Among residents of the Northern capital, the radio gained incredible popularity almost instantly. Most of all listeners were attracted by DJs of "Modern", among whom one was brighter than the other. The leadership with special attention approached the selection of presenters - mainly these were people from the acting community, who eventually made Modern a cult station. In addition, the radio was actively expanding: in 1995, the program "Full Art Nouveau" was broadcast on regional television, which was later transformed into "Caution, Art Nouveau!" The main roles in it were played by the then-famous radio presenters Dmitry Nagiyev and Sergey Rost.

The Office has already issued instructions for the elimination of offenses. An advertisement for the residential complex was broadcast on Vesti FM radio station in December 2018. So, the audio clip began with the phrase: "What should I give my family for the New Year if you already gave it everything? Give her a promenade, and a park, and stunning views from the windows. <...> Call 688 ...! ", And then within a few seconds information was announced about the project declaration and the name of the developer. However, due to the fact that the pronunciation speed was too high, the department considered this a violation of the Law on Advertising. "A tongue twister in advertising on the radio is the same as a small print in advertising on TV," said Andrei Kashevarov, deputy head of the FAS Russia. The FAS handed over all the necessary materials to initiate a case of an administrative violation of the advertiser LLC Profi-Communications and the advertising distributor of VGTRK. Earlier, the agency discovered an "unacceptable" alcohol advertisement in the Perekrestok and Alphabet of Taste stores.

Yaroslavl ---------------------------------------- "Echo of Moscow" in Yaroslavl was left without leading. At the moment, the release of all thematic local programs on a well-known radio station is suspended. As it turned out, the franchise on the channel is not closed, but suspended. The reason is there is no one to broadcast. As you know, the chief editor of the Yaroslavl edition of Echo, Lyudmila Shabueva, went on maternity leave and only recently gave birth to a son. She can't afford to cook and keep the ethers, combining this with motherhood. Her husband, and also a radio host, Danila Bedyaev, helps his wife in taking care of the child. And also left the radio. One of the region's best radio journalists, Mark Nuzhdin, quit and now works for Ekho Moskvy, but in St. Petersburg. Forced pause does not scare the leadership of the radio station. Now they are actively preparing a change for the departed presenter. Indeed, in order to conduct a high-quality broadcast, special training is needed. At the moment, the leadership of the radio station has found several candidates for the position of radio presenters and is conducting their training. Soon the airs will resume. yar.mk.ru (http://onair.ru/main/enews/view_msg/NMID__74405/) LATVIA ====== 1602 kHz. Russian Christian Radio Center.

KYRGYZ REPUBLIC Biblical Programs for Silk Road: TWR's new Silk Road Transmitter debuted at 10 am US Eastern Daylight Time (1400 UT. bp) on June 10, 2019, bringing the gospel to millions across the largely unreached region of the vast steppes and mountain ranges of Central Asia. The stronger Silk Road signal covers large portions of six countries - the core area comprising Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan. The five languages broadcast over the transmitter are spoken by people groups mostly classified as unreached by the gospel. In addition to the in-depth study of Thru the Bible and the Scripture readings and explanations of Radio Bible Project, Silk Road broadcasts include programs such as House Church, Power in Persecution and The Christian Home. Another powerful program is The Way of Righteousness, which has been highly effective at introducing the gospel to Muslim listeners from the perspective of their own faith. Installation of the transmitter was completed this spring after more than 1,700 supporters of TWR provided the $593,000 cost of the project.

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.

In order to compete for a ton of cement, Penzens had to get on the air, talk to the presenters, and then come to the Express shopping mall to complete the tasks from the "test bag". "Someone tried to buy pink cement, someone collected signatures, someone wrote down appeals to friends. Today the last participant arrived at the studio, who got an empty sheet.

