has marked a new chapter for PBS. We have been operating several years now with a functional, but somewhat outofdate strategic plan. PBS will be reexamining this over the next 12 years. While the past few years were marked by distance and separation, PBS hosts continued to carry the torch for local music and music culture; a mainstay of relief amid walltowall news and the stresses of a global pandemic. It has been a joy in the past few months to see staff and reception volunteers slowly return to the station, furnishing the space with the final element to 'Make it Home'. Despite our caution that we d reached member support fatigue after the incredibly generous response fundraising for our new space, our members came through for us yet again for the annual radio festival 'Complete the Connection', setting the station on sure ground for the next year. Back in the building, things have been going well during the defect reporting period. The radio studios have been completed; Studio 5 is not far behind; and an imminent link between PBS and Music Market will enable livetoair gigs in the heart of the arts precinct. We welcomed the first group of broadcast trainees in over two years in August, meaning a slew of fresh new voices will be heard on air this year during summer fills. In the coming year we ll see the relaunch of Studio 5 and the reinvigoration of station events. PBS had reached a milestone in it's history and it shall be exciting to see what the future holds.
