The press service of the department noted that Russian companies also produce a number of types of equipment, but the authorities are additionally working with manufacturers on the possibility of localizing the production of such goods in Russia "in order to insure possible future risks." Parallel import implies the possibility of importing products into the country without the consent of the copyright holder - through third countries. On March 30, Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin signed a decree abolishing responsibility for gray imports ... The sanctions imposed by Western countries against Russia because of the operation in Ukraine have affected, among other things, the telecommunications industry.

Recall that this spring it became known that the owner of the wire radio in Irkutsk, as well as the entire radio wire infrastructure in the Angara region - Sibdalsvyaz-Angara-1 LLC - is closing this direction as part of the bankruptcy procedure, selling equipment and vacating the premises on Gorky, 27. Event caused a wide resonance among the Irkutsk people. The issue was also discussed at the site of the City Duma - the deputies noted that they were ready to achieve the preservation of wired radio in the regional center, even at their own expense. As Yury Korenev noted in an interview, as part of solving the problem, a large base was worked out with the lawyers of the Duma, a discussion is underway with the administration of Irkutsk: - Many representatives of the younger generation, including those holding high positions in the mayor's office, do not understand how important wired radio is for older people . There are about 160 thousand pensioners in our city. Yes, not all of them listen to the radio. Now there are five and a half thousand subscribers in Irkutsk, but a month ago there were six thousand two hundred. Yes, the Irkutsk wired radio is not a profitable thing, but it is socially important, it is part of our urban culture...

"The space of the square on this day will be transformed and will resemble the Radio House, which became a second home for Olga Berggolts during the blockade - it was there that she worked, inspiring Leningraders, instilling hope and faith in victory. The loudspeakers placed on the stage and the recreated working atmosphere of the radio station of those years will add a nostalgic touch to the event. The audience will hear the voice of Olga Berggolts, see footage of the chronicle of the days of the siege," the press release says. The State Philharmonic Symphony Orchestra, in turn, will perform Dmitry Shostakovich's famous Seventh Symphony. According to representatives of the Primorsky Cultural Center, this composition will perfectly reflect the time of the blockade, since it was written in besieged Leningrad. The competition "We live in this city" has been held in St. Petersburg every year since 2015 in memory of Olga Bergholz. The event traditionally gathers hundreds of participants from different regions of Russia. More than 600 people applied this year. photo: press service of St. Petersburg State Budgetary Institution "Primorsky Cultural Center" | text: gorod-plus.tv (https://onair.ru/main/enews/view_msg/NMID__83119/) * Keep your distance: painting of the TV tower starts in Belgorod. ------------------------------------------------- From May 18 to June 30, the branch of the RTRS "Belgorod ORTPTS" will paint the TV tower of the Belgorod television center. The TV tower allows Belgorod residents to receive a high-quality TV signal and decorates the city. Since the construction of the tower in 2013, its metal structures have not been painted, so there is a need to do it now. The tower is located at the address: Belgorod, st. Mokrousova, 6. During work, it is possible to spray "colorful dust" outside the security zone of the tower. Spread of paint droplets can reach 300 m. The Belgorod branch of the RTRS asks residents to take precautions: bypass the painting area, do not leave uncovered vehicles within a radius of 300 m from the TV tower, and, if possible, cover the facades and windows of nearby buildings. After painting works, the main tower of the Belgorod region will acquire the effect of shine and protection from the destructive effects of the environment. The colors will remain unchanged - red and white, according to the regulations. The branch apologizes to the residents of the city for any inconvenience.

Shortwave radio in Ukraine: why revisiting old-school technology makes sense in a .... Published: March 9, 2022 https://theconversation.com/shortwave-radio-in-ukraine-why-revisiting-old-school-technology-makes-sense-in-a-war- 178575 (via WOR) GRIGORIOPOL EXPLOSIONS Grigoriopol is a town founded by Armenians in 1792 in what is now Transnistria, which is a state internationally re- cognized as part of Moldova. It is located on the left bank of the river Dniester. The Grigoriopol (Russian designation: Mayak Radio Centre) is a very large broadcasting facility situated near Maiac, an urban settlement 11 km northeast of Grigoriopol, Transnistria. Construction work on this facility known as the Pridnestrovian radio and television center with an area of estimated 950 hectares, which housed at the beginning of the 1990s over 20 transmitters working in the shortwave and mediumwave frequencies, took place between 1968 and 1975 The antennae consisted of several antennae for shortwave with heights between 60 and 160 metres and a large rotatable shortwave antenna, which could focus its radiation to every point on the Earth! After the collapse of the Soviet Union, these transmitters were used by several foreign broadcasting companies. In 1997 several antennae were destroyed or damaged by excessive icing. The largest loss was a 350 metres tall guyed mast and a 250 metres tall mast used for mediumwave service. On Monday, the 25lh April, 2022, authorities said the offices of the state security ministry in Tiraspol were hit by what appeared to be a grenade attack. Next day i.e., on Tuesday, the 26th April, 2022 early morning, two blasts occurred, first at 6:40 am and then at 7:05 am (0340 UTC and 0405 UTC) targeting the "Mayak" radio center, about 50 kilometers (30 miles) from the regional capital Tiraspol. Reports said that as of 9 am, the two most powerful antennae are out of service, one a 1000 kWand the other a 500 kW. Thankfully none of the PRTC (Pridnestrovian radio and television center) employees and local residents was injured This is one of 14 radio transmitting centers of the former USSR. The signal from the PRTC can be relayed to the USA, the Middle East and Latin America. The Government said two "powerful" antennae that were re-broadcasting Russian radio were out of service, and sha- red images of them lying on the ground. There was no immediate reason to suggest a link between the two incidents. As of 2021, the facility was being used as a medium wave transmitter for Vesti FM on 1413 kHz with 500 kW and Trans World Radio on 999 kHz (500 kW) and 1548 kHz (1000 kW), The shortwave transmissions were on 9940, 1 1 805, 1 1 530 and 1 1 570 kHz mostly for TWR. An official from the transmitter site confirmed that shortwave antennae were destroyed. There were no shortwave broadcasts from this site, the last one was Denge Welat, which Ivo Ivanov, the DXer, repor- ted that it stopped on 18th April, 2022 However, both MW frequencies 1413 kHz and 999 kHz were back on air at around 1630 UTC which confirms that only shortwave antennas were affected. The TWR, user of the transmitter site, could not be contacted. (From Asian DX Review May 2022) Tropical Bands Monitor 2022 as logged by DX-ers worldwide. Compiled by Anker Petersen 01 May 2022 means that the station has been reported heard in 2022 by a DX-er during the month marked. Unmarked months mean that no DX-er has reported this station as heard, but not necessarily, that it was off the air.
