Overview of popular radios (March 2020) according to the Internet resource. -------------------------------------------- Pure curiosity https://omegapost.ru/best/luchshie-radiopriemniki.html (https://vk.com/public158109176) * On Wednesday afternoon, June 17, the radio went crazy. -------------------------------------------- Around noon on Wednesday, June 17, drivers in Moscow and Moscow Region witnessed a strange phenomenon. Foreign speech was heard from the receivers, and so clearly, as if broadcasting from around the corner, also in stereo. The author of these lines learned about this by accident, from the driver of the Gazelle. "I don't understand anything, are we moving to Europe?" - exclaimed the man who stopped at the column to drink water. I immediately rushed to my receiver. It was unbelievable: an ordinary radio, no special, no special, just "rattled" Finnish and Norwegian speech. Here is a talk show, and here is music. I listen to ten minutes, listen to the hour, but it can't be! Actually, it can. The phenomenon when we, in central Russia, catch northern stations is very rare and is called "Aurora". As you can guess from the name, it is associated with auroras. Auroras create a kind of "mirror" at an altitude of about a hundred kilometers above the Earth. Station signals are reflected from it. But this happens only during the strongest magnetic storms. And magnetic storms occur when the Sun is in the active phase. Now the sun is "sleeping." Another oddity: the "northern" signals are received very vaguely, with a peculiar sound that cannot be confused with anything. It is as if the announcer says "from the pit", and the "pit" is in addition covered with iron sheet. But on Wednesday, the signal was clear, as if from another room. Only sometimes it was interrupted by a strange hiss, which hinted that the signal was reflected. And the most important thing. I immediately looked on the Internet, what is the level of activity of the Earth's magnetic field. I was sure that a magnetic storm was raging over the Northern Hemisphere of incredible strength. Imagine my surprise when all the indicators of the activity of the magnetic field turned out to be zero. There is no storm, and no auroras, respectively, either. But there is an Aurora! We immediately called the oldest Russian radio amateur, candidate of technical sciences Vladimir Polyakov. "And I already know, I hear it myself," he said from the threshold. According to Polyakov, oddities began as early as Tuesday, June 16. In the Moscow region, radio beacons from Norway and Finland were perfectly audible. And from Crimea - Moscow. Polyakov confirmed: no natural reasons for this behavior of nature are not visible. He cautiously suggested that this was some kind of experiment. Periodically, scientists "warm" the ionosphere by sending high energy signals there. They poke into it like children in an anthill, with a twig, watch how it will react. But then again, no one has ever seen an artificial effect cause such powerful effects in vast spaces. Probably, we still encountered an incomprehensible natural phenomenon. Oddities are not limited to this. In the Czech Republic, sprites were observed a few days ago. These are the strongest lightnings of an unusual appearance, red, resembling fireworks. They do not look like lightning, and behave differently - for example, they are very slow, a glow discharge as if hanging in the air. Not only are such "sprites" very rare in themselves, it is a tropical phenomenon, and in the middle latitudes it has not been observed, it seems, never. And here, over the Czech Republic, "sprites" hung for several hours. And something else. Many have noticed that, in fact, there was no night from June 16 to June 17 in Europe. Of course, the days are long and the nights are short, but the darkness still envelops the middle latitudes for an hour or two. But not at this time. In the North, the sky shone with an incredible silver gleam. These were mysterious silvery clouds. Their nature is not fully understood. They hang at an altitude of about 80 kilometers above the Earth. It is believed that they are generated by cosmic matter, around which crystals of water ice are formed. In principle, now is the season for observing silvery clouds. But so bright? It seems that people have not seen clouds of such brightness since 1908. Then, both before and immediately after the fall of the Tunguska meteorite, the sky shone in the same way. It is unlikely that anyone will undertake to say exactly what is happening to nature these days, but the fact is that something strange is happening. In nature, everything is connected. We are used to thinking that the atmosphere above us is just air, which becomes thinner with height, and that's all, then space begins. In fact, everything is arranged very subtly there. The ionosphere plays a key role - an invisible layer of ionized particles at an altitude of 80-100 kilometers. We could not live without an atmosphere, but just as we could not live without the ionosphere, although many of us do not even know that it exists. And now the ionosphere is now in an excited state. Amazing currents came from somewhere in it, or it was subjected to powerful radiation. Naturally, all this is reflected in the climate. Let's hope that soon scientists will figure out what and how.

The work will take place in two stages from June 20 to July 31. From June 20 to July 5, it is planned to paint the base of the tower and the middle part of the structure up to a height of 178 meters. These days, television and radio will operate normally. On July 6-31, it is planned to paint the structure from the mark of 178 meters to the top of the tower (275 meters). In connection with the work of installers near transmitting antennas, it is possible to suspend the broadcast of television and radio programs. Information on the dates and times of broadcasting interruptions will be posted in advance in the media, on the RTRS website and in the TV Guide mobile application. The experience of such work shows that the painting of the upper tiers of metal TV towers is associated with the risk of paint splashing in a radius of up to 200 meters. Despite the use of anti-spray technology, RTRS recommends not to be under the tower, if possible, look for detours, do not leave vehicles nearby. Corresponding reminders are placed on the fences of the television center, in residential buildings and public buildings located in the area of possible paint. For reference The Perm TV Tower, 275 meters high, is the third highest TV tower in Russia, built at the end of 2016. The TV tower is located on the territory of Motovilikhinsky district on the street. Krupskaya, 61a.

