This forced measure, taken as part of a package of measures for anti-crisis support for the media industry, made it possible to preserve the broadcasting of television and radio channels, especially in the regions, giving a total savings of about 500 million rubles. The order of the Ministry of Digital Industry of Russia will be signed after the adoption of the corresponding resolution of the Government of the Russian Federation, which, within the framework of special powers, may establish the specifics of licensing and state control in order to provide operational support to economic entities. Published: December 31, 2020 (https://digital.gov.ru/ru/events/40290/) * Radio station "Volga". ------------------------------ In Russian. Video: 4:14 https://vk.com/radioreceiver?z=video-163779953_456241186%2F0f789b3d3cf28cd2a4%2Fpl_wall_-163779953 Volga radio station - radio for Soviet soldiers in the West. Hello everyone ! Today I will tell you about radio "Volga" - a radio for Soviet soldiers serving in the GSVG, and this station could also be received in Czechoslovakia, where Soviet troops were also stationed. This radio station was located in Potsdam. A quiet corner of Potsdam in the Menzelstrasse area. There are almost no cars here, and it was even quieter and quieter between 1961 and 1989. The reason was that the Berlin Wall was very close here, at a distance of about 100 meters. Soviet soldiers and officers who were far from the Motherland should not feel cut off from it, be aware of cultural and other events taking place at home. ... In addition, the Volga was present in the media space in eastern Germany, so that the military would listen to Western radio stations as little as possible. Also "Volga" was focused on brothers in arms, servicemen of the People's Army of the GDR and the German population, many of them knew and were interested in the Russian language and culture. I have met in Germany, I have lived here for more than 20 years, former soldiers of the GDR army, especially officers who spoke Russian very well. Volga's editorial office was located in Villa Claassen (Menzelstrasse 5), Villa Enders, (Menzelstrasse 14) and Villa Bredow, Menzelstrasse 15. All these villas were requisitioned and occupied after the Potsdam Conference by the Soviet military administration. The owners had to move out and look for another place to live. Here the program guides were prepared. The broadcasts came from Königs Wusterhausen and Burg, which had transmitters, masts and all the necessary equipment. Some programs were broadcast directly from Soviet radio. During the Gorbachev era, radio expanded its broadcasting to German radio listeners, and the number of programs in German increased. Thus, the German population was informed about the imminent withdrawal of troops. The last transmission of "Volga" took place on July 31, 1994. By that time, there were very few Russian military personnel in Germany. Did you listen to radio "Volga" when you served in Germany?

Why are old radios now very expensive. -------------------------------- Our world is changing much faster than it seems. Quite recently, people learned news only from rare travelers, from letters, then the telegraph, telephone, gramophone, radio burst into people's lives. Old people still remember how people used to gather in courtyards, brigades, neighbors, drank tea, shared news, listened to such a distant and, at the same time, close voice of the presenter, the sounds of music.

Historians of science believe that the first such hacker in the world worked not with computers, but with a radio and telegraph.

Despite careful work, mistakes can occur. I´m happy to answer any additional questions to the QSL Cards. Best Regards Max berger Blog: https://rusdx.blogspot.com/2021/01/smradio-dessau-qsl-cards-for-100-kw.html (AK) * "SM Radio Dessau" eQSL Cards for the "100 kW- Marathon" on December 26th, 2020. (VV) * I got this eQSL. I sent reports not to Max Berger, who organized this event, but to all participating stations, but on QSL there are no daws near Decade AM and DARC. There, apparently, they were too lazy to forward my letters to Max. However, Max seems to be open to dialogue, so I'll contact him and ask him to redo the confirmation. The passage that day at 6070 kHz pleased: despite the fact that the marathon began in the middle of the day, the Austrian 100-kilowatt power was heard steadily, at first by 2 points (S), by the end at 4. By the end, only noise was added: on the porch of the entrance turned on the LED spotlight, and it was too lazy to go outside to listen to the marathon. I was also afraid of interference from the Japanese Voice of Korea service on the same frequency - based on geography, signals from Asia have a better chance at this time than from Europe. But Korea was not heard at all. (DM) - Received e-QSL from Jake FM - one of the stations participating in the radio marathon December 26.

Out of 32 reports (wherever I sent them, Romania, China, Taiwan, Japan, USA, Great Britain, Slovakia, Czech Republic, Russia, etc., it can be listed for a long time, all refer to the coronavirus, I think so, in order not to work, they would try to refer to this crap in our enterprise) only 2 answers: Turkey and, what did not expect: a response and efficiency from VNIIFTRI. The answer came from Turkey on 12/22/2020 (except for the card, the schedule for the winter season), from VNIIFTRI on 12/28/2020.

Blog: https://rusdx.blogspot.com/2021/01/enterprise-radio.html (AK) CALENDAR - HISTORY OF DX-HOBBIES AND RADIO ======================================== * In 1921 broadcast radio began to develop rapidly. The first experimental radio broadcasts and the first radio studios appeared a year earlier, but in 1921 there were many events and debuts in on-air radio. In March, the inauguration of the President (Warren Harding) was broadcast on the radio for the first time in the United States. March 10 - the first live radio broadcast from the opera house. In the summer and autumn of 1921, the first sports radio broadcasts with commentators took place. On December 24, 1921, radio broadcasting began in Paris from the Eiffel Tower - for this they used the antennas installed on the tower by the military back in 1909.The first French radio station La Tour Eiffel lasted until 1940. (Ruslan Slavutskiy, Moskovskaya oblast, Russia) Photo - Eiffel Tower with antenna canvases - https://rusdx.blogspot.com/2021/01/blog-post_6.html * In the RSFSR in 1921, a wired broadcast radio with street loudspeakers appeared. On-air radio began in the following 1922, after the construction of the Shukhov Tower.

Arun Kumar * FRANCE: 50 YEARS OF OUTSTANDING RADIO - FIP ----------------------------------------------------------- At 5pm on 5th of January 1971, FIP started to broadcast in Paris on mediumwave 585 kHz as "France Inter Paris". This was the beginning of an incomparable radio station, which has still no limits in musical variety. You can hear classical music followed by rock music and afterwards some French chanson - but it is never incoherent or without a transition between the songs. It is a surprising and refreshing station that has survived several belt-tightening moves from Radio France. And there were quite some changes and cuttings in the past 50 years: a lot of local stations of FIP closed in 2000 and the remaining local outlets had to close at the end of 2020. Several outstanding shows were cancelled (like "Dites 33", where all songs were played from vinyl), the news flash and the traffic information were removed in the last years. Fortunately, they never removed the good music choice and the female announcers, called "Fipettes", with their famous voices. But there are some positive developments since FIP started to broadcast on DAB from Lille, Lyon and Paris. With only ten FM frequencies in bigger cities like Paris, Strasbourg and Marseille, FIP is the smallest FM network of Radio France. In the regions where FIP can be received, they have a big audience - hopefully growing with the upcoming nationwide transmission on DAB. The 50th anniversary will be celebrated by FIP in its programme with a lot of shows and historical music. Today, between 5 pm and 7 pm, the history of FIP will be narrated with music and anecdotes. Starting on the 9th of January at 8 pm, 50 years of music in 50 hours will be presented each Saturday for 50 weeks at this time. A full programme schedule can be found here: https://www.fip.fr/les-50-ans-de-fip FIP and its dedicated web channels can be received worldwide via https://www.fip.fr/ (https://blog.radioreporter.org/) 73!
