Specialists replace analogue broadcasting transmitters that broadcast in ultrashort waves at broadcast stations that operate in the FM band (87.5-108 MHz). Unlike the outgoing VHF band, the FM band allows listeners to more confidently receive their favorite Radio Russii programs not only at home, at work, in a summer residence or at a picnic, but also while on the move, for example, in a car. To date, most of the work in the settlements completed. At the time of installation and debugging of equipment, there may be interruptions in broadcasting. Next, we publish information about the broadcast of "Radio Russii" in the settlements where the transmitters are replaced. 1 Aleksandrovsk-Sakhalinsky (MO) -102.2 2 Boshnyakovo (Uglegorsky MO) - 101.4 3 Val (Nogliksky MO) - 100.3 4 Vostochnoet (Makarov MO) - 100.6 5 Golovnino (South Kuril MO) - 102.8 6 Gornozavodsk (Nevelsky MO) - 106.1 7 Krabozavodskoe (South Kuril MO) - 102.6 8 Lesogorsk (Uglegorsky MO) - 102.7 9 Makarov (Makarovsky MO) - 102.2 10 Malokurilskoye (South Kuril MO) - 103.1 11 Mgachi (Aleksandrovsk-Sakhalin MO) - 103.9 12 Novikovo (Korsakov MO) - 102.4 13 Nogliki (Nogliki MO) - 88.0 14 Nysh (Nogliki MO) - 102.0 15 Ozersky (Korsakov MO) - 107.2 16 Okha (Ohinsky MO) - 102.9 17 Okhotsk (Korsakov MO) - 106.2 18 Poronaysk (Poronaysky MO) - 103.2 19 Pravda (Kholmsky MO) - 101.8 20 Pyatirechye (Kholmsky MO) - 107.7 21 Severo-Kurilsk (Severo-Kuril MO) - 101.5 22 Smirnykh (Smirnykhovsky MO) - 101.4 23 Tomari (Tomarinsky MO) - 101.9 24 Uglegorsk (Uglegorsky MO) - 107.5 25 Chapayevo (Korsakov MO) - 101.5 26 Chaplanovo (Kholmsky MO) - 103.9 27 Shebunino (Nevelsky MO) - 101.5 28 Yuzhno-Kurilsk (Yuzhno-Kuril MO) - 107.8 29 Yablokovo (Kholmsky MO) - 102.7 30 Yasnomorskoye (Nevelsky MO) - 106.9 https://ok.ru/radiorossakhalin/topic/70344827805717 (https://vk.com/vcfm2014) Tulskaya oblast.

After the suspension of radio broadcasting in the range of long and medium waves since 2002, these antenna mast structures have not been used. Before the start of work on dismantling the huge antennas, the population of the region was warned. All precautionary measures were also taken by involving the district hokimiyat, emergency, internal affairs and fire safety departments, as well as specialists from the ambulance services, electrical and gas supply. Now the territory where huge antennas were installed will be under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Defense. In their place will build a modern military camp. In the last century, broadcasting systems were mainly set to use long and medium waves, as well as partially short waves. A radio station near the village of Solnechny in the Zangiata district of the Tashkent region was at one time adapted for broadcasting just such waves. In the 80s of the last century, a radio communication system was built for the distribution of long waves between two masts with a height of 235 meters. The main reasons for the widespread development of broadcasting in the wave bands (frequency 148.5-408 kHz, wavelength 2020-735 meters) and medium (frequency 526.5-1606.5 kHz, wavelength 570-186 meters) are associated with the use of radio tubes and transistors radio transmitters of the time. It became possible to produce a large number of low-frequency radios operating in these bands. In addition, the radio waves that transmitted powerful broadcasting operating in these bands were spread over relatively large distances along the curved surface of the earth. However, no more than 10-20 radio stations could operate on the long wavelength. The quality of the analog signal was relatively low and with a high influence of the noise level. As a result, long-wave broadcasting worldwide is declining. Including broadcasting in Ukraine, Armenia, Belarus, Georgia, Azerbaijan, Moldova, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan was discontinued. In Uzbekistan, broadcasting in the range of long and medium waves has been suspended since 2002. http://www.mitc.uz/ru/news/786 (radiomaa / "open_dx") - There was a broadcast, and even what!

"It's no secret that the radio network is a unique competitive advantage of Public Radio. Since our regional journalists at NSTU branches broadcast daily the entire spectrum of topics and genres: from political talk shows to sports programs, from music shows to historical radiyoblog - we will not be overly able to reach the audience in the regions in an additional way, thanks to the online listening, "says Dmitry Khorkin, General Producer of Public Radio. Earlier EN: You could listen to the Ukrainian radio of each region on FM waves, on the Facebook social network pages or on the RU: Ukrainian radio website. From now on, regional radio is also available online on the websites of Public Broadcasting channels (https://www.suspilne.media/branches).

