At
November 6th 2012 we have visited Progroup Radio station. There are
two programs in the Progroup that is Pronews 90 FM and Warna FM 91.6. We are received
directly by the CEO, Aim Zein, he is the owner of Progroup Radio station.
There were some
activity that we did at that Radio. The first is the explanation from Mr.
Yalmiadi. He is the lecturer of English Department of State Polytechnic of
Padang. In the opening Mr. Yalmiadi explained about the purpose and the objective
of our visiting to the Progroup Radio station. In thaat occation Mr. Yalmiadi
also told that English Department of State Polytechnic of Padang is not only

students with skill both radio and television broadcasting.
Then,

Mr. Sentot told, we must find out the work system of broadcast from Pronews FM
and Warna FM. Although, Pronews FM and Warna FM are in one station but they
have a different format.
The
next event was the explanation from Mr. Aim Zein. He told that, progroup is a
radio which is under Private Broadcasters (LPS). Mr Aim also explained there
are so many institutions of the radio. For example, the Public Broadcasters
(LPP) that is RRI and Community Broadcasters (LPK) like PMI Radio.
Mr
Aim also explained each of these broadcasters have a different way of thinking.
Like LPS, LPS or private Broadcasters, have a method or a way of broadcasting
more oriented to commercial. In their programs they are do not restrained or
monotonous. Unlike the LPP or LPK. LPP is for public broadcasters/for the
societies. They have to consider what it is should announce and does not to
announce. Because we must look the societies condition first. It is different
from LPK which has orientation of their work more to the social.
Well,

the special quality and the advantages of each of these radio stations.
Although,
they are on the one station, Pronews FM and Warna FM have different format. Are
