Viktor Rubtsov, recently appointed head of the holding, posted a copy of the regional government's decision on the creation of GAU PA Mediaholding Express on his Facebook page. "Not without pride and with pleasure I inform you that by the decision of the government of the Penza region a state-owned media holding Express was created," writes Viktor Rubtsov. - The holding will unite different structures and divisions (television, radio, news agencies, newspapers, analytical and expert groups, advertising structures, etc.), the work of which is aimed at informing residents of the Penza region about events in the province. August 5 is the birthday of a new organization, a new approach, a new business in the media space of the Penza region. I am also pleased that in this case, the Penza region is one of the foremost in the Russian Federation. It's nice to realize that the governor of the region, Ivan Belozertsev, not only understands the importance of creating an information policy in the region, but also strongly supports this direction, helps existing media resources, preventing them from dying in the waves of commercialization of everything and everything! "The resolution says that the legal address media holding will be the city of Penza, st. Nekrasova, 24. The Penza Region Department of Information Policy and Mass Media is located at this address. It will now be the founder of the Express media holding.

Now a six-string guitar neck has been added to the name of the radio station. Font and corporate colors have also been changed. According to the new rules for using the Radio Chanson logo, the regional frequency must be indicated under the sign of a guitar reef, and the name of the city is written strictly under the name of the radio station. "We have long nurtured the idea of refreshing our logo, we wanted to make more saturated colors and introduce a graphic element that would be associated with our nonsense and reflect our slogan" There is a lot of music. Chanson is alone. " As a result, they decided that the symbol of our main event - the concert "Chanson Year" - the guitar fretboard, could cope with this task as well as possible. And in our opinion, we chose the right moment: next year, Radio Chanson celebrates its 20th anniversary - it's time to update the brand. So we can assume that the change of logo will be one of the first elements in our holiday campaign, "says Pavel Rakov, head of the promotion and public relations department. (http://onair.ru/main/enews/view_msg/NMID__74427/) - You can see the new logo here - https://rusdx.blogspot.com/2019/08/blog-post_35.html * The State Duma amended the law on foreign ownership of the media. -------------------------------------------------- ---------------------- The government introduced a bill to the State Duma on amending article 19 of the law "On the Mass Media" in terms of clarifying the provisions of the law on restricting foreign ownership in the Russian media. "The amendments to the second and fourth sections of Article 19 of the Law on Mass Media proposed by the bill are brought into line with each other, the content of the first, second and fourth parts of the above article is specified. The draft law also provides for the exclusion of the vague concept of "media participant" from the first part of Article 19. In the fourth part of Article 19, for those who do not meet its requirements, restrictions are removed that exclude the possibility of exercising corporate rights to the extent not exceeding 20% of such participation, and also the right to judicial protection, "the explanatory note to the bill says. The bill was developed by the Ministry of Communications in conjunction with Roskomnadzor and aimed at implementing the decision of the Constitutional Court ...

Last night I caught Radio of Moscow, the wavelength is slightly more than 2000 m. The Speedol receiver is 230-1. - Andrey Molokov Do not flatter yourself. With a probability of 99%, this was a tip from the third program of the city radio broadcast network. Frequency 120 kHz. Radio of Moscow broadcasts on the third button - Lesha Popov Andrey, Since the third channel of the broadcasting network (in Moscow - Radio of Moscow) in Russia and the former USSR operates at a frequency of 120 kHz, these broadcasts can be listened to on the air broadcasting receiver with a long-wave band having this frequency. For example, Degen DE-1103, Tecsun PL-660, etc. At the same time, connecting to a radio network and even having a radio outlet at home is not necessary, since the main radio network emits quite strong pickups. Although the reception is not guaranteed, and the sound quality is worse than on the "three- programmer", but you do not need to pay for the radio channel, which now few people have left. * The site contains the call signs, jingles and identification announcements of radio stations of the Russian Federation, as well as other countries of the world. -------------------------------------------------- -------- http://radiolistener7.narod.ru/index.html (Al