BRIGHT MEMORY. MIKHAIL TIMOFEEV, ST. PETERSBURG, RUSSIA. September 20, 1962 - June 26, 2019 [obituary] Information on behalf of Alexander Berezkin passed in one of the closed type mailings for the radioprofi about the death of the famous St. Petersburg DX-er Mikhail Timofeev. He died on Wednesday 26 June as a result of a stroke. No further details at the moment. The information to me and Mauno Ritola was confirmed by Omar Cheyshvili from St. Petersburg, who we visited during the two St. Petersburg conferences of domestic animals, examining the richest home museum of rare radio receivers. Michael died in the hospital, where he was taken to the ambulance. In his group in "Vkontakte" is the date of birth: September 20, 1962 We met many times: and at work with him (St. Petersburg branch of RTRS) and in a different setting. In addition to DX-er, Misha wrote poems, he loved his city very much and character and mindset was a real Petersburg intellectual. Everlasting memory (Vasily Gulyaev, Astrakhan, Russia / "open_dx") [WORLD OF RADIO 1989] - Yes, unfortunately, it is. On Monday, Mishina's wife called me and said that he was taken to the hospital in an ambulance and he is in intensive care. In the morning he left the house and went to work (he went on foot, which lasted an hour and a half; I always kindly envied him, because I couldn't get through so much) and fell. Something like a hypertensive crisis happened, and there was also a stroke in the hospital. I called him on Friday, I thought that he somehow came to his senses, the phone did not answer. I called my wife back and she told me this sad story (Alexander Berezkin, St. Petersburg, Russia) - My condolences to his family. I met him personally only once in EDXC St. Petersburg, but I found him to be a serious-minded, technical and professional broadcasting person. He was my colleague in broadcast monitoring and also his hobbyist DX-reports using the great antennas of St. P station were of very high class. It feels unbelievable and sad, that we can't be in touch with him any more. (Mauno Ritola / "open_dx") - It's sad. I was not acquainted with Mikhail personally, but I spoke in social networks. And he gone far not in respectable age - only 56 years old. Condolences family and friends. (Dmitry Mezin, Kazan, Russia / "open_dx") - Not a good morning at all - Genuinely a pity. At the dawn of my hobby "Exotic DH-news" of Michael was for me like a bible of distant radio reception, and at the same time an example for imitation and daring. True, it always seemed to me that Michael was such a respectable old man, DK-aksakal. As it turned out, he is only 10 years older than me. Sorry and grieve for this untimely loss for the entire DH community .. Eternal memory, earth in peace! Respectfully, (L. / "open_dx") - I saw Michael once in 2006 at the forum in St. Petersburg. Like many, was surprised by his age. Michael's observations have always been extremely interesting. Condolences to relatives and friends ... (Victor Puzanov / "open_dx") - I join in condolences ... It is very disappointing and annoying when people leave for another world at such an early age ... (Igor Yaremenko, Novosibirsk, Russia / "open_dx") - Michael has always been among us. His newsletter "Exotic DX News", which heightened interest in the hobby. On May 14, 1990, in Leningrad, the Leningrad DX-er Circle was officially registered, led by Mikhail Timofeev, and Aleksey Osipov was an assistant, who also went to another world for 61 years of age on January 18, 2013. From December 6 to December 9, 1990, Mikhail was among the organizers of the 1st International rally of lovers of long-distance reception of broadcasting stations. It was then that I first met Mikhail and have since maintained contact with him. I join in condolences. (Anatoly Klepov, Moscow, Russia) - I join in condolences. :( I personally was not familiar with Michael. He also represented him as well as Leonid. By the way, some DXists have an anniversary QSL card of the St. Petersburg Radio Center and a pennant, Mikhail Timofeev sent these confirmations. Thanks to him for the support of radio amateurs and great work in the field of radio. Blessed memory and let the earth be down. (Victor Varzin, Leningradskaya oblast, Russia / "open_dx") - Bright memory! Eternal flight on the air! (Sergey Smolin, Ukraine / "deneb-radio-dx") - Really unexpected news. Michael personally knew. There is his black - white photo for memory. God rest his soul and let him rest in peace. He is still early, but God's will. (Alexander Golovikhin, Tolyatti, Russia / "deneb-radio-dx") - Bright memory! Early left us. May he rest in peace! (Nikolai Loginov, Russia / "deneb-radio-dx") - Join the condolences. Mikhail and I talked a little online on VKontakte, thought to use contact with him in the future .... Communicate with people now, tomorrow may not be ... (Pavel Domnin, Russia / "deneb-radio-dx") - Out of life. Not. Not this way. My hobby colleague, Mikhail Petrovich Timofeev, went to radio broadcasting eternity. A man who sincerely loves