MAINfm encourages programming that reflects our community interests. We aim to encourage direct participation in programming by community members including individuals and interest groups.

MAINfm seeks applicants with innovative ideas for programs that are described in our Program and Music Policies. These are available at:  http://mainfm.net/

The Program Committee will accept proposals at any time and allocates air time according to availability of suitable time slots on the program grid. It will review the information you provide as the first step. Preference will be given to paid up members of MAINfm. (Information about becoming a member can be found here: http://mainfm.net/membership/)

Please answer the questions in the below form with as much detail as possible to give the committee a full picture of what your show would sound like. If your show goes to air this form will be filed at the station for reference.

Audience Identification & Targeting
Programs should target our audience, which includes people committed to:

1. Local news and current affairs
2. Community events and special days
3. History
4. Lifestyle – food, gardening etc.
5. Environmental action and conservation
6. Education innovation, showcasing, and reform
7. Youth oriented and youth conducted programs

Programme Proposal

To propose a show for MAINfm, please submit a proposal using the form below.
  • Please provide contact details for someone to contact in the event of an emergency, including name, phone number and email address.
  • Please describe the type, content, name, and format of your show. Please specify your target audience.
  • How many people will be involved in your show? (i.e., Who would host the show? Will it be guest-dependent?)
  • Generally MAINfm has one and two hour programs that are aired weekly. However, we are open to suggestions including the production of short inserts for existing programs, provided you have the agreement of the presenter of an existing program. How often would you like for your program to air – weekly, monthly or at some other interval? How long will your program or insert run? Longer shows should be broken down into smaller segments for explanation.
  • Why is this show important for the community? What motivates you to want to do this show?
  • What resources do you have at your disposal to produce your show (people, equipment, content, contacts, etc.)?
  • Are there any partners or supporters in the community that your program would attract to provide content support and sponsorship for your proposed show?
  • What experience/expertise do you have? Please include any experience with broadcasting, as well as expertise that relates to your proposed content.
  • If there is not an opening for your show at this time, would you still be interested in volunteering at MAINfm in another capacity? Would you be interested in collaborating with others on a similar idea? If you have other specific interests, please include. NB: MAINfm ask that all presenters volunteer 6 hours of their time over a year to help with various tasks. This helps to keep our station going - and is also a lot of fun!
