This allows you to maintain and increase your audience. Radio Russii can now be listened to in Lgov at a frequency of 98.6, in Glushkovo at 104.3, in Dmitriev-Lgovsky at 106.0 and in Rylsk at a frequency of 102.4 FM.

Radio surveillance. -------------------------------------------------- In Russian. Video: 2:38 https://vk.com/club3877182?z=video3133258_456239755%2Fb7f02a2d59a43d85c4%2Fpl_post_-3877182_35970 I have long wanted to investigate the river range of radio communications - 300 - 340 MHz, fortunately, I live in Samara on the banks of the Volga River. After consulting with my hobby colleagues, I chose an observation point - the area of the river station, and for good reason: I found a radio mast on its building, which gave me hope for success. The reception was conducted in the early morning of May 24, 2021, equipment - MSi.SDR and laptop, application - SDR Uno, whip antenna. The observation results are as follows: at the frequencies of the 4th (300.15 MHz) and 5th (300.2 MHz) channels, the negotiations of the captains of the ships with the dispatcher are quite clearly audible, and the level of the signal received from the ships is much higher than the signal level control room. The same can be said for speech intelligibility. I believe that the vessels are equipped with more modern equipment. Radio communications are carried out by vessels of the type "Moskva" and "ОМ-338", regularly plying the routes "Samara-Rozhdestveno", "Samara-Zolnoe", "Samara-Gavrilova Polyana", "Samara-Vinnovka". In general, I am satisfied with the observation results. A table with the frequencies of river radio channels is available in the video. Of course, radio surveillance is a rather specific hobby. And although there are more than 2000 participants in the VK group "On the radio", and in general the radio amateur movement has not yet faded, I have never seen radio observers either in the courtyards of houses or in nature. The reason for this, I think, is simple: the constant threats of terrorist attacks. A person with radio equipment will certainly attract attention. So it was with me in the Mega shopping center, when an ordinary radio set made the guard nervous, another episode - on the Samara embankment, the use of the SDR "whistle" aroused increased interest among passers-by. Therefore, everyone who is fond of radio surveillance should be attentive to themselves and those around them. Good mood and interesting experiments to everyone!

This was reported to 78.ru by a law enforcement source. On Tuesday, May 25, an elderly man contacted the police and said that while listening to the Radio Russii radio station, he found out that there was a special company that returned money to those who were not paid interest by banks in the 90s. Having called the number of the organization, the pensioner found out that in order to receive compensation, it was necessary to pay a commission and transferred 310 thousand rubles to an unknown account. A criminal case was initiated on the fact of fraud. photo: freepik.com / diena.it | text: 78.ru (http://onair.ru/main/enews/view_msg/NMID__80221/) * Museum of Rarities of Vladimir Katz. ----------------------------------- In Russian.

According to the directorate of programs in Russian, broadcasting at the frequencies 6.190, 11.940 and 11.810 kHz is not conducted due to a broken transmitter. The resumption of the broadcast is not reported. Thus, instead of three times a day, transmissions from Bucharest in Russian can now be received only from 13: 00- 13: 54 UTC at a frequency of 13.610 kHz. (https://vk.com/radioko) Spain ------------ Perhaps many have noticed that for a month now instead of Radio Exterior broadcasts de Espan ~ a in Russian (Mon, Wed, Fri 17:00 15520 kHz) Spanish music interspersed with ads like "Hola! Vaccinate!" and etc. This week I had a conversation with Svetlana Demidova on Skype, and this is what She said: - Svetlana has been on sick leave for a month now, and it looks like she won't be out until mid-June; - and the editorial board consists of 1 (one!) person; he drops out for a while - and there is no one to release the programs; - the fate of the German edition of REE before our eyes: there were 3 people, one went to retired, the second retired, and the lady who remained did not cope with a load and said "yeah her, this job for three ....." And German As a result, there are no more programs on REE. Now, when everywhere they are trying to save on what they can, at REE leadership may be tempted to reconsider appropriateness broadcasting in Russian. In conversation, we agreed that it would be nice for us, listeners, to make the management understand that the programs are interesting and necessary. But Svetlana is categorically against any collective appeals, so let everyone who cares write to the REE chief on separately. Everyone will come up with the argument himself; the most important thing is concern lack of gear. You can propose to expand the edition by at least 1 person, so that there is a safety net. It can be emphasized in letters that the prestige of the country is important, we want to know how they are fighting the same covid that it will be necessary to establish contacts, tourism ... Ie. interested in first-hand information. It is desirable to write not in Russian. English will be understood there, and Russian text written in simple phrases without intricate figures of speech, Google and Yandex translate satisfactorily. If someone succeeds, then you can also in Spanish :) On REE, Antonio Buitrago is now at the helm, he knows DX radio reception and close (seems to have hosted a DX program in Spanish?). Email REE director mail: antonio.buitrago [at] rtve.es (and you can still blind copy on svetlana.demidova [at] rtve.es, so that cheer up Svetlana herself) Additionally for everyone who is interested in other ways of communication and is not lazy understand: - the so-called "Defender of the Listener", page of complaints-wishes https://www.rtve.es/rtve-responde/participacion/ - Whatsapp number for leaving voice messages (you can in Russian, why not?)

WEB: http://rtrassa.ru/ The name Radio Trassa comes from the name of the international auto club Trassa, which owns the radio. The station began broadcasting at the end of December 2014. Now radio stations are filled with such bright and varied compositions that it can rightfully be called a family radio. It is interesting that the choice of songs included in the broadcast playlist is based on the requests of the radio listeners themselves! Also, Radio Trassa differs in that the team pays great attention to the airing of songs and compositions of little-known groups and performers. Another difference is that the radio is neutral to political issues, but still the program "Russians, Think!" Is broadcast. daily at 05:15 and 17:15 Moscow time, where listeners are encouraged to think and reflect for themselves. Join Radio Trassa and be among the thinking! (https://vk.com/allradi) Russia.

The Pope greeted all the staff and gave an interview to the Italian editorial staff. "Thank you for your work," said the Holy Father, "for what you are doing. But one thing worries me - there are many reasons to worry about radio, about the "Romano", but what worries me most is how many people listen to Radio, how many people read "Romano". After all, you work in order to reach people ... so that what you are doing here, all this wonderful, big, hard work, - so that all this will reach people. " After visiting several offices, meeting with representatives of the editorial staff of Vatican Radio, the Pope noted that the Palazzo Pio is well equipped, but "the problem is for this large and complex system to function." The Pope mentioned the Argentine custom that an appointed official first completely renovates his office and desk. But such a renewal does not make its work more functional: "It is important that all this beauty, all this organization is functioning," the Pope emphasized, adding that one should beware of functionalism. Explaining this idea, he cited as an example the position of deputy. secretary, which is sometimes occupied by seven people. They still do not make decisions, referring to the secretary, so they "are not needed, because they cannot decide, they cannot act on their own." "Functionalism is lethal; it lulls the institution and kills it. Be careful and don't fall into it. " The institution functions not due to functionalism, but due to creativity, if the work is too orderly, then it is, as it were, "planted in a cage." "Everyone needs to have enough freedom. So that everyone can take risks and not ask permission after permission, "said the Pope, wishing the editors:" Keep working and do not lose heart.
