Description

Imperial FM, or IFM, is a radio station started a long time ago by enlisted men who are now officers wanting to have fun in their spare time. It played various types of music and any Imperial was able to DJ freely.

History

Imperial FM was started by Imperial Colonial Police members Staff Sergeant Edward Carter and Corporal Timothy McVale. They created the radio to give the other enlisted imperials something to enjoy and listen to on their off time. They held many shows where the listeners would request songs and they would play it.

After a while, Jathrin Thoyan wanted to get involved. At the time Jathrin was a reporter for the Imperial News Service. So Edward and Timothy gave him his own show on the radio to read different news stories that he wrote to the Imperial listeners.

Eventually Timothy and Edward were given the opportunity by their CO (and Timothy's adoptive big brother), Second Lieutenant Greg Black-Granger, to go with him to the Chiss Ascendancy. They both accepted the offer, and took Imperial FM with them. They renamed it to Chiss FM and still allowed Jathrin to continue his news show. However, one condition would be that the pro-Imperial propaganda be toned down slightly.

When Isoldor Storm was killed, Edward and Timothy decided to disband the radio.

Some time later, Jathrin decided to revive Imperial Radio.[when?] He introduced a few new innovations, and on orders from the Ministry of Operations he integrated the IFM staff into the Imperial News Bureau.

Today we see the same thing happen: IFM comes back, and all IFM staff join the Imperial Information Service

Re-nationalization

After declining support IFM went into a hiatus for many years until Grand Vizier Taidan re-integrated it into the Imperial Information Service on Year 12 Day 234.

Though IFM faces many obstacles in the future, it remains an icon of Imperial culture from the old days: an icon of a different time.

Job Opportunities

Anyone within the Galactic Empire could DJ without being hired to Imperial FM at the time. Though if you wished to work for IFM as a DJ, we would need to listen to a live DJ session or a sample or recording of your work. At all times, COMPNOR policies needed to be followed to apply for part-time jobs. IFM DJs were paid based on each 60-minute session they did, with competitive bonuses.
