Therefore, the Transnistrians decided not to take risks and turned off communication with outsiders (or such an order came from somewhere above).

Best regards, Nicholas Hardyman Publisher (Mike Terry / https://www.facebook.com/groups/wrthgroup) * Employees of the Russian radio Matryoshka in London celebrate the fourth anniversary of the first airing. -------------------------------------------------- --------------------- Radio "Matryoshka" is listened not only in the capital of Great Britain, but also in San Francisco, California, New York, China, Spain, the Stavropol Territory and Khanty-Mansiysk. According to the director of programs, the chief editor of the radio Nikolai Krupatin, London's Matryoshka has a license for Internet broadcasting in the world. "The named countries and cities are champions in listening to our programs. Now I'm trying to analyze for myself what we hooked on precisely with this audience. " A radio station broadcasting in Russian in London is designed for a listener who understands the Russian language. "We have excluded the word" Russian speakers "from our vocabulary. Instead, they invented their word "Russian-understanding", although linguists loudly declare that there is no such word, "says Nikolai Krupatin. In his opinion, every project that appears on the air of Matryoshka radio must inevitably answer the question: Will it respond to the hearts of radio listeners? "We have insanely popular programs. For example, "Emigrants rule", where we talk about prominent people who, for various reasons and at different times, left their historical homeland and were able to achieve a lot. Charismatic presenter Andrei Stern writes the scripts for these programs. He has a completely insane voice and a unique sense of humor, "says the editor-in-chief. The project "Posuemuhi" is also very popular, where children under 5 talk about how they see the world around us: "We ask the children to explain the meaning of certain words in Russian and choose those who succeed best. Once in a foreign language environment, children begin to speak the language in which they communicate with their friends, and not with their parents. I will say that adults with wild enthusiasm listen to these programs. And children compete for the opportunity to participate in this project. They try to speak Russian. " According to Nikolai Krupatin, the program "Pochemuha" this year received the award of the Russian Academy of Radio, as the best children's program. Radio "Matryoshka" in London appeared thanks to the citizens of Russia Kirill Komarov and Nikolai Krupatin. "Cyril invested this project, and I put my knowledge and skills into the studio. Now we, the owners, are already three. Alexander Mindalin is an excellent manager. It was he who took charge of the organization and management of the internal and external processes of development of the radio station. I would like to express my gratitude to Alla Komarova, who from the first days led the radio advertising service. Although each employee of the radio station deserves separate words. " It remains to add that Matryoshka radio in London broadcasts 24 hours a day, of which 7 hours are its own programs - news, 5-minute projects, interactive programs and advertising blocks. "I dream that Matryoshka will sound in Germany. Now we are working very hard on this. What is interesting in England will not be heard in Germany. I am sure that in Germany there will be a completely different Matryoshka. We will keep our broadcast model, but mentally and emotionally it will be a completely different product, "Nikolai Krupatin shared his plans. Tatyana Hecker, member of the German Journalists Union | berliner-telegraph.de (http://onair.ru/main/enews/view_msg/NMID__75742/) * Latvian television supports integration with Latvian radio and the LSM.lv portal, reports LETA. -------------------------------------------------- -------------- This proposal was previously made by the Minister of Culture Nauris Puntulis (National Association). According to Ivar Priede, a member of the LTV board, this association is objectively necessary. He pointed out that due to changes in consumer habits, the digital channels of disseminating information from public media overlap. "The Latvian media environment is so fragmented and small that we cannot afford to keep several administrative units," Priede said. Pryde also supports the proposal of the Minister of Culture to allocate 0.17% of GDP to the public media. In his opinion, this will provide a "reasonable, fair, predictable and stable" amount of funding. He wants a new funding model to be developed before July 31, 2020. However, even by raising funding for the public media, for some time they will not be able to implement ambitious projects such as the construction of a new building, Priede said. This is due to very outdated technologies, which primarily require investments. As previously reported, the Ministry of Culture offers a number of measures to support local media. Including an increase in state financing, the introduction of a "digital tax" and the unification of all public media into one. delfi.lv (http://onair.ru/main/enews/view_msg/NMID__75766/) * Scheduled transmission from Grimeton Radio / SAQ on Christmas Eve, December 24, 2019 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ In the morning of Christmas Eve, December 24, we will try to start the old Alexanderson 200 kW transmitter, from 1924 and send out a Christmas message on VLF 17.2 kHz CW.
