However, Vyacheslav recognized only one radio day - May 7. We were introduced by Pavel Mikhailov, with whom Vyacheslav was in close contact. In the nineties-zero-early tenths, we often (sometimes several times a day) talked, hung on the line for a long time, discussing various aspects of our common hobby. Many probably remember his messages in our mailing list and on other forums, where he posted under the nicknames owl, wol ...

For fun, I decided to test the combat readiness of my old friend. Despite his stormy tourist life in the 80s and 90s, he perfectly coped with the reception of KSDA-Guam only with his standard telescopic antenna (without connecting external LWs). However, without the so-called "grounding" (central heating battery / no other), the signal is not audible. Such are the products with the USSR quality mark. Reception video (KSDA-Guam / 9740kHz / 13.47UTC / 19.02.21): https://youtu.be/ZxLZ6-cdvH0 (Konstantin Barsenkov, St. Petersburg / "deneb-radio-dx") * My first radio. -------------------- He began to engage in reception in his school years: the old "Record-314" was in the village of my grandmother. Granny was a believing Baptist and loved to receive transmissions from Saipan, Ecuador and Germany. And she asked me to make her a better antenna. I was interested in receiving broadcasts from different countries. In 1992, he began to constantly listen to Radio Korea from Seoul. And after that I fell in love with the radio. I haven't become a professional, but I can register myself as an amateur. Then I bought a R-253 (used) and stretched the antenna 40 meters out in the village. Now I look at Generation Z and I understand that the window to the world for them is the Internet, but for me the window to the world was the radio receiver and my favorite TV show "Travelers Club" with Yu.A., Senkevich.

The FM era has begun in Russia. In 2006, the jury of the national award "Radiomania" recognized the first team of the station "Radio Legend". Nowadays, the monthly audience of radio in Russia is 107 million people, or 87% of the population *. The first domestic non-state radio stations - Europe Plus, Nostalgie, M-Radio, Echo Moskvy, Radio Baltika - appeared in 1990 on medium and ultrashort waves. In October 1990, the All-Union Commission on Television and Radio Broadcasting opened for broadcasting the first FM-band 100.0-104.0 MHz. Prior to this, FM frequencies (87.5-108.0 MHz) were not used in the USSR for on-air broadcasting. The pioneer of FM broadcasting was Radio ROKS. The radio station was founded by the employees of the Scandinavian edition of the USSR State Television and Radio Broadcasting, Andrey Romanchenko, Yuri Akinshin and Oleg Vakulovsky, and Viktor Goreglyad, the leading engineer of the State Control Committee of the USSR Ministry of Communications. Victor Goreglyad, the first technical director of Radio ROKS, now the deputy general director of RTRS: "It was a huge risk. million dollars, there were practically no FM receivers on the market. The market was saturated in about three to five years. " Radio ROKS received the first FM frequencies for broadcasting in Leningrad (102.0 MHz), Moscow (103.0 MHz), Riga (102.7 MHz) and Kiev (104.0 MHz). The broadcast and production studio "Radio ROKS" was initially rented from the Radio Oslo radio station. The radio station agreed with the Norwegian Ministry of Communications on the organization of a satellite communications channel to deliver programs to transmitters in the USSR. When choosing a format, the founders of the radio took into account the experience of foreign stations that offered listeners from 25 to 40 years old "modern music for adults" (in particular, Danubius Radio, Radio Luxembourg, Radio Oslo). Radio ROX has defined its niche in the music segment, focusing on the classics of rock music: Rolling Stones, Deep Purple, Queen, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd. Talented journalists and presenters have become the votes of Radio ROKS: Sergei Arkhipov, Vladimir Tuz, Vladislav Boretsky, Oksana Podriga, Oleg Grobovnikov, Pyotr Efimov and Yulia Strelnikova. Among themselves, the employees called "ROX" "radio in a tie." There was an unwritten the rule is that a DJ can broadcast barefoot or naked, but the listeners had to create the feeling that he was working in a tie or bow tie. Most of the advertising messages came out either in poetic form or in the form of musical compositions. During the days of the putsch, August 19-21, 1991, in Riga and Leningrad, "ROKS" was the only operating radio station in the VHF / FM range. On December 13, 1991, the broadcast of "Radio ROKS" began in Moscow. By 1993, the number of cities broadcasting "Radio ROKS" reached 35. The radio station enjoyed particular popularity in the Kuban, Belarus and Ukraine. Following the "Radio ROKS" in FM came "Radio MAXIMUM", "Radio 101", "Europe Plus", "Panorama", "Nostalgie", "Radio 7", "Russian Radio", "Silver Rain", "Love Radio ". 30 years have passed. FM has established itself as the main broadcasting standard in our country - the most popular, high-quality and profitable. Radio audience reach is comparable to television and the Internet. Russian radio broadcasting is widely represented abroad. Russian FM radio stations are listened to in neighboring countries: in Kazakhstan, Belarus, Moldova and Transnistria, Kyrgyzstan, Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia, Armenia, and much further: in Spain, Cyprus, the United States and the United Arab Emirates. The largest number of broadcasting points abroad belongs to "Russian Radio" and "Retro FM". The radio industry is successfully mastering new platforms and formats. For example, at the end of 2020, the largest broadcasters launched a single industrial online aggregator of radio stations Radioplayer. Despite intense technological competition, radio is still in demand and influential. In the current "golden age" of audio content consumption, FM radio broadcasting remains the soundtrack of the life of the majority of Russians. * Mediascope.

The "jamming" continued until some warming in relations between Moscow and Washington in 1963. (An exception was a short period in 1959, during Nikita Khrushchev's official visit to the United States). In 1968, in connection with the events in Czechoslovakia, the "jammers" started working with renewed vigor. Then the "interference on the air" eased in 1975, before the Helsinki Conference on Security and Cooperation in Europe. The "jamming" resumed in full force after the introduction of Soviet troops into Afghanistan in 1979 and continued until Gorbachev's perestroika. The basis for the termination of special interference was a special decree of the Central Committee of the CPSU in 1986. The Soviet years saw the peak of popularity of the Voice of America radio programs. In the early 1980s, the daily audience of the Russian-language radio station was 14 million. Of course, people were not only interested in politics. At that time, a third of the broadcasting grid was occupied by programs devoted to scientific, cultural, music, sports and religious topics. With the collapse of the Soviet Union and the beginning of democratic transformations in many new countries - the republics of the former USSR, Russian-language radio broadcasting, as well as broadcasting in other languages of the countries of Eastern Europe, was significantly reduced. On July 27, 2008 the Voice of America stopped broadcasting in Russian and switched to Internet broadcasting.