Quaglieri, https://www.facebook.com/groups/wrthgroup/) * Radio Siberia began broadcasting in NTV-Plus East packages. -------------------------------------------------- ----- On August 8, 2019, the signal from Radio Siberia radio station is available to all subscribers of the NTV-Plus satellite platform living in the Urals and Siberia. Having tuned in to the Express-AT1 satellite (56 degrees east longitude), residents of the republics: Altai, Buryatia, Tuva and Khakassia; Altai, Krasnoyarsk and Transbaikal territories; Novosibirsk, Tomsk, Omsk, Irkutsk, Tyumen and Kemerovo regions, as well as the Nenets, Yamalo-Nenets and Khanty-Mansiysk Mansi Autonomous Okrugs - they will be able to hear relevant information about the news of the Siberian region, weather, traffic conditions, exchange rates and much more. On the air of "Radio of our country", listeners will also find for themselves the most popular programs of the largest network regional station with more than 25 years of history and author headings. "We keep up to date and try to be present in all environments: not only traditional FM broadcasting, but also on satellite platforms, on the Internet, in applications for mobile devices," said the director of the broadcasting department, producer of PI FM radio "And" Radio Siberia "Igor Azovsky. In 2018, Radio Siberia overcame the geographic boundaries of the Siberian Federal District and is also broadcasting in the Far Eastern Federal District: in November, Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a decree on the transfer of Buryatia and the Trans-Baikal Territory from the Siberian to the Far Eastern Federal District. Also, on June 25, 2019, broadcasting of the radio station began on the NTV-Plus platform of the Far East. In the short term, on-air stations are preparing to launch in major cities of the Urals - Tyumen and Nizhny Tagil - and in the Volga region (Orenburg, Orsk); Broadcast launch is expected on several OTT platforms. (http://onair.ru/main/enews/view_msg/NMID__74470/) * Venediktov plans to launch Ekho Moskvy radio in Ukraine. -------------------------------------------------- --------- In Kiev, may appear the bureau of the Russian radio station Echo of Moscow. About this in an interview with "Strana.ua" said Alexei Venediktov, chief editor of "Echo". The opening of the Ukrainian representative office of Echo of Moscow is one of the goals of Venediktov's visit to Kiev. According to him, the bureau will include a radio station, website and pages on social networks. "This is a bureau that will create high-quality programs in Russian that local radio stations will want to buy. To broadcast from here to Russia, about what is happening in Ukraine," Venediktov said. And he clarified that the project will be launched provided that the law on language quotas is revised. "I hope that the Echo of Moscow radio will be able to work in Ukraine. I am ready to open a bureau in Kiev, and if you like, in Odessa and Lvov. It's actually strange to have a bureau in Israel, in Germany and in Washington, but not to have the bureau is here in Ukraine. It's just nonsense. My journalists, whom I have verified, must get information and opinions of various political forces to Russia from here. It takes only 4-5 people. But for now, the law on language (we are talking about the law on quotas on The Ukrainian language on radio and TV - Ed.) forbids us to do this. In conversations with people from the new presidential team enta of Ukraine, I ask, will there be a correction of the law on the language? ", - Venediktov told Strana.ua. According to him, both Russian and Ukrainian journalists will be able to work in the Ukrainian bureau. And he will probably head the Echo of Moscow bureau in Ukraine, Saken Aymurzaev, the former chief editor of Radio Vesti. "Citizenship is not important for me, a quality product is important to me. But it's clear that I have Saken Aymurzaev (special correspondent of Echo of Moscow in Kiev. - Ed.). My proposal has already been formulated to him," Venediktov told Strana. He specified that he planned to open an Echo of Moscow bureau in Ukraine five years ago. "I had such an ambition even before 2014. Actually, all of 2013 I tried to organize an Echo of Moscow bureau here," Venediktov added. According to the journalist, quotas are not a political issue, but a business one. " purely commercial side interests. Can we, if there is a correction in the law on language, open a bureau here that could produce four hours a day of a product that will be broadcast here and driven to Moscow. We'll see. This is a market issue. The bureau should be self-sustaining, I will not subsidize it, "said Alexei Venediktov. At the same time, he expressed hope that quotas in Ukraine could soon be revised and even canceled." The president publicly announced that the new Council is going to consider amending the law, and inside of this law I would like to abolish quotas. I express my proposal or request, or as you wish, to my interlocutors in the Presidential Office. During this visit to Kiev and the past too, "added Venediktov.