YULIA GOLUBEVA COMMENTED ON THE PROSPECTS FOR THE TRANSITION OF BROADCASTING IN RUSSIA TO DIGITAL STANDARDS Yulia Golubeva, Krutoy Media CEO, commented on the rspectr.com portal about the possibilities of switching analogue broadcasting in Russia to digital standards. Yulia Golubeva noted that the prospects for the transition to "digital" are of interest and concern for the industry: "We are closely following how digital broadcasting is developing in the world. We are against the revolution, we are for evolution. The Russian Academy of Radio does not support the European experience with the disconnection of analog transmitters and the transition to digital broadcasting in the DAB + standard." "We see the advantage of switching to" digital "not in the ability to place several audio streams in a dedicated frequency band (which allows this technology), but in broadcasting existing audio content in higher quality comparable to what streaming services and online broadcasters currently provide. We are ready to consider in addition to traditional analogue parallel broadcasting in the DRM + standard, at the same frequencies. A similar scheme is implemented in the USA (HD Radio), when both analog and digital signals are simultaneously transmitted on the same frequency," said Yulia Golubeva. The commentary is published in the article "Radio Retains Loyalty to Analogue" on rspectr.com. Rspectr.com is a portal for communications, information technology and mass communications. Among the portal authors are managers and specialists of the Ministry of Communications and Roskomnadzor, leading companies in the industry, the radio frequency service, scientific organizations, and industry associations.

Transferred to the transmitter is the Fraunhofer content server and the Omnia.9 sound processor. Provided remote access to all devices on the tower to change the parameters and modes of operation of the content server and transmitter. Successfully passed the RTRS test for power consumption of the transmitter. Started to work with all the power on the equivalent of the antenna. We have achieved the necessary parameters of the digital signal. Set up the transfer of images (slide show) and various textual information for Autoradio and Comedy.

We have taken one more step towards our goal: a full-fledged translation of Comedy Radio into a digital-analog mode of operation with two additional programs in digital. https://www.facebook.com/sergey.sokolov.710/posts/2394109683972025 Sergei Sokolov So, today 07/18/19 at 13:50 in St. Petersburg, at a frequency of 95.9 MHz, for the first time in Russia, a digital-analog radio station has been launched. Comedy Radio has switched to broadcasting from a transmitter that generates and broadcasts simultaneously an analog FM signal with a power of 3 kW, along with a 400-watt digital DRM. Despite such a difference in power, the digital signal coverage will not be inferior to the analogue coverage. And most likely - it will have a large reception area. Experimental broadcasting will last at least until the end of the year. During this time, we need to answer many questions, prepare recommendations, and work out the basis for creating a new regulatory framework that will allow launching digital-analogue radio stations, certifying transmitting and receiving equipment. For the first time in the world, DRM Simulcast broadcasting is carried out on such significant capacities, provided that a neighboring radio station is located at 400 kHz and using such a significant number of DRM services: radio station logos, issue of images of albums, textual transmission of news, weather forecast and much more. The first digital channel is a digital copy of Comedy Radio. In the second digital channel on the same frequency is transmitted to Autoradio. Next week we plan to add a third digital channel. It will be "Europe Plus". Video filmed on the way home. In the countryside. Yes, I was driving home and listening to digital radio. Now in Petersburg it is possible.

