Lipetsk. ----------------------------------------- This morning I discovered that Radio Chanson is broadcasting at 105.6 MHz in Lipetsk. Prior to that, there was Echo of Moscow. The official website shows the start date of broadcasting June 2019 http://radioshanson.ru/city/index (Valery Sheptukhin, Lipetsk, Russia / "deneb-radio-dx" & "open_dx") Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous District -------------------------------------------------- From April 1, another station will begin broadcasting on the territory of our municipality - Radio Sputnik. For the residents of Tazovsky and Gaz-Sale, the FM frequency is 105.0, for Gyda and Antipayuta - 102.6. After a while, Sputnik will be heard in Nakhodka. - Unlike Avtoradio, which has mainly entertainment content, this is more an information resource. During the day, the Sputnik radio will have 8 local airtime frames of 15 minutes each: the first at 7:45 and the final at 18:45, where we will talk about what happened in the area that day. In addition to the news, there will be interviews, expert comments, author projects, ad units and music on our broadcasts. The new project is interesting primarily because it significantly expands our airtime. If on Avtoradio today, local tapping takes about half an hour today, then a total of two hours of broadcasting will be on Sputnik radio a day, "said Irina Kashubara, head of the editorial staff of the radio journal MBU" Tazovsky District Media ". - In addition, this resource will also be able to place announcements and congratulations from our listeners. Recall, another station, Avtoradio, where Taz journalists will continue to air, the residents of Tazovsky listen at a frequency of 101.8.

(https://vk.com/dxing) * Krasnodarsky kray. ------------------------------ The car was driving the Krasnodar roads, tens of kilometers behind. Agonizing wait for the unknown, but so desired. Left Tbilisskuyu. And suddenly the driver says: "Look." In the distance, antennas of the Kuban Radio Center appeared. A peculiar Mecca for those who love and miss the powerful broadcasting. Today, it is the only radio center within the Federal State Unitary Enterprise RTRS, which broadcasts programs in the range of short waves from the territory of Russia. Think about it. ONLY. 10 years ago, there were dozens of them. And today is one. Alas, over the past years, many of the objects of powerful broadcasting have irrevocably gone down in history. I missed the important pages of analog radio, which I regret about now. And I decided to make it. Hurry up to see how Russia's only shortwave transmitter makes broadcasting from Krasnodar Earth. The center occupies a large area. Why are there big, gigantic. LW / MW / SW antenna systems, feeder lines and technical buildings with transmitters, workshops. Megawatt tube giants are the center's pride. The best minds collected them with their own hands, and of course they told me about the transmitters with special warmth. The last one to broadcast in the mid-wave range using the RV-681 transmitter with a power of 1,200 kW at a frequency of 1089 kHz was Vesti fm radio station in 2014. After a break in loading (liquidation of the Voice of Russia), it became a breath of air for the center and its employees. Transmitters are water cooled. Distilled water is supplied through pipes using pumps. On the territory there are pools-coolers of the circulating fluid. The only transmitter was stopped on November 30, 2014, after several months of operation. From this point on, the SV transmitters of Kuban were silent. On the floor is quiet. However, everything is in perfect condition and, if necessary, ready to go. Here are located the 1000 kW shortwave transmitters of the Bob-2 type. Now about shortwave broadcasting. Less powerful HF transmitters are located in a separate building, air cooling. It is here, several times a week, that one of the transmitters comes to life. (PB - 688), for broadcasting the international broadcasting programs of the "Adygea" State TV and Radio Company. Yes, the Adyghe leadership cares about their compatriots in other countries and allocates funds for shortwave broadcasts. Adygea is a unique subject of the Russian Federation, part of another subject - Krasnodar Kray. Today, it is the only customer for powerful broadcasting from the Kuban Radio Center. And this is not an empty sound. It is the programs of the Adygeya State Television and Radio Company that allow the Kuban Radio Center to remain in the number of operating, and not conserved, as in many regions of the country. Today he is so alone. I want to thank the leadership of the Republic of Adygea for the attention to their people and, of course, for the opportunity, albeit at the meager level, to maintain powerful broadcasting in Russia. It is important. Iron is good. But you need to mention people. In the radio center, as in the Krasnodar branch of FSUE RTRS, there are real professionals in their field. And the condition of the Kuban Radio Center is a clear confirmation of this. Let no load, and it seems - it's hopeless. But the equipment is not looted, fully operational and ready to work on demand. Workers know the entire infrastructure to screw, because some have been working here for more than 40 years! And they, like me, hope that the world will still hear the voices of the Kuban tube giants not only in the face of the Adygeya State Television and Radio Company. That the equipment assembled by hand will benefit society and please the eye of its creators. The branch has its own radio club. In general, the question of amateur radio communications in the Krasnodar branch of FSUE RTRS is posed very seriously. There is a field base, equipped with the latest technology. I think many amateurs may envy such a secret. The team participates in competitions, field trips. The number of connections made exceeded the 20,000 QSO barrier. I had a chance to talk with the activists of the club, our conversation lasted more than one hour. After all, radio amateurs will always find topics for conversation. Of course, I asked about the prospects, although I know perfectly well - it's better not to ask such a question here. He is not uncomfortable. The answer to it involuntarily casts sadness. What to do with the centers of powerful broadcasting should be solved at the highest level. For now ... For now, as it is. Standing on the antenna field, he looked at the numerous masts, feeders, technical building. And he closed his eyes for a minute. Imagine that it might perish overnight ... Never. I sincerely believe that this will never happen. At least in my age. That engineering marvel will work for its intended purpose and benefit people. Such centers, like others in our country, cannot be turned into a pile of scrap. After all, it is not only iron, it is the life of dozens of people who have invested their love in these structures. These are the fates and generations of people committed to their work. To demolish is to trample, betray, and destroy non-material wealth - memory. After the excursion, the deputy director of the branch, Vladimir Vasilievich Bezverkhy, knowing that I had a receiver in my bag, suggested setting it to 1593 kHz. I thought I would hear there probably Romanians. But what was my surprise when, at this frequency, with perfect quality, I heard the broadcast "Radio Zvezda". Somehow I came across information on the Internet that a "pirate" station is broadcasting in this region, or rather relays to the "Zvezda". But of course, by the time of the trip I forgot about it. Who broadcasts is not known. But I understand that the broadcast is to the liking of the residents of the village of October. Transmitter power is small, after leaving the village, the possibility of receiving disappeared. Probably, while the big "dad" is on vacation, his "child" continues the work of the "father". It may not be very legal, but in my opinion it's great! I express my deep gratitude to those who helped me to success. Director of the branch of RTRS "Krasnodar KRTPTS" Alexander Ilyich Zolotov Deputy Branch Director Vladimir Vasilievich Bezverkhy Professionals - radio amateurs branch RTRS "Krasnodar KRTPTS" Viktor Nikolaevich Efimtsov RU6AX Vasily Yurievich Samay RA6AU as well as employees of the Kuban Radio Center, who helped conduct a tour of the facility. All this would not have taken place on the vine without the help of my faithful fellow hobby Mikhail Timofeev. If you are told that nothing is broadcast on HF in Russia, do not believe it. Is broadcasting. I was convinced personally. With all respect, Andrew. 73! # RTRS #Radio # Kuban Photo: https://vk.com/club171176221?w=wall-171176221_4501 (Andrey Molokov, St. Petersburg, Russia / https://vk.com/club171176221) * In Russian. The film "Island Nameless" (1946) ----------------------------------------------- The Nazis subjected the island's nameless radio station to brutal bombardment and soon they were landing troops on the island. The enemy mercilessly destroys all living things, but the radio station continues to work, since the meteorologist Asya managed to install a spare radio on an abandoned schooner. Meanwhile, a Soviet warship, finding a German submarine, starts a battle. The Germans torpedo the ship, and the Soviet sailors find themselves on the high seas. To save those drowning, a seaplane takes off and makes a safe landing on the splinter ice floe of the raging sea. A love affair is woven into the plot of the film: the captain of the sunken ship and the pilot who saved him fall in love with Asya ... https://vk.com/club171176221?z=video-163779953_456239746%2F3c961f945a3a1768a3%2Fpl_wall_-171176221 (https://vk.com/club171176221) * Soviet receivers. -------------------------------- Radio USSR.