From now on, the word "Public" dominates the banner or avatar. Such an initiative was shown by the general producer of digital platforms Tatyana Kiselchuk. "We change the logo and covers in order to promote the unique Supilny brand, for the sake of recognition and unification. Often people don't know that the Ukrainian radio is Supilnoye, that Culture is the Public Channel, that regional channels are Public, that the Recording House is Public, that orchestras and choirs are Public, sometimes they don't even know that UA: First is Public. Although usually only UA: First is considered Public, "Tatyana Kiselchuk told Media Detector. She noted that people need to communicate, explain. Logo and covers are just a small step in the visual recognition system. Victoria Sidorenko, director of the department of public relations and the media, told Detector Media that the address of the Facebook pages will be changed in the near future. She noted that the page names (Page Name) remained unchanged. According to her, now the addresses of pages on social networks of public speech are not unified. "We would like the addresses of pages on the social network, as well as the addresses of official sites, to be established for the only principle. For this, we contacted the office of Facebook, because we do not replace it ourselves, but they. The other day I received a positive response from them, and the process has begun, "said the director of the department of public relations and the media. In the addresses of the pages that are in the browser search engine, the basis will be - suspilne. For example, it is planned to change the address of the page "RU: First" to suspilne.tv, the branches of the National Public Television and Radio Broadcasting Company - suspilne. The name of the city, the corporate addresses of the pages will begin with suspilne.media. "This approach will simplify the search for pages on Facebook for users. By a single principle, it will be easy to find or tag any of our pages. In addition, it will help increase the recognition of all our pages as official pages of the Public," Victoria Sidorenko commented on the changes. The logos in the social networks of the second and third channels of Ukrainian Radio - radio "Luch" and radio "Culture" - are also changed. Recall, the site "UA: Public Broadcasting" has the address suspilne.media. At the beginning of 2019, the websites of the NSTU branches were unified. Now the following branches of NSTU have new sites: Lviv (lv.suspilne.media), "UA: Donbass" (dn.suspilne.media), Kirovograd (kr.suspilne.media), Nikolaev (mk.suspilne.media), Odessa ( od.suspilne.media), Sumy (sm.suspilne.media), Kharkiv (kh.suspilne.media), Khmelnitsky (km.suspilne.media), Cherkasy (ck.suspilne.media), Chernivtsi (cv.suspilne.media ), Vinnitsa (vn.suspilne.media), Volyn (vo.suspilne.media), Zhytomyr (zt.suspilne.media), Zaporizhzhya (zp.suspilne.media), Ivano-Frankivsk (if.suspilne.media), Poltava (pl.suspilne.media), Rivne (rv.suspilne.media), Kherson (ks.suspilne.media), Chernihiv (cn.suspilne.media), Dniprovskaya (dp.suspilne.media) Ternopol (te.suspilne.media ), Transcarpathian (uz.suspilne.media). In May 2019, the Public Broadcaster launched the new digital platform "UA: Sport" - sport.suspilne.media (Source: Portal "Public. Media Detector").

THE BOARD OF LATVIAN RADIO WILL HIRE A SPECIAL MEDIATOR TO RESOLVE THE CONFLICT IN ITS TEAM The correspondent of the Latvian Radio Ella Semenova told about it on the air of Baltkom radio. "The board is now confused, they announced the mediation process, that is, a specialist will be brought in from the budget who will listen to us, then listen to them, and try to negotiate. As if we can't talk directly. The problem in any case is not solved, nothing happens. Now these are waves on the water, we hope that there will be something more serious," said Semenova. She noted that the crisis in the public media received such a wide response that the President of Latvia joined in his decision. "The reaction was, I was even pleasantly surprised that our cry for help was not unheard. There were people who supported us, including President Levits, who just yesterday stressed that the situation is really serious. He will hold a series of meetings with politicians and try to convince them to increase funding, "said Semenova. In turn, Marite Tukisha, member of the Latvian Radio Management Board for Financial Management, said in a conversation with Baltkom that the mediator will help the public media to get out of the current situation as soon as possible. However, according to Tukishi, the problems of Latvian radio are not limited to this. "We have already spoken to each other several times, but still we could not find a common ... not so much a language, but some kind of solution. And since this question is no longer limited to our radio - the whole society speaks about it, we decided that we need a person who will lead this process. But there are other issues - for example, regarding our employees. We can not find people and can not compete with other salaries in the market. In connection with this, this season we will have to reduce our content," said Tukisha. We will remind, earlier the news service of the Latvian radio in an open letter stated that it expresses no confidence in its rule and asks him to leave or dismiss. The chairman of the board of the Latvian Radio, Unla Klapkalne, during