Now more than 110 thousand residents of Achinsk and nearby settlements will be able to listen to local news and music with a Siberian character on a frequency of 102.5 FM every day. "The launch of broadcasting in Achinsk is the next stage in the implementation of the strategic development plan for the Krasnoyarsk branch of the radio station. In 2018, we started broadcasting in Krasnoyarsk at a frequency of 95.8 MHz; in 2019, the Krasnoyarsk Radio Siberia signal became available to all users of Siberia and the Far East on the NTV PLUS satellite platform. The past year has seriously changed the deadlines, but did not disrupt our plans to build a local network "Radio Siberia" in the Krasnoyarsk Territory - as has already been done in our other branches in the Trans-Baikal Territory, the Republic of Buryatia and the Tomsk Region. We are simply sure that such a vast region simply deserves a full-fledged local station, and in the coming year 2021 (including together with our local partner in Achinsk) we undertake to pay even more attention to localizing the air and expanding the broadcasting network, including including, and to the north of the Krasnoyarsk Territory, "commented Roman Klimas, director of the Siberia Global Media management company.

(https://vk.com/dxing) * Regional radio network. -------------------------------- The most technologically advanced radio in the country continues to develop its own federal network. In the first days of 2021, Like FM radio station began broadcasting in several large cities at once. Having won the recognition of the metropolitan audience, at the end of last year the Like FM radio station began expansion into the regions - in December, a successful high-tech format burst into the air of Krasnoyarsk, one of the fastest growing cities in Siberia, where about 1.1 million people live today. And already on January 1, 2021, Like FM was heard in Ryazan (according to 2020, the population is approaching 540 thousand people). On the first day of the new year, a network of transmitters was also launched in the Bryansk region - the Like FM radio station began broadcasting in Bryansk and the city of Unecha (the total population is more than 450 thousand people). The main novelties of the music charts, bright tracks performed by Russian and foreign hitmakers and talented freshmen sounded in Bryansk on 100.3 FM, in Unecha - on 100.7 FM, and in Ryazan - on 103.2 FM. The strategy for promoting Like FM in large Russian cities was not chosen by chance. It is in megalopolises that a large percentage of the youth audience is concentrated, which is the target of the radio station's format. In turn, millennials and buzzers value Like FM for innovative broadcast programming. It is important for young people to be involved in the process, and the station provides them with such an opportunity, taking into account not only the tastes and needs of radio listeners, but also the digital audience. For the same period of time, Like FM plays more hits than any other radio - the best fragments of compositions are broadcast on the air. And this is really the most popular music, because the listeners themselves form the playlist by liking tracks in the mobile application, on the website www.likefm.ru and in the station's official accounts on social networks. The more voices a song collects, the more likely it will be heard on the radio station. Like FM's credo is new music. The revolutionary Trend Chart project, created in collaboration with Apple Music, gives an exclusive opportunity to look into the future of the music industry, be the first to hear the songs that are sure to become hits in the future. And, first of all, Like FM relies on Russian performers. It was this radio station that pioneered such names as Aljay, Monatik, Maruv, Jah Khalib, HammAli & Navai and others. The audience is also attracted by the bold ideas that the Like FM team comes up with and implements. So, in the spring and summer of 2020, artificial intelligence, the voice assistant of Yandex, Alice, was entrusted to broadcast the radio. The innovative experiment not only pleased the listeners, but was also noted by the professional community, adding the prestigious "golden microphone" of the national award "Radiomania-2020" to the Like FM piggy bank. He became the third radio "Oscar", which the radio station received in five years of work in the capital's local market. Now there are new cities and new victories ahead. In 2021 Like FM will continue building a regional broadcasting network, relying primarily on the largest cities in Russia, including the million-plus cities.

The morning of almost every Soviet family began with the signals of the exact time of the wired radio. On-air radio often sounded in the background from city windows. And in summer, in suburban settlements, where there was a radio receiver in almost every area, the music of Soviet composers, creaking at high frequencies, poured waves in the warm summer air, repeating itself many times, since there were few radio stations, and a lot of receivers. In the 1950s and 1970s, the radio became a cultural phenomenon * - the first and so far the only wearable source of music and news.

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?

But this is a treasure. 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.

(via Anatoly Klepov-RUS, RUSdx #1115 via wwdxc BC-DX TopNews Jan 10) My hometown Naumburg/S established of 1029 year - on the Oberlandesgericht Palace / higher regional court building - was HQ of the subordinate Soviet Army #8, of the Western Group of (Soviet) Troops (WGT) and on territory on the former GDR like also additionally of 57th Guards Motor Rifle Division. It was also a garrison town for the Soviet Air Force / Merseburg / Allstedt / Nohra. Unofficial estimates are, that the number of Soviet military personnel approxim. equalled that of the local GDR population of 25.000 personell and family pupils included. The fall of Stalinism-Communism in 1989 was accompanied by demonstrations and gatherings in the churches of the city. Radio related: Approximate in 1949 year - when school pupils - Y. T. heard the first 'radio-telephone talk - in my life' of the 8th Army General commander on the small Antonov(?) propeller aircraft, when flown-in from Potsdam Wuensdorf headquarters gathering, landed on Naumburg/S air strip. At NaumburgS - the 8th Soviet Army then replaced the US Army 7th brigade as a world war victor in March 14th - June 30th, 1945 year, on the basis of the Potsdam Treaty. I can still remember the entry of the Soviet Army with many horses Panje wagons and 'Made in USA' Studebacker trucks from the direction of the Reichsautobahn Leipzig, on July 1st / 2nd, 1945. I guess in October 1992 the Soviet troops left NaumburgS / via Ea-Bahnhof, transported their goods in 650 freightwagons towards Brest Litovsk border.

At the global level, radio remains the most widely consumed medium. This unique ability to reach out the widest audience means radio can shape a society's experience of diversity, stand as an arena for all voices to speak out, be represented and heard. Radio stations should serve diverse communities, offering a wide variety of programs, viewpoints and content, and reflect the diversity of audiences in their organizations and operations. CELEBRATIONS IN 2021 On the occasion of World Radio Day 2021 (WRD 2021), UNESCO calls on radio stations to celebrate this event's 10th anniversary and the more than 110 years of radio. This edition of WRD is divided into three main sub-themes: EVOLUTION. The world changes, radio evovles. This sub-theme refers to the resilience of the radio, to its sustainability ; INNOVATION. The world changes, radio adapts and innovate. Radio has had to adapt to new technologies to remain the go-to medium of mobility, accessible everywhere and to everyone; CONNECTION.