his business, worries about him like no other In my life, Michael played a huge role in the formation of me as an amateur long-distance radio. He helped organize excursions to places where radio hammers didn't go. He gave valuable advice, discovered the secrets of radio waves. Mikhail Petrovich - encyclopedia of domestic and foreign broadcasting. In matters of TV numbers, he helped many viewers set up their receiving equipment. A huge loss to our community. His group VK https://vk.com/spbctv will become a kind of monument to Michael. Remember, do not forget 1962-2019 (Andrey Molokov, St. Petersburg) - Bright memory. It is a pity when they leave young. To live and live still. (Vladimir Pivovarov, Ukraine / "deneb-radio-dx") - I join condolences with the passing away of Mikhail Timofeev. I did not know Michael. (Alexander Makukhin, Moscow / "deneb-radio-dx") - Hmm! Sad ... I also saw Michael once, at the St. Petersburg forum ... We then had a pleasant chat. And he was remembered to me first of all as a very benevolent person, ready to share not only knowledge, information, but also everything that he has. Yes, that's exactly what seemed to me then. Well, how enthusiastic he was! Light memory to him! (Vasily Kuznetsov, Moscow / "open_dx") - WHAT A PITY!!! : (( Personally, to meet and talk, unfortunately, with Michael was not possible, although in 2006, the chances were quite. But I had to cancel the trip for a number of reasons to the conference in St. Petersburg. Our contacts were with him by e-mail. and sometimes by phone. I felt it thorough and thorough, very intelligent and a delicate person with profound professionalism in his business (and actually Michael, after all, was a professional television and radio broadcasting). Over time, communicating with him, it also revealed how positive he is. Unfortunately: - was! ..: ((( I remembered the moment when I directly contacted him by phone for advice straight from the store during the selection and purchase of the TV! 2012 year - just the time of transition from DVB-T on DVB-T2. And thanks to his advice, he was not mistaken in choosing a particular model and was not left without current TV standard! .. And it's not all about him! .. Kingdom of Heaven, Michael! Free flight on air! Now for sure: neither - borders, nor - locks, nor: no restrictions! .. And to all of us, here on Earth: 73! And: we will take care of ourselves and loved ones! (Igor Ashikhmin, Primorsky Krai / "open_dx") - I join in condolences. We were acquainted only with Vkontakte, where mutually reposted materials of their groups. Another reason to think about what remains after, at least for me. (Vladimir Emelyanov, Russia / "deneb-radio-dx") (all: Rus-DX June 30 via DXLD) ``thought to use contact with him in the future .... Communicate with people now, tomorrow may not be ...`` The same here. Some time ago I started to think that I should come back to him, after a couple of years without high power AM transmissions at RTRS to chat about while at the same time keeping in touch is even more important than before now. Never took the time to do it... Once he apologized for possibly still being a bit distrustful against foreigners, remarking that it is not easy to get out of one's own skin, in this case the USSR socialization. This from someone who was much more open to chat with foreigners also about sensitive topics than usually seen elsewhere...

Duration: minutes - 5:59 (http://www.rri.ro/ru_ru/pages/home/) * Radio Philadelphia (106.5 FM) popularizes the Russian language. -------------------------------------------------- - Our compatriots, who settled in the United States, have different attitudes to the language of their homeland: some carefully pass it on to children and grandchildren, others are indifferent to it, which is why the work done by Svetlana is so important, the Modern Russian portal tells. "When the program was being prepared for release, we learned that at the same time, 45 years ago, Joseph Brodsky's compilation Part of Speech was published, the radio host quotes the website." Part of speech is not only a morphological category. " Part of the speech "for us, releasing the program, sounds wider: this is a subject for conversation with an interesting interlocutor, and the object of study, and focus, angle, point of view." The main goal of the program is to draw the attention of listeners, divorced from the natural language environment, to the importance of understanding the problem of high-quality Russian speech in its formation, maintenance, preservation. Svetlana emphasizes that people who are fluent in Russian become the guests of the broadcast: philologists, writers, teachers, translators, journalists ... Listeners can ask questions during live broadcasts, calling within an hour, can send a text message to a special phone in the studio or in the comments to the post on Facebook. By the way, the main listeners of the radio are native speakers living in Philadelphia in the North-East region - the traditional residence of the Russian-speaking diaspora.