today's press conference stated that despite the current situation, the radio management sees no reason for her resignation. Also, the Board of Latvian Radio called on state leaders to urgently allocate additional funds from the state budget for the salaries of employees. mixnews.lv http://onair.ru/main/enews/view_msg/NMID__74245/ (via RusDX July 21 via DXLD) EMPLOYEES OF LATVIJAS RADIO 2 FEAR THE COLLAPSE OF THE RADIO STATION The reluctance of the Board of Latvijas Radio to understand the situation and resolve the protracted crisis with the content of the programs on the "second button" - Latvijas Radio 2 (LR2) - may end in the death of a unique radio station by the standards of Europe, the team believes. The state LR2 has only 11 people. Eight of them work live, and their range of duties is very wide. A system has been formed on the radio station whereby employees receive part of their salaries from the profits of public broadcasting, because state financing is not enough. A year ago, profits were ceased to be included in the salaries of workers, while state financing remained the same. The LR2 team is on the verge of burning out - people are alarmed by the fact that their radio doesn't even have their own manager, and his duties are performed by the head of LR5. They fear a planned merger of LR2 with LR5. Even after a general meeting with the board, the solution of the problems was not found. An open letter from the management of the four programs of Latvijas Radio - Daigi Mazversite, Baiba Palkavniece, Viestura Sprogisa and Velgi Vitola-Amantova - was sent to the top state officials, the Seimas, the responsible ministers, the National Electronic Media Council (NEPLP) and the Board of Latvijas Radio. The letter emphasizes that LR2 is the most demanded among listeners, but the smallest in terms of staff, and their work is paid the worst. The collective ensures the broadcasting from 6:40 am to 7 pm on weekdays and at 8 am to 6 pm on weekends. The rest of the broadcast is given to music. The problems of LR2 are deeply rooted: initially the structure of its finances and the wages of radio journalists were shaped differently than other Latvijas Radio channels. Starting in 1995 with a broadcast from 16:00 to 24:00, the airtime increased to around the clock, but the increase in budget funds did not happen proportionally. Additional payments to employees and payment for the work of freelance writers were provided by the profits earned by the radio. In contrast to colleagues from other radio stations, journalists received lower salaries on LR2, and "surcharges" (in fact, part of the salary, which the insufficient budget did not allow) made up a very tangible part of their earnings. The question of the proportionality of the base salaries to the salaries of the remaining Latvijas Radio channels has not been settled so far, although this was promised by the current LR board and the previous one, the authors of the letter note. The last straw was the deprivation a year ago of LR2 of that part of the funding that the team received from the profits of the radio. This dramatically narrowed the possibilities for creating content. For fair pay, radio journalists on LR2 will still not audit employees' duties. The so-called program managers do not just broadcast programs, but create them themselves: select and mark up the musical material, intermediate signals by the hour, plan the placement of additional scenes, including commercial ones, live on the air at the console - which means that their work responsibilities are cardinally different from the workload of the staff of the remaining channels of Latvijas Radio. Each employee of LR2 is a producer, music editor, cameraman, journalist interviewing guests in the studio. Many have mastered sound editing, creating jingles, original programs, etc. On the other channels of Latvijas Radio, the teams work according to the command principle, the broadcasts are in tandem with the operator (sometimes several), the producer, the music editor. Many of them do not work on the air at all, they create only separate programs in the recording. Others hold hourly discussions live. And only on LR2 the employee must be a "universal soldier," the letter's authors point out. Despite the fact that listeners' rating of the "second button" increased from 4% in 1998 to 24% in 2005, the radio station employees never felt it on their remuneration for work or in some other form received thanks and praise from side of the board of Latvijas Radio. Of course, it deprives of motivation and enthusiasm - in the current situation, journalists are forced to limit themselves to scrolling Latvian music on the air, announcing exact time and small patches of headings in the morning, reading congratulations to listeners and the like, indicated in the letter. Compensation to journalists, replacing the absent colleagues, has been cut down to 80% - which is unfair, because they have to provide all the same 100% of the air. Constant stress, chronic underpayments for recycling lead employees to physical and emotional exhaustion. The fact that after Armin Ronis left the post of director, no competition was announced for finding a new manager is also a signal that the board is unwilling to solve LR2 problems, the team said. The duties of the head of the second channel are still performed by the head of LR5, Ilze Milzarai, who will receive a