After the launch, Radio Russia will become available to more than 26 thousand residents of the city and its suburbs. Transmitter power - 1 KW, transmitting antenna suspension height - 82 m. Valdai is one of the oldest cities in Russia. It was first mentioned in the Novgorod birch bark letter, dated 1140-1151. The location of Valdai on the post road between Moscow and St. Petersburg contributed to the prosperity of the city and the development of crafts in it. The Valdai craftsmen cast big bells and small bells and became famous throughout Russia. Valdai is famous for its clean lakes and the old Iversky Monastery. This is one of the three monasteries built in the 17th century on the initiative of Patriarch Nikon, along with New Jerusalem and the Cross. Great writers and artists have come here for inspiration. Valdai was visited by Alexander Radishchev, Alexander Pushkin, Nikolai Nekrasov, Vladimir Serov and Gabriel Derzhavin. Already in the 21st century, the first conference of the discussion club of the same name was held in Valdai. The annual conference is attended by the world political, cultural and scientific elite. The launch of the radio station "Radio Russia" in Valdai is part of the large-scale program of the All-Russian State Television and Radio Broadcasting Company and RTRS to expand the broadcasting network. The plan provides for the creation of a new broadcasting network of radio stations "Radio Russia", "Mayak" and "Vesti FM". VHF transmitters, for which receivers are practically not used by radio listeners, will be replaced by modern FM transmitters. The project will make terrestrial FM radio available to the majority of the country's residents. This will increase the coverage of VGTRK radio stations and the number of their listeners. Earlier, in the course of the federal target program "Development of television and radio broadcasting in the Russian Federation for 2009-2018," radio stations "Radio Russii", "Mayak" and "Vesti FM" were included in the first multiplex along with 10 TV channels. To broadcast them in the Novgorod region, the RTRS branch created a network of 35 transmitting stations. First of all, they were equipped with television broadcasting equipment. Subsequently, RTRS plans to place broadcasting transmitters at these facilities. FM-transmitter "Radio Russii" in Valday will be the fourth in the region. By the end of 2020, in accordance with the VGTRK development plan, it is planned to commission two more FM transmitters in the villages of Melekhovo, Chudovsky District and Mokry Ostrov, Krestetsky District, and transfer broadcasting in Borovichi from VHF to FM. In 2021, RTRS plans to transfer the broadcasting of Radio Russii from Veliky Novgorod to the village of Proletary using a higher antenna suspension and a more powerful transmitter. The signal of "Radio Russii" will cover 90% of the region's population and cover the M10 highway in the Novgorod region.

What allows it to take a hit from both numerous competitors and the authorities? At the end of August, the Ekho Moskvy radio station celebrated its 30th anniversary. According to Mediascope, it ranks first among other news radio stations in the capital, with about 950,000 listeners every day. This is an "eternal" audience, says Alexei Venediktov, who has been the station's editor-in-chief since 1998. He means that talk radio stations in different countries of the world include the same listeners, namely, people after 45 years of age. According to Venediktov, in recent years, the audience has fallen sharply (to 700,000 listeners) only after the annexation of Crimea: those who have not forgiven her extensively citing Ukrainian politicians turned away from the radio station. But these listeners also returned. Venediktov himself associates this with the fact that he followed the precepts of his grandmother and did not undertake anything, faced with a fall in the audience ...

