It is difficult to overestimate the importance of this invention for the development of the whole world in the 20th and present century. By means of radio waves, miles are covered, and in each country the radio frequency resource is a state value. Thanks to the radio, communication and emergency warning systems are organized, satellite signals are distributed and mobile communications are operating. Finally, it is on the air that the most popular television and radio stations broadcast, including those that are part of MKR-Media. "All our projects: the international TV BRICS network, First International Radio PI FM, the educational portal Modern Russian, Radio Siberia, the television channel Progress are not limited by geographical boundaries, but form relationships based on new communities: "A cultural bridge" between countries and continents, interest in the native language, traditions of Russian and world musical culture, the lives of great compatriots, the cultural and historical heritage of our country, love for the motherland, "commented the Director General holding company Alexander Ushakov. For the first time, the invention of radio at the state level in our country began to be celebrated in 1945. The resolution of the Council of People's Commissars of the USSR was signed by Joseph Stalin a week before the end of World War II - May 2, 1945. Now this professional holiday has the official name "Radio Day, a holiday for workers in all sectors of communications." Our long-term partner, the national leader in the development and production of special communication systems - Omsk Production Association "Radio Plant named after A.S. Popova "bears the name of the great Russian scientist since 1971, when Alexander Popov could have turned 111 years old. High-tech telecommunication systems created at the Popov Radio Plant are in demand all over the world. They reliably ensure the state security of Russia and the countries participating in the Collective Security Treaty Organization. Radio stations of the holding "MKR-Media" on all their resources will widely celebrate this important date in the history of our country. On May 7, on air of the First International Radio PI FM, special information issues will be heard all day at the beginning of each hour, telling about the fate of the invention and unknown pages of A.S.'s life Popova. What role did the wife of a great scientist play in the invention of radio? What exactly did Popov invent? Where did his invention first find practical application? How many letters did the Radio Committee of the Soviet Union receive during the years of World War II? - All these questions will be answered exhaustively by Lyolya Bubnova. On this day, Radio Siberia in Tomsk together with Tomsk State University of Control Systems and Radio Electronics will host the traditional student festival RadioVOOM live online. On the air - games and prizes from the university, live broadcasts and broadcasts from the studio, in compliance with all medical safety measures. The traditional procession of the university and the dumping of unsuitable equipment from the window of the TUSUR hostel for the first time in many years, unfortunately, will not take place. Radio Siberia-Omsk will broadcast on its air the congratulations on Radio Day from colleagues, employees, its listeners and employees of the Popov Radio Plant. On the air of Chita, Ulan-Ude and Krasnoyarsk in the news releases, congratulations will be addressed to colleagues. Well, of course, on all the social networks of the MKR-MEDIA radio stations, special video cards will appear on Radio Day on radio day - congratulations from those for whom the radio has meaning and meaning.

In addition to the traditional greeting, Mikhail Chirkin turned to those who annually come to the walls of their own university annually on the 7th. "I urge responsibility and understanding to curb the spread of infection." I really hope that next year, on the eve of the celebration of the 70th anniversary of the university, nothing will interfere with our meeting, "wrote Mikhail Viktorovich on the website of the Russian State Technical University. Recall that every year on May 7, many thousands of graduates gather at the walls of Radik. Those who received a diploma decades ago come to the monument to Alexander Popov at the university's doors. Those who are younger immediately go to the Central Park for Health and Safety - to celebrate Radio Day there. Grouped by small companies, they rest under the watchful eye of the police on duty there. This year, there will be no festivities either near the walls of the main building or in the Central Park of Culture and Culture: parks in the city have been closed for more than a month, they are regularly patrolled by the police. And this time, they do not have to wait for leniency. Graduates will not fall into restaurants and cafes either, since all catering establishments are closed. So in 2020, the radio team will be able to congratulate each other only online and by phone. Recall, the traditional greeting of graduates on this day "Popov is risen!". And in response, without fail: "Truly Popov!" Photo: Ryazan administration press service. vr-gazeta.ru (http://onair.ru/main/enews/view_msg/NMID__77356/) * Domestic radio.

There are several goals for this step: development of the radio market, improvement of technologies for working with advertising inventory and data, as well as support for partners - advertising agencies and direct advertisers - in times of crisis. Available were data from a study that GEVS MEDIA completed in March 2020. GEVS MEDIA: "From our point of view, the radio market is taking a big step forward: first of all, it is an advanced measurement methodology (weekly online diary) and an approach based on the fact that basic primary data should be publicly available to all interested. Also important is a guideline for the use of indicators that are expressed in a certain number of people in the sale of advertising: accumulated coverage and contacts. This makes the process of purchase and comparative analysis of the effectiveness of advertising investments simple, clear and transparent. Note that this approach is used when selling ads on the Internet and is de facto successful. For our part, in addition to collecting primary data on listening to the radio, we have developed an online service that technologically meets the new requirements of the radio market. Radio stations have already got the opportunity to work in it, and we are glad to receive positive feedback from them. The service is free of charge available to all legal entities at: radiodata.by. In the II quarter of 2020, it is planned to introduce an additional service for constructing and analyzing the effectiveness of media plans both in terms of audience performance and financially based on official price lists. In the future, it is planned to load into the system data on the actual output of advertising on radio stations that we collect on a daily basis.

I went to the site "Old newspapers" (http://oldgazette.ru) and came across a number "Komsomolskaya Pravda" dated 04/13/1961 with the TASS message "Leap into the Universe" about the first space flight of Yuri Gagarin on Vostok-1. It is interesting fragment for us: With astronaut comrade GAGARIN installed and maintained bilateral radio communication. The frequencies of the onboard shortwave transmitters are 9.019 megahertz and 20.006 megahertz, and in the range of ultrashort waves 143.625 megahertz. These days, such details are not written in the newspapers :) Text version of the TASS message: http://oldgazette.ru/kopravda/13041961/index1.html The whole 1st page in DjVu format: http://oldgazette.ru/kopravda/13041961/13041961-1.djvu The site does not seem to be updated since 2010; sorry...

(Dmitry Kutuzov, Ryazan, Russia / "deneb-radio-dx") WEB and ESSENTIAL RADIO AND TV IN RUSSIAN =================================== Moscow. ---------- Radio Classic WEB: radioclassicfm.ru Classic Radio is an online musical project for a smart listener who knows how to live in his own rhythm even against the background of the general fuss of a modern metropolis. Classical musical compositions sound on our air: symphonic music and opera vocals. Also on the Classic radio, much attention is paid to the so-called "new classics": modern interpretations of classical works, electronic music similar in sound to classical, as well as musicals and ethnic masterpieces. Classic Radio broadcasts online 24 hours 7 days a week. You can listen to us via direct links, as well as using the mobile application absolutely free. The project is supported by the team of Radio VERA. Our big dream is to return the Classic radio to Russian FM broadcast. We are looking for like-minded people in this endeavor and will gladly consider any proposals that will serve the development of this project.
