The program "Radio Panorama" for lovers of long-range radio reception.

It has already been broadcasting on the Internet for two years, and it will start broadcasting from Kyrgyz Bishkek, as well as Krasnodar Territory. According to the format, the station competes with other projects of the same Gazprom-Media - NRJ and Like FM, market participants say. In 2019, TNT Music Radio will begin to enter the FM band in different cities of Russia, Vladimir Borisov, the station's general producer, told Kommersant. From the Roskomnadzor registry, it follows that the media called TNT Music Radio - Region 88.2 FM has already registered the TNT channel's media partner in the Krasnodar Territory - Media Region. "We will start in the Krasnodar region, where the launch of broadcasting on the FM frequency is scheduled for April. And during this year we plan to include "TNT Music Radio" on FM frequencies in a number of cities in Russia, "confirmed Mr. Borisov. According to him, the station is going to both receive frequencies in competitions and attract regional partners. In addition, in December 2018, TNT Music Radio has already become available in the FM band in the Kyrgyz capital Bishkek, he specified. Station "TNT Music Radio" broadcasts on the Internet since October 2016, it started a few months after the start of the channel "TNT Music" and was first positioned as its radio version, and later began to be filled separately. 70% of the air is taken by foreign music, 20% is Russian, radio also broadcasts showbiz and other programs. Now TNT Music Radio does not sell direct advertising, but only special projects and sometimes support for concerts, but interested in further monetization, says Vladimir Borisov. The channel and radio station under the TNT Music brand is operated by TNT Musical LLC. 50% of this company belongs to Alexander Karmanov's Solaris Promo Production, 49% to TNT channel structures and 1% to TNT Music general producer Eleonora Mishustina. Alexander Karmanov is a long-time partner of Gazprom Media: he has been a minority shareholder of Comedy Club Production for several years, and since 2014, Solaris Promo Production has been producing one of the key projects of TNT Dom-2. "TNT Music" Mr. Karmanov first acquired from the former director of TNT Igor Mishin (at that time the channel was called A-One and broadcast hip-hop), and then resold 49% to TNT structures. TNT Music Radio can become a direct competitor to Like FM, NRJ (included in Gazprom Media) and Hit FM (Russian Media Group), to which this station is closest in format, the head of a Moscow radio station believes. Two employees familiar with the project note that the sub-holding of GPM Radio, the manager of the pool of radio stations Gazprom- Media (Avtoradio, Humor FM, Ekho Moskvy, etc.), is not related to TNT Music Radio ", which is being developed by Solaris Promo Production. Gazprom-Media already has experience in creating radio stations based on television brands: in 2012, Comedy Radio was launched, for which content is produced by TNT and Comedy Club Production. The development of this format was given to the regional frequencies of another radio holding - Romantika. The creators of TNT Music Radio were looking for opportunities to enter the FM band in Moscow, a source in the radio market knows. According to him, the partnership, in particular, was offered to the radio station "Megapolis FM", but the parties did not agree on its terms. The creator of the Internet radio stations "Hip FM" and "Russian hit" (in 2016 sold to Mikhail Gutseriev) Alexey Anisakharov doubts that TNT Music Radio will eventually appear in Moscow: "The TNT Brand is strong, but Gazprom-Media has its own line of radio formats, including similar ones. " But it is easier to get to the regions, and there such a format may well be successful, he believes. https://www.kommersant.ru/doc/3854082 (https://vk.com/vcfm2014) * Development of the broadcasting network of radio stations Krutoy Media for 2018 --------------------------------------------- In 2018, Krutoy Media's radio stations turned on another 55 cities.

Nur Russland und Indien haben noch solche Sender fuer U-Boot Kommunikation die US-Marine soll ihren Sender Sanguine 2004 geschlossen haben. Vermutlich gibt es noch aus dem Kalten Krieg nur noch einen aktiven ELFSender, der extrem niedrige Frequenz nutzt, naemlich ZEVS der russischen Marine auf der Kola-Halbinsel bei Murmansk, der mit 82 Hertz arbeitet und elektromagnetische Signale mit einer Wellenlaenge von 3700 km sendet. Damit laesst sich mit U-Booten bis zu einer Tiefe von 50 Metern kommunizie￾ren, wenn auch mit einer sehr geringen Bandbreite und nur einseitig vom ELF-Sender zum U-Boot. Gesendet wird mit einem Bodendipol als Antenne, der aus zwei parallelen Antennen mit jeweils einer Laenge von 60 km besteht. Only Russia and India still have such transmitters for submarine communication, the US Navy is said to have closed its transmitter Sanguine 2004. Presumably, there is only one active ELF transmitter from the Cold War that uses extremely low frequency, namely ZEVS of the Russian Navy on the Kola Peninsula near Murmansk, which operates at 82 hertz and transmits electromagnetic signals with a wavelength of 3700 km, This allows you to communicate with submarines to a depth of 50 meters, albeit with a very low bandwidth and only one-sided from the ELF transmitter to the submarine. It is sent with a ground dipole antenna, which consists of two \\ antennas, each with a length of 60 km.

Right on the grayline within a couple of minutes. Unfortunately, will unlikely hold up when they're scheduled in English, Russian, and even Ukrainian. Wow, even within a few minutes the signal deteriorated from very nice reception to only poor/fair (by 0230). Unusable afterwards. 4010.223, Bishkek, 100 kW/ND, Kyrgyz Radio 1, (Birinchi Radio), Jan 1, 0118 - Aoki reports them in English at this time. Wouldn't that be nice, but perhaps New Year's Day is not the best time to check that. Only non-stop vocals heard, though. Strong enough S5 signal, in the clear, but the audio (speech) was a little low and muffly. Can't tell the language. Thought for a minute they were reading numbers (like an address), but wishful thinking. Not in English, nor Russian. I can only assume it's Kyrgyz. They mentioned 'Radyo' at 0129 (OM), then a female announcer. Again, the same 'Radyo' at the BOH. Listening at 0135, sure sounds German to me. I see that German is listed for them at other times (like 1410 to 1420), so possible. Seemed to follow a speech (boring; remember Soviet times? On and on, presumably in Kyrgyz).

Armenian Art Labo, or his real name, Arthur Egnoyan, conducts a program for relatives of prisoners. With the help of his show, relatives can send messages to their loved ones who are currently behind bars, reports the Associated Press. He was born in an Armenian family in Salt Lake City during the Great Depression. Sister sent him a radio when he was 8 years old. Later he moved to California, served in the navy during the Second World War.