N. Artemiev. The Great Patriotic War was a difficult test for the Soviet people. The treacherous attack on the USSR by the armed forces of fascist Germany, relying on the industry of almost all of Western Europe and already having experience in modern warfare, allowed them to temporarily advance deep into our country a considerable distance. During heavy defensive battles, the Soviet Armed Forces inflicted great damage to the Nazi troops and thwarted their plan for a lightning war ...

They were used to conduct propaganda among enemy soldiers. Schematically, it looked like this: we were looking for a place in front of battle formations, closer to enemy positions. At night, it somehow settled down: they pulled out a comfrey, masked it, if conditions allowed, covered it with a boulder. The station was serviced by several people: chief, operator, assistant operator. The main character was, of course, the announcer, but the entire installation crew was one team, and everyone risked the same. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BPNQgskCt8U&feature=youtu.be (Ruslan Slavutsky, Moskovskaya oblast, Russia) BELARUS =========== After the cessation of broadcasts in the ranges of long, medium and short waves, there was one real chance to hear broadcasts from this country on air.

(wb df5sx, wwdxc BC-DX TopNews June 15) UKRAINE In October, the broadcasting capacity of Radio Crimea Realia on the territory of Crimea will increase 2.5 times. The signal of the Ukrainian radio station at a frequency of 648 AM will cover almost the entire peninsula. This was announced on his page on the social network Facebook by a former member of the National Council for TPM Sergey Kostinsky. He writes, in particular: "Last year, Radio Crimea Realities (MU Radio Crimean Communities) received support from the US Embassy to acquire a powerful AM transmitter for broadcasting to the territory of Crimea from the Chongarsky mast. Now the transmitter has a capacity of 25 kW, has already been purchased by the radio station. The broadcaster is preparing the relevant documents - first at the UCRF, then at the National Council. Actual broadcasting of the radio station from the new transmitter from Chongar in the direction of the Crimea will begin in October. I remind you that Radio Crimea Realities began broadcasting on medium waves - at a frequency 648 AM - in the autumn of last year, in Chongar. Broadcasting power was 10 kW. The broadcasting signal of the radio station was not suppressed by the occupation authorities of Crimea. It can be received in most parts of Crimea, as well as in most parts of Simferopol. The new transmitter will increase broadcasting power by 2,5 times. Due to this, the territory will be increased - almost the entire Crimea, the reception quality will also significantly improve and a signal from a Ukrainian radio station. The development of medium-wave broadcasting became part of the third stage of the development by our team (2015-2020) of Ukrainian broadcasting in the territory of the temporarily occupied Crimea. Telecommunications operator is the company Television networks of Ukraine. I consider it necessary to restore the broadcasting of Ukrainian radio to the territory of Crimea on Ukrainian radio at a frequency of 549 AM, as well as to begin broadcasting the army radio station Army FM, as well as the Crimean Tatar Meydan FM, at the AM frequencies prepared in advance by the National Council. The number of Ukrainian radio stations in the Crimean radio should increase. Medium waves are received in the Crimea on almost all receivers of new cars and any stationary radios. This signal spreads freely in the Crimea. And Crimeans accept it, as evidenced by the live broadcasts of Radio Crimea Realities. PS. Despite the change in September-March of the composition of the Commission at # MIP, which, with the participation of the National Council and # MTOT, developed this track all 5 previous years, the planned steps continue to be implemented. First of all, thanks to the broadcasters themselves, Alexander Yankovsky. Radio Crimea Realities is a medical project that was created by the Radio Crimean Communities GO under the leadership of the Crimean journalist Alexander Yankovsky, with the support of the Radio Liberty - Crimea Realities project (Volodymyr Pritula), the Ministry of Information Policy (Yuriy Stets) and the National Council of Ukraine for Television and broadcasting. The project started in 2015 in the form of a radio broadcast, which aired on Ukrainian radio. Subsequently, the transfer developed into a full- fledged radio station. PS. Special thanks to Valery Yurchenko, who acted as a consultant to our team on the development of medium-wave broadcasting during 2015-2020 " Source: Sergey Kostinsky's F_B page.

A corresponding survey of people over 18 years old was carried out by Median and STEM / MARK. According to the results of the study, the Czech Radio and Czech Television programs comply with the requirements of the population put forward in relation to the public media. Czech Radio and Czech Television, according to the survey, are considered the two most important media in the country. Citizens rate the current value of the concession fee as appropriate or low in the case of Czech Radio - 84%, and in the case of Czech Television - 81% of citizens, including pensioners and low-income families. Concessionaires, according to the survey, also realize that a minimum increase in contributions, which has not happened for more than 10 years, would correspond to the expansion of the Czech Radio and Czech Television programs already carried out over the past decade. Three quarters of the respondents emphasized that they would perceive the expansion of advertising in the program of the public media discussed as a decrease in the level of broadcasting already achieved. The contribution for the radio since 2005 is nominally 45 crowns per month (1.7 euros). As a result of inflation, its real value has declined to the level of 33 kroons (about 1.2 euros) by today. Despite this circumstance, Czech Radio did not stop expanding its portfolio of stations, programs and implementing a variety of special projects.