To measure the ratio of the average loudness level of advertisements and interrupted radio transmissions, on July 7, 2020, employees of the FAS Russia made a recording of the broadcast of the Strana FM radio channel. According to the Measurement Methodology approved by the order of the FAS Russia, the volume of the sound of the block of advertising or announcements should not exceed the value of the sound volume of the pre- advertising or post-advertising fragment by more than 1.5 dB. However, in the fragment of the broadcast under consideration, the volume of the logo sound exceeded the volume of the inter-advertising fragment by 1.6 dB, and the volume of the post-advertising fragment by 2.1 dB. Thus, the requirements of the Law on Advertising were violated on the air of the Strana FM radio channel. "On the fact of violation of the" ORR "radio network company as an advertising distributor of too loud advertisements, the Commission of the department issued an order to terminate such actions, - explained Tatyana Nikitina, head of the Department for Control of Advertising and Unfair Competition of FAS Russia. - The materials of the proceedings were transferred to initiate an administrative offense case. The organization faces a fine from 100 to 500 thousand rubles. " According to part 11 of Article 15 of the Law on Advertising, when broadcasting an advertisement, the volume level of its sound, as well as the volume level of the sound of the message about the subsequent broadcast of the advertisement, must not exceed the average volume level of the sound of the radio program or radio broadcast interrupted by the advertisement. At the same time, by virtue of part 14 of Article 15 of the Advertising Law, this requirement also applies to information posted in radio programs about radio broadcasts broadcast on the corresponding radio channel, messages about the name of the radio program and the frequency of its broadcast, as well as other information about this radio program. The methodology for measuring the ratio of the loudness level of advertisements to the average loudness level of TV and radio programs interrupted by advertisements, approved by Order of the FAS Russia dated May 22, 2015 No. 374/15 (registered by the Ministry of Justice of Russia on July 17, 2015, registration No. 38079). According to clause 7 of the Methodology for the ratio of the volume of the sound of advertising and broadcast, the volume of the sound of the block of advertising or announcements should not exceed the volume of the sound of the pre-advertising or post- advertising fragment by more than 1.5 dB. In accordance with part 7 of Article 38 of the Advertising Law, the advertising distributor is liable for violation of the requirements established by Article 14 of the Advertising Law. In accordance with part 1 of article 14.3 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation for violation of part 12 of article 14 of the Federal Law "On Advertising", an administrative fine is provided in the amount of 100 to 500 thousand rubles. The measurement of the loudness level of the recording fragments was carried out using a measuring instrument. The software and hardware complex "ASK-loudness" (certificate of type approval of measuring instruments RA.RU.311478 No. 60512-15, verification certificate No. 3 / 340-0758-20 is valid until " May 11, 2021).

These are radios, radio receivers, radio and radio tape recorders. They were made in different parts of the Soviet Union - in Belarus, the Baltics, Ukraine, Crimea, as well as in Leningrad, Moscow, Chelyabinsk and Perm. "I have always liked radios, besides, I am a music lover, I love listening to music. Retro receivers are very stylish, beautiful and interesting things. It is now fashionable to decorate the interior with them, "says Alexander. The oldest exhibit in his collection is a 1951 Moskvich radio. The most unusual Soviet apparatus is "Romance 105". It is a true music center with radio, turntable, reel to reel tape recorder and speakers. There are also Perm devices, some of which are already a collector's item. Alexander buys retro receivers at Avito, at thrift stores, at a flea market and from friends. Half of the receivers in the collection are in working order, but require restoration and repair. The devices are in good external and working condition, with which practically nothing needs to be done, about ten percent. The collector restores the appearance and mechanics himself. If he encounters difficulties in electronics, he gives it to repairmen. The collector listens to radio on Soviet receivers every day. "Some radios have good sound quality. There is even such a term: warm tube sound. I have several devices on which you can listen to all radio stations in Perm. And late in the evening on short and medium waves you can listen to foreign radio stations, which is also interesting, "says the collector. Alexander keeps all the retro receivers in the apartment, but in the future he is thinking of arranging a special space for them.

Imagine being able to spot enemy maneuvers and their artillery from a height - or even better, if you were able to instantly convey this information to your colleagues on the ground. However, the technology of those years did not offer elegant solutions to such problems. By the beginning of the 20th century, all the necessary components for the implementation of aerial reconnaissance appeared: a telegraph, a telephone and an airplane.

It was closed shortly after the end of the Cold War and Hungary's transition to democracy. The work of the service resumes against the background of the deterioration of the situation with freedom of the media in the country noted by international organizations. "We are delighted to be back in Hungary with outstanding content and RFE / RL's inherent commitment to serving the public interest by communicating issues of greatest concern to our audience," said Acting President Daisy Sindelar. The Hungarian service was headed by Gyula Czak, who previously worked for Euronews, was a correspondent for the BBC's Hungarian Service, and held senior positions in a number of Hungarian media outlets. Radio Free Europe / Radio Liberty decided to reopen the Hungarian service last autumn. This was a response to the serious changes that have taken place in the media sector in the country. In the 2020 Press Freedom Index compiled by Reporters Without Borders, Hungary dropped 16 spots at once to 89th place. Over the past 10 years, the government of Viktor Orban, directly or indirectly, has taken control of most of the leading media in the country, including public television and radio. The Hungarian service of Radio Liberty (Szabad Europa Radio) broadcast from Munich and was closed in 1993. The office of the new Hungarian Service is located in Budapest and operates as an online platform (website: szabadeuropa.hu). Earlier, the work of the RFE / RL bureaus in Romania and Bulgaria was resumed. ekhokavkaza.com (http://onair.ru/main/enews/view_msg/NMID__78281/) * Many thanks to SWLing Post contributor, Mark (VA3MK), who writes: I found a great website written by the former head of broadcasting in Finland.