surcharge of 30% of the director's salary. But the work of LR2 in its specificity is very different from the activities of LR5. The motto of the second channel is "Songs in the native language", and the fact that only Latvian songs are on the air is unique by the standards of Europe, the employees emphasize. The prospect of a merger with LR5, in their estimation, means the death of this unique format and the radio station itself. As Rus.lsm.lv already reported, after numerous meetings with the mediators and the Board of Latvijas radio, Latvijas Radio News Service journalists did not agree to start the mediation process. The news service argued that mediation would not solve significant problems, that is, it would not help prevent political influence on the board of Latvijas Radio. The news service of Latvijas Radio on July 10, in an open letter, stated that it expresses no confidence in the government and asks him to quit or leave. With this, according to the absolute majority of service staff. In turn, the board held a press conference to talk about the critical situation in the public media. The President of the Latvian Association of Journalists, Art Giga, commenting on the situation at Latvijas Radio, said that the politicians obviously have no quick solutions to overcome the crisis. So far all that the government has done is to allow Latvijas Radio not to pay dividends and save 85%, or 138,234 euros, of last year's profits on the development of technology and infrastructure of the building. On the agenda of the Cabinet of Ministers discussion of the situation in the collective Latvijas Radio has not yet got. The head of the National Electronic Media Council (NESMI), Dace Kezbere, in an interview with LR, said: "Reform of public media should be viewed as one whole - the border between Latvian Radio and Latvian TV cannot be drawn. According to her assessment, both the mass media are underfinanced. lsm.lv http://onair.ru/main/enews/view_msg/NMID__74331/ (via RusDX 28 July via DXLD) ** MOLDOVA.

News kaleidoscope --- DIGITAL RADIO TECHNOLOGY CREATED BY A. DVORKOVICH'S RELATIVES WILL BE LAUNCHED IN RUSSIA The state commission on radio frequencies is preparing to allocate frequencies in the VHF band for the operation of the RAVIS broadcasting technology. The technology has been developed by relatives of former Deputy Prime Minister Arkady Dvorkovich and will compete with two international standards for digital radio, already approved for work in Russia. The Russian technology of digital broadcasting gets a start in life The State Commission for Radio Frequencies (SCRF) at a meeting on July 25, 2019 should consider the allocation of frequencies for digital radio broadcasting technology RAVIS. This follows from the draft decision of the commission available to CNews. For these RAVIS, it is planned to allocate frequencies to the indefinite circle of persons in the ranges of 65.8-74 MHz and 87.5-108 MHz. These frequencies belong, respectively, to the VHF-I and VHF-II bands. The VHF-II band is also called the FM band. What is RAVIS, and what possibilities does this technology have? RAVIS technology allows transmitting more than 10 CD-quality stereo programs or a video program with several sound channels in one 250 kHz channel. It is possible to organize broadcasting on narrower channels - 200 kHz and 100 kHz - with less bandwidth and fewer [sic] programs. The data transfer rate ranges from 80 Kbps to 900 Kbps. RAVIS can work with fixed, portable and car receivers. Reception can be carried out on standard whip antennas in moving vehicles in urban conditions with dense buildings, multipath and the absence of direct sight of the transmitter antenna, as well as in areas with difficult terrain, in mountainous areas and in dense forests. Due to the ability to transmit video, RAVIS can be used to organize regional digital TV multiplexes. The most promising for use in the RAVIS system are He-AAC and xHE-AAC audio coders (including those with support for multi-channel audio in 5.1 format) and H.264 / AVC and H.265 / HEVC video encoders. The HE-AAC encoder allows streaming high-quality stereo sound in the 64-280 kbps stream, and the H.264 / AVC encoder provides video transmission at 200-900 kbps. In addition to audio and video, RAVIS can also transmit text messages; electronic program guide; statistical images and slide shows; emergency alerts with enhanced message reliability; road lighting; weather forecast; broadcast and address data transfer, etc. As a subscriber equipment, it is planned to use microcomputers with connected USB modules to receive the RAVIS signal. Also via Wi-Fi it is possible to transmit a signal from receivers to smartphones and tablets. The developer of the RAVIS technology is the company Sad-Com, created by digital video information systems specialists - Viktor Dvorkovich and his son Alexander. Viktor Dvorkovich is the uncle of former Deputy Prime Minister Arkady Dvorkovich. How RAVIS was tested and why the Ministry of Emergency Situations liked the technology In 2010, the RAVIS technology was tested in Moscow and in Sochi. In 2015, the SCRF again identified frequencies for testing this technology in the republics of Tatarstan and Udmurtia. According to materials for the GRCC meeting, during testing in the Republic of Tatarstan, the local Ministry of Emergency Situations (MES) and the police station evaluated the capabilities of