Radiothon has brought in some much needed donations to the station. Thank you to all of the volunteers<br />
who have been successful in fundraising for the station. We have more than $60,000 in pledges so<br />
far with several programming groups still to hold their Radiothon. A special thank you to the Greek<br />
Group which raised more than $11,000 on their first program on Friday morning hosted by Peter Kotis.<br />
That total continued to skyrocket over the past week totalling $29,425 in pledges at present for the<br />
Greek Group. That is a record for 4EB.<br />
There is still the opportunity to make donations through the website or collect money from people who<br />
haven't already pledged a donation. We will be more than happy to accept donations through to the 11th<br />
of December.<br />
There will be another special event coming up on Saturday the 24th of October with a combined national<br />
broadcast being broadcast on Global Digital from 9am to 9pm. It will be a multicultural broadcast produced<br />
in English which will feature interviews and segments highlighting the achievements of many people<br />
who have migrated to Australia. There will be wonderful selection of music to listen to as well. It is<br />
the first combined broadcast between 4EB (Brisbane), 2000FM (Sydney), 3ZZZ (Melbourne), 5EBI<br />
(Adelaide), 6EBA (Perth) with a 12 hour live broadcast in each city as well as a stream live via the 4EB<br />
website. Each station will contribute more than 2 hours of quality entertainment. Stay tuned as 4EB provides<br />
more details of segments and the specific times they will be aired during the broadcast.<br />

Jason Hagen - 4EB Training Coordinator.<br />
I would like to congratulate the new panel operators who have passed their<br />
exams in the last round of training. The final round of panel training for 2015<br />
will start at the end of October and will finish in the weeks leading up to the<br />
Christmas break. The next Broadcast Induction will be held on Tuesday the<br />
3rd of November, so get your applications in well before this date. Also a<br />
new Wi-Fi system has been set up with a new password, if you need help<br />
with this see any of the staff or check at the office. If you are after a new set<br />
of headphones 4EB has sourced the Sennheiser HD 201’s at a fantastic price<br />
of $40 which is about half the price listed elsewhere.4EB has also received<br />
another shipment of Zoom H1 recorders complete with the accessory pack,<br />
these are priced at $189.00.<br />
Global is also staging a nation-wide broadcast called “We are family” which<br />
will be held this Saturday the 24th of October, this is a first of it’s kind<br />
broadcast with five multicultural stations taking part. Global (Brisbane) will<br />
start the twelve hour broadcast at 9am followed by 3ZZZ (Melbourne) 2000<br />
Languages (Sydney) 6EBA (Perth) and 5EBI (Adelaide) This is a good opportunity<br />
to tune in and listen to what other multicultural broadcasters are doing<br />
in different parts of the country.<br />
As always if you need training with the OB Van, Studio Telephone, Portable<br />
Recorder, Digital operations or anything else, don’t be shy come and see me<br />

WHAT’S BEEN HAPPENING AT 4EB?<br />
4EB attended the 2015 Lavazza Italian Film festival<br />
that was held at the Barracks at Milton.<br />
This year was very well attended by numerous<br />
film lovers, community, business and corporate<br />
identities. The films were all fully catered and<br />
washed down with Italian wine and coffee.<br />

Family” national broadcast which goes to air this<br />

Rudolf Van Wyk<br />
1928—2015<br />
Rudolf Van Wyk was born on the 4th of June 1928<br />
and joined 4EB in May of 1990. Rudy was a Director,<br />
Dutch group committee member, Panel operator<br />
and Broadcaster. Rudolf was a retired farmer who<br />
tended to his flock of goats at his farm at Aratula,<br />
when not broadcasting at 4EB.<br />
Rudy passed away on the 30th of September, he<br />
was 87 years of age.<br />
Our thoughts are with his wife Lenie.
School Holidays in the Greek Program.<br />
How old was your youngest broadcaster?<br />
Well in the Greek Group they start really early, here we have Angelos Chronopoulas Jnr trying his first<br />
set of headsets when he was approx. 3 years old, not sure but I think he could have been the youngest<br />
member of the Greek Group at that time.<br />
Now Angelos Jnr is still involved with the program often assisting his Grandfather<br />
Angelos Snr with the Monday program during School Holidays.<br />
Greek School Language School Teacher George Ofanos accompanies some of his students to 4EB, encouraging<br />
them to make practical use of their language skills. There are other programs that involve the<br />
language schools, so if you are looking at another way for your youth to use their language, why don't<br />
you check out 4EB.<br />
Pictured here we have Secretary of Greek Programming Group Angelos<br />
Chronopoulas Snr with his grandchildren Angelos Jnr and Anna showing off the president’s Shield<br />
that was presented to the Group for their outstanding performance during the year. Also pictured we<br />
have Students from the West End Greek language School with their teacher Mr George Ofanos.
4EB FM SHARING THE WORLD WITH YOU ON 98.1 FM<br />
4EB FM is a not-for-profit community radio station that is formally known as the Ethnic <strong>Broadcasting</strong> Association<br />
of Queensland Limited (EBAQ), Radio 4EB FM was formed by a group of Brisbane residents interested in creating<br />
an ethnic radio station with broadcasting commencing in 1979.<br />
The station has made its mark as one of the most successful ethnic community radio stations in Australia with over<br />
4800 members in more than 50 cultural groups from around the world.<br />
The success of the station is due to a combination of more than 700 volunteers, a small but dedicated team of staff<br />
and state of the art technology to broadcast information, entertainment and education out to listeners.<br />
The Radio 4EB signal range is from Northern NSW and the Gold Coast sweeping up the coast through Brisbane,<br />
Toowoomba and all the way up to Gympie, informing our listeners of the many local events, services and<br />
activities within our communities.<br />