Glenn points out that 7780 is always weaker than the other 2 main WRMI 41 m frequencies. A real shame, as Ukrainian Radio at 0230 would always be of interest to me, but rarely, if ever, is it strong enough to yield usable audio. A few posts I've read from readers in eastern N America also report "fair reception". Where exactly is this transmitter beamed, and what's the power. Surely it has to be 50 or less kW. I hope that RUI is not paying good money for a semi-worthless transmitter. Why the BS need 2 very powerful 41 meter channels, where 1 is more than enough. The other could give good audio to the programs now on 7780. Anyone out there listening? (Volodya ``Walt`` Salmaniw, Victoria, BC, July 19, WOR iog via WORLD OF RADIO 1992, DXLD) Hi Walt. 7780 kHz via transmitter #1 goes out with an azimuth of 44° directed to eastern North America and Europe and the Middle East. See the attached graphic (not sure who created it; perhaps WRMI themselves). I usually get good reception of 7780 kHz later in the evening here in NB even indoors with a whip antenna on a portable. Reception might be OK, using the U. Twente SDR receiver or other Web-based receivers in Europe or North America. Unlike some of the other relays, that for Radio Ukraine International only seems to be aired once and on the 7780 kHz, which misses most of North America (-- Richard Langley, ibid.) According to http://short-wave.info, the WRMI 7780 transmitter is licensed for 100 kW, but of course it may be running less. The biggest problem appears to be the antenna beam azimuth, which is 44 degrees for all scheduled transmissions throughout the day - not ideal for any listeners in the midwestern or western US or Canada. (Jim Barrett, Elmira, NY, ibid.) Hello Richard, there are two more updates: http://www.rhci-online.net/radiogram/SW_Radiogram_2019-04-20.htm#WRMI http://www.rhci-online.net/radiogram/SW_Radiogram_2019-05-04.htm#WRMI I created these graphics based on the azimuth information from here: https://wrmi.net/index.php/programming/ The background was a changing of frequency of two programs with data content and a quick overview to finding a suitable WEB-SDR in the corresponding target area (roger, germany, ibid.) If the published antenna azimuths are accurate, and with all other things being equal, 7780 should actually be the strongest of the three here in the northeast. I'll do a signal strength comparison this evening at 2300, when all three frequencies should be active. That might give an indication as to whether 7780 is indeed running at its rated 100 kW power level (Jim Barrett, Elmira NY, ibid.) Thanks for doing that, Jim. I suggest that RUI is not getting value for their dollar with this azimuth. Surely a broader N/NW azimuth makes a lot more sense to capture a larger market in North America. Few if anyone would try to listen in Europe at 0230. Frequency planners at RUI and WRMI need to sit down and make some changes, IMHO (Walt Salmaniw, WORLD OF RADIO 1992, ibid.) And what would you suggest? (Bob Biermann, WRMI, ibid.) Bob: Are you asking for a suggestion for an ADDITIONAL frequency and time? What is RUI's goal? To serve NA or Europe or both? Are they only paying for one airing? Are they entitled to another one without additional payment? (- Richard Langley, ibid.) Such private business details WRMI does not discuss with listeners. Another strange thing about WRMI frequency usage I`m at a loss to understand is that they broadcast on 5, 7 and 9 MHz bands in the daytime, nothing at all on 11 or 13 MHz which would be much less absorbed, especially now in summer; or 15 MHz on NW beams rather than NE on 15770 (gh, DXLD) It was me who brought this up in the first place. I simply don't feel that for a huge chunk of North America that 7780 is a very good choice at all. I'd suggest a more westerly beam would work better. I can't see that Europe would be a target at all during this time --- middle of the night. Another transmitter? Not necessarily, but a more suited one for the North American population. 73, (Walt Salmaniw, BC, WOR iog via DXLD) WRMI 7780 --- I didn't get a chance to check relative signal strengths tonight. I had to disconnect my antennas due to lightning in the immediate area. Will try again tomorrow evening (Jim Barrett, Elmira NY, 0411 UT July 20, WOR iog via DXLD) Here are two clips of the start of the Friday Radio Ukraine International broadcast starting at 0230 UT (20 July UT) on 7780 kHz as received here in NB and also using the U. Twente SDR receiver. Reception at both locations was good. Caution: I haven't changed the audio level on either recording; U. Twente SDR receiver recording levels are typically a bit low. Later in the broadcast they ask for comments on reception. Might be worth contacting them about adding an additional frequency and/or time. Walt: If you'd like to listen to one of my recordings of the complete broadcast, let me know and I'll put the file somewhere where you can grab it (-- Richard Langley, ibid.) So, right now at 2310 UT, July 20, WRMI on 7780 has "screaming preacher" Terry Blalock's Full Gospel program, with a consistent S9+20 to S9+25. 7730 and 7570 both appear to be running Brother Scare. He's not on yet, but I can hear the typical Saturday evening muttered prayers and exhortations of his congregation over a piano music bed. Of the two, 7570 is definitely stronger, at S9 to S9+10, with 7730 a much-weaker S7 to S8. Here in New York, I'm near the center of the 044 degree beam of 7780. Both 7730 and 7570 point away from me (from Florida), but the beams are only 25 degrees apart, so based on the weak signal on 7730, I would think that transmitter may not be running full power (Jim Barrett, Elmira NY, Drake R8B, Wellbrook loop, 0032 July 21, ibid.) Nice clips, Richard, and thank you. Certainly more than adequate for comfortable listening. May be worthwhile dropping them a line as you suggest. It's Ukraine's parliamentary elections Sunday, so programming might be interesting! (Walt, ibid.) Follow up: checking the KD4HSO SDR in Kansas at 2335 UT July 20, Both 7570 and 7730 are steady at S9+20, while 7780 is a weak S7. Obviously the directional arrays at WRMI work as designed and published. It's unfortunate that Brother Scare gets many hours on the two transmitters aimed toward the center of the continent, while more interesting programming is relegated to the northeastern beam of 7780 that is received well on the east coast, but poorly farther west and northwest (Jim Barrett, ibid.) Thanks, Jim. Mirrors my thoughts and observations further west! (Walt, ibid.) Interesting map, Richard. Despite 9395 being almost due north, it's very strong on the west coast in our evenings, too. No wonder 7780 is so poor. Beam isn't at all conducive to good reception here! (Walt, ibid.) Richard, would you happen to know the email address for RUI? I also noted that I no longer could find RUI on my Grace Internet Radio receiver. They used to be listed as NRCU 1 through 4, with the latter being RUI (Walt, ibid.)