RAVIS as an additional wireless means of mass notification of civil defense and emergency situations: the corresponding funds [sic] were installed in shopping centers, cinemas, medical institutions, industrial enterprises and other facilities of the capital of the Republic of Kazan. The frequencies that are planned to be allocated for the RAVIS technology are now used for analogue VHF broadcasting and analogue TV broadcasting in the D / SECAM standard (4 and 5 television broadcasting channels). The report of the state-owned radio research institute (NIIR), devoted to testing RAVIS, states that the level of interference from transmitters working on this technology for VHF and TV broadcasting does not exceed the level of interference from existing VHF transmitters. At the same time, the VHF-I range is more promising for the implementation of the RAVIS technology. Broadcasting from it has long been translated into the FM-band, and there is no television broadcasting in it. Chance for the Russian industry Small-scale production of receiving equipment for the RAVIS technology is ready to deal with the Sarapulsky Radio Plant (Udmurtia Republic). The production of transmission equipment is envisaged in the framework of cooperation between the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology (MFTI) and NPP Triada-TV (Novosibirsk). The Omsk Scientific Research Institute of Instrument Making also showed interest in the technology: the company's experience in developing silicon electronics can reduce the cost of production of RAVIS receivers by 10 times, the materials for the GKRCh meeting said. Thus, as they add to NIIR, the allocation of frequencies in Russia for the RAVIS technology will enable the domestic radio industry to take part in the creation of competitive equipment that can be quoted on the global and domestic markets. NIIR considers it expedient to envisage the development and mass production by the domestic industry of a software-defined VLSI (ultra-large integrated circuit) for decoding signals of both existing and future sound and multimedia broadcasting systems operating with wideband digital signals with a spectrum not wider than 2 MHz. The Russian standard will compete with two international Recall that in 2018 the SCRF already allocated frequencies for digital broadcasting in two foreign standards. For the DRM + standard, frequencies were allocated in the VHF-I and VHF-II ranges - that is, in the same ranges as planned for RAVIS. And in the range of VHF-III - 174-230 MHz - frequencies were allocated for the DAB + technology. At the same time, NIIR points to the negative experience of European countries, where in an attempt to maximize the number of programs with a limited number of multiplexes, broadcasters have to compromise on the use of low bit rates per program, which leads to a decrease in the competitiveness of digital broadcasting compared to other means of delivery due to the relatively poor quality of sound programs. At the same time, in the RAVIS system there are no restrictions on the maximum permissible transmission rate in the sound channel, inherent to foreign digital broadcasting systems DRM + and DAB +. This, as emphasized by NIIR, allows us to bring high-quality digital sound broadcasting to the market.

(gh) https://ravis-radio.ru/en/ RAVIS, Real-time Audio Visual Information System, is a Russian digital terrestrial multimedia broadcasting system, one of the groundbreaking innovative technologies. RAVIS developing started in 2000. The system is based on Russian patents, passed national standardization (5 state standards accepted) and prepared for international standardization within International Telecommunications Union (included in ITU-R reports). RAVIS provides broadcasting of one high-quality TV program through a radio channel. A program may be received in both motion (in vehicle) and stationery. The system also supports on-air working of up to 12 radio stations in one frequency, which solves the problem of air overloading in analogue mode. . . (via gh, DXLD) ** UKRAINE.

It was actually posted a couple of weeks ago, but I didn't have time to send out an announcement before going on vacation. This edition has many changes and updates for stations throughout Asia and the Pacific. Most of the updates have been from actual monitoring via remote receivers in east Asia and elsewhere, which should improve the accuracy of station IDs and other information. The PAL has been posted on the Radioheritage website: http://www.radioheritage.net/ The link for the PDF version is at the top center of the site's main page. You can also use an interactive version of the PAL by going through a couple of the site's internal links. Members of the IRCA mailing list in groups.io can also download the PAL from the files page at https://groups.io/g/IRCA/files The next update will probably be published in a couple of months. Corrections and updates from users are always welcome and can be sent to bportzer@comcast.net or portzerbt@gmail.com First issued in 2001, The PAL lists medium wave and domestic shortwave broadcasting stations in southern and eastern Asia and the Pacific. It includes about 5000 stations in over 50 countries, with frequencies, call signs, locations, power, networks, schedules, languages, formats, networks and other information (Bruce Portzer, July 30, WOR iog via DXLD) Why so complicated to access it?