Dear friends! You have in your hands - an attempt to collect together the materials preserved in history about this terrible tragedy - the strongest earthquake in Armenia, which occurred on December 7, 1988. This book is built in the form of chronology - both general earthquake data and reflecting the main points of the role of shortwave in works - both on radio communications during rescue operations and on providing radio communications for earthquake zones with many regions of the country. Also included are the memories of the direct participants in these works and about the corresponding awards they received. Found the place and the publication of scans from some of the "Logs" of shortwave coordinators and publications in the media of those years, as well as the history of the creation of the USSR PAC and subsequent stories of the creation of the Russian PAC and Ukraine. For quite natural reasons, the stated material cannot claim the right of absolute historical truth, but the author conscientiously processed the materials available to him. Successfully the book is done or not - to judge you! I would be grateful for your feedback and critical comments.

Radio Center Moscow, a pioneer of Religious broadcasting in Russia, has been granted a license for operating a powerful AM transmitter in Riga, Latvia to deliver Christian programming in RUSSIAN language into every RUSSIAN community in Eastern Europe, including Russia proper--during a time when the Russian Government has restricted the rights of many Christian groups. Due to growing restrictions and governmental interference, Radio Center is moving from Moscow to Riga while keeping our radio studio in Moscow. Our NEW frequency on AM dial is 1602 kHz. In February 2019 Russian lawmakers backed a bill aimed at isolating the country's Internet from the rest of the world to secure it in the event of a cyber attack or other threat. The creation of this "red button" that gives the State more ways of disconnecting the country from the global network could further isolate Russians from the rest of the world.