During these fruitful 365 days, many important events took place and more than one goal was achieved. On August 1, 2018, Moscow hosted the presentation of the new radio station of the MKR-MEDIA international media holding, and broadcasting at 88.8 FM was launched in the city of Minusinsk, Krasnoyarsk Territory. Literally two weeks later, on August 13, 2018, the flag of the "First International" proudly began to soar on the highest peak of Russia and Europe - Elbrus. In the five months of 2018, the broadcasting network of the radio station grew to 9 cities: Kemerovo, Novokuznetsk, Bratsk, Nizhnevartovsk, Gorno-Altaysk, Tula, Irbit and Moscow joined Minusinsk! Frequencies in Petrozavodsk and Neftekamsk were also won. In December, the editors of PI FM held their first competition, "Drink", among their students, the winner of which received a valuable prize. The new 2019 year for PI FM began with new achievements: on January 15, the radio station began broadcasting on the Intelsat-15 communications satellite on the platform of the Orion Express operator. A wide broadcasting coverage allowed listening to the First International Radio throughout Russia and far beyond its borders - from Europe to Kamchatka! For the first half of 2019, the PI FM family was replenished with Buzuluk and Anapa, and in the near future broadcasting will begin at the won frequencies in Syktyvkar, Elista, Perm and Tambov. "The First International Radio PI FM" can be heard not only on the FM and VHF frequencies of Russia, but also around the world! The radio station's broadcast is available 24/7 in real time on the pifm.ru website, in convenient applications for the Android and iOS platforms, as well as through direct satellite broadcasting. Over the past year, the audience of PI FM has grown solidly! According to the official website alone, the number of people listening to the First International through an online player and mobile applications amounted to more than 60 thousand people per month. The audience of the radio station liked the original content, consisting of Russian- language musical hits of different eras and genres in youth dance processing, interesting news, popular science, music categories and interesting special projects from PI FM. Summing up the intermediate results of the activity, we can safely say that "The First International Radio PI FM" became not only a fresh musical decision in the Russian radio industry, but also a real sociocultural phenomenon. In the spectrum of ambitious tasks of the radio station, the goal was to become a channel for the popularization of the Russian language and a cultural bridge for different countries and generations, coming to every radio and mobile device around the world! In the meantime, the PI FM radio station is happy to share its holiday with all its listeners and is preparing to accept congratulations on their first birthday!

Paul and Burkhard will take you on a tour to finally show you exactly where those nostalgic, fading AM radio signals originate from... Last month we paid a long overdue visit to our transmitter friends from Shortwave Service in Kall; a happy reunion that resulted in great new plans for the future. Good news for our shortwave listeners: you will be able to enjoy Radio Mi Amigo International on shortwave for many years to come! We also looked back at a very successful co-operation of 4 years, during which we managed to maintain an incredible 99.9% up-time for both the shortwave- and the online streaming services. All this time we proved to be professional partners, relying on each other in good times and in those bad times, after we lost our 'captain' Kord. But from the very start it was always clear that Radio Mi Amigo International and the Sendezentrum in Kall were 'a match made in heaven': vintage radio sounds best on vintage transmitters! As we still found ourselves in a very happy 'marriage', there, in that breathtaking Eifel landscape, we 'renewed our vows': 'Let's keep this thing going' remains our shared motto, so we decided to do just that... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y_e2dCZqOpk&feature=youtu.be 73!
