Radio Presenter:
Larger stations or those that simulcast programming across their infantry pay considerably more this can be as much as £450 per show for a networked programme across multiple stations.
At this time many of the public service broadcasters in the UK are paid a salary and are employed as staff. The BBC for example have a fair salary formula which always is higher than smaller local commercial radio stations. This is because of the experience required by these stations. In these cases a starting programme fee equivalent might be in the region of £100-£200 per programme.