Until May 2019, "Ukrainian Radio" will continue to broadcast on medium waves at a frequency of 549 kHz with a transmitter in the village of Luch (Nikolaev region), from where the occupied Crimea is covered by broadcasting. About this site "Detector Media" said the member of the Board of the National Public TV and Radio Company of Ukraine (NSTU) Nikolay Chernotitsky. "Until May of this year, the NSTU committed itself to continue to broadcast on medium waves at a frequency of 549 kHz with a transmitter. The beam performs it. However, the operation of this particular transmitter is incredibly energy-consuming, for which it is not effective. The transmitter itself is from Soviet times, it very old, tube-based, therefore it requires replacement by the operator," he explained. Mr. Chernotitsky noted that the operation of the transmitter in the Beam costs the company more than 16 million UAH. for a year. "For understanding, transmitter operation in seconds. A beam for broadcasting on medium waves costs the company more than 16 million hryvnas per year, which is about 30% of the total amount for broadcasting all the Radio Public Channels," said the board member of NSTU. According to him, NSTU appealed to the National Council with a request to replace the transmitter with a more modern one or launch a new frequency in the Kherson region for more efficient broadcasting of "Ukrainian Radio" to the territory of Crimea on medium waves. "Of course, we strive to optimize all irrational expenses, just as we strive to switch to more modern broadcasting technologies. Actually, with this question we repeatedly appeal to the National Council and operator regarding the replacement of this transmitter with a modern one or launch of a new frequency in the Kherson region for more of effective broadcasting RU: Ukrainian radio to the territory of the Crimea on medium waves, as was done at Chasovoy Yar for broadcasting to the territory of Donbass ", said Nikolai Chernotitsky. NSTU also plans to receive FM frequencies for the Kultura and Luch radio in Kiev. "We plan to increase the coverage of the broadcasting territory RU: Radio Culture and RU: Radio Ray is in FM, so now we are looking forward to the contest on April 4, where we want to receive frequencies for these radio channels in Kiev. After this contest, we will take part in all other contests, that the National Council on Television and Radio Broadcasting in the regional centers will announce for the development of the networks of the second and third radio channels of the Public, "said a member of the NSTU board. Recall, on March 21, National Council member Oleg Chernysh boycotted meetings of the National Council on Television and Radio Broadcasting, because colleagues refused to hold a competition for frequencies for Public Radio. At the previous meeting, on March 14, the majority of the National Council members did not support the proposal of Mr. Chernysh to announce a contest for 14 FM frequencies in regional centers for the development of the network of the second channel of the Public Radio "Luch". National Council Chairman Yuri Artemenko said that "a few days ago NSTU refused to broadcast medium wave broadcasting." A member of the National Council, Sergey Kostinsky, added that the NSTU refuses to speak, because it has a difficult financial situation Source: Public. Media Detector Portal.

On April 11, 1994, the call signs of the first Saratov non- state radio station with the invigorating name "Tonic Radio" rang out on the air. Later everyone knew that the drink had nothing to do with it, but in 1994 this name sounded very fresh and youthful. Few of the first listeners probably remember the names of the programs that were broadcast at the time, or the names of the hosts. But then they were practically celestials, with whom, however, it was possible to communicate, simply by dialing the number of the studio. Thanks to everyone who created, who lived it, who changed our perception of the word "radio"! P.S.

The goal of this step is to provide listeners with the opportunity to receive radio programs in better quality, as well as to form a more stable position for radio in the face of growing competition from digital media and online platforms. A year and a few months after the Norwegian radio transition was completed, the authors of the report prepared by the WorldDAB consortium for the Radio Days in Europe conference held in Lausanne explore how the transition to the figure affected the overall picture of listening to radio programs in Norway. Key findings of the authors of the study: • Total radio listening volumes as of 2019 are similar to those noted in 2016. • Today's daily radio coverage is 67% of the country's population - with 68% in 2016. • The listener stays longer in 2019 with radio - an average of 146 minutes per day, with 127 minutes in 2016. • 86% of radio listeners listen to DAB + digital radio programs, in 2016 there were 55%. One of the main arguments of supporters of the transition to the figure was the possibility of increasing the variety of choice of radio programs available on the country's air. The introduction of DAB + broadcasting has increased the number of nationwide radio stations available throughout Norway from five to 32, greatly expanding the choice for all demographic groups. New radio stations have gained immense popularity among listeners, and now the share of their listening amounts to 36% of the total listening volumes of radio programs. Also very popular among Norwegian listeners were seasonal and "pop-up" radio stations, timed to coincide with certain events. During the Winter Olympics and the FIFA World Cup, the listening share of NRK Sport radio station grew on some days from the usual 1-2% to 20%, which made it the third most popular station in the country and attracted listeners' attention to such "pop-up" stations. Significantly increased the penetration of receivers compatible with the DAB + standard - and, in particular, the number of cars equipped with such radios: today almost all new cars (98%) sold in Norway are equipped with a DAB + receiver. According to experts, in three or four years, 80% of all cars on the roads of Norway will have a DAB + receiver in the cabin. "The most important event in Norway last year was the increase in the volume of listening to the radio after the transition to the figure," said Osk Jorgen Torvmark, CEO of Norsk Radio and WorldDAB board member. "The numbers that characterize listening to the radio are now at about the same level as before turning off analog FM, and, completing the transition to the figure, the Norwegian radio industry focused on the issues of better controlling the remaining methods of distributing radio programs and user data."