Naturally, I was eager to hear how the radio dial sounded in that part of the world, so I brought along a Tecsun PL-380. Most of my listening was done by placing the radio next to the stateroom window, which worked out reasonably well as long as I got up and stretched once in a while. My DXing time was rather limited. For one thing, the sun didn't set until after 10 pm most nights. For another, we had several days when shore excursions left quite early, so we usually needed to wake up before 6 am. As a result, my listening time was limited to an hour or two of sunset DX just before bed time... ... ESTONIA: 1035 was noted with fair-strong signal just about everywhere. ... LITHUANIA: Baltic Waves on 1386 was good in Russian everywhere we went ... MOLDOVA: Three stations were easily heard wherever we went. Vesti FM-1413, TWR-1548, and TWR-999 which has 1945 signoff. I probably also heard Moldova on 1494 (see unids list below). ... RUSSIA: I found three stations active in St. Petersburg. 828 seems to be on full time with various religious programs. I didn't catch an ID but several slogans/program names are used at various times. It has a good daytime signal into Helsinki harbor. 684 is listed as Radio Radonezh and operates evenings only, signing on at 1600. Mauno says signoff is 2100. Radio Marijas 1053 is also on an abbreviated schedule: not on the air 7/17 & 18 when I checked before 0400. Was on the air late afternoons when we returned to the ship, with religious program on 7/17 and OC on 7/18 (not sure of the times). I caught a couple of Radio Marijas IDs at 1600 7/18. It seemed to go off at about 2000 UT +/-. Mauno says their schedule is 0700-1100 & 1500-1900. There's also a beacon audible on 596 kHz with Morse "KDKD" ident. ...

At the end of July, broadcasts in Russian disappeared, in particular, at a frequency of 11940 kHz in analog format and in a digital standard at frequencies of 7305, 9580 kHz. "The short-wave transmitter in Tsiganesti, which broadcasts the IRR transmissions, including those of the Russian service, is closed due to technical problems. Due to a malfunction, the digital broadcasting of the IRR programs (in the DRM format) is also disrupted. The frequencies of 7305 kHz (the first broadcast of the day - to Moscow) and 9580 kHz (third broadcast of the day, also broadcasting to the capital of the Russian Federation) do not work. Radiocom, a broadcasting service provider, said that it would unfortunately take several weeks to replace defective components. In the meantime, listen to the IRR on the second frequency, on which we broadcast our transmissions to your region, according to the frequency table on our website, "the broadcast reported. Last August, RADIOCOM had a similar problem. For several days there were no broadcasts in DRM format. Then it was reported on the air that one of the transmitters in Tsiganesti had broken down. The National Radiocommunication Society of Romania SA, existing under the commercial brand RADIOCOM, relays Interradio Romania using a network of 6 short-wave transmitters. From information on the company's official website, it is known that three of them are located in the transmission center in Tsiganesti, two in Galbeni and one in Saftik.

You can determine the radiation power, guided by the volume of sound and the propagation range. Although the player picks up waves at the same time from all sources, by the nature of the sound you can easily understand from which source the waves are the strongest. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IN4GSC36Q30 Although this method cannot measure the level of electromagnetic radiation, you can roughly estimate how strong the background is in your apartment. At home, with the technology turned off, the background is so small that the player does not fix it. But on the street it already picks up the radiation of the nearest BS mobile communications. At my friends, in a city apartment, the player captures a stable and fairly strong background, especially near the windows. But in some places in the city, the background is very strong. The player buzzes so hard that you can not hear the radiation next to the working phone! Watch the video where I drove through different streets and listened to the electromagnetic background: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h93aBCehwCg But such a crack in my house since last fall. Five-story building in the city, a copper wire from the balcony to the trees, hung with ferrite. It is interesting that it was the sections of the broadcast ranges that were struck by order. Interference around the clock, but with different strengths at different times of the day. It is extremely rare to notice a complete lack of cod. Only phasing of two antennas saves. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xnD3RAEWs-U (Dmitry Elagin, Saratov, Russia / "deneb-radio-dx") 73!
