Novosibirsk. ---------------------------------------- The branch of RTRS "Siberian RC" expanded the coverage area of the only regional radio station in the Novosibirsk region with round-the-clock broadcasting - "Radio Suzun FM". Frequency - 101.3 MHz, transmitter power - 0.25 kW. Employees of the emergency and preventive group of the RTRS branch installed the Radio Suzun FM antenna at the facility in Suzun at a height of 77 m. This made it possible to increase the radius of coverage of the radio station signal. The opportunity to listen to Radio Suzun FM was given to 31,000 residents of 41 settlements in the Suzun district. The radio station broadcasts musical compositions, news about events in the world, country and region, weather forecast. Residents of the Suzunsky district first heard Radio Suzun FM on December 11, 2013. Opening an FM radio station proved to be a lengthy process. The founders of the radio solved all organizational, technical and financial issues on their own: from repairing the premises to filling the air. In the information program "7 days" radio listeners of the Suzunsky district are introduced to the events of the region, operational information, and comments from the administration. Residents of the district learn about most of the cultural and sporting events from the Radio Afisha. In the weekly program "Suzun Inspiration", the district club of amateur authors "Inspiration" presents its work to poetry lovers.

This was announced to TASS on Wednesday by the former editor-in-chief of Ekho Moskvy Alexei Venediktov (included by the Ministry of Justice of the Russian Federation in the list of foreign media agents). "The radio station was liquidated by the decision of the board of directors of Ekho Moskvy CJSC. And we are challenging this decision in the courts. We hope that the court will cancel this decision as illegal. And then, of course, we will return the license through the court. The radio station will return in the form in which she was. <...> While everything is decided in the courts. And we will go to the Supreme Court, there is no doubt. And if the radio station is restored, all the journalists who want to return to work, they will certainly return, "he said. According to Venediktov, in the event that the court still takes the side of the board of directors of the CJSC, which had previously decided to liquidate the radio station, the team will think in a new direction. "Courts in Russia are unpredictable. Now we have courts, there are a lot of them. In this case, I can say that the court will be soon," he said.

Ritz Denmark --------------- Ukraine June 25, 2022 Interesting situation with Ukrainian Radio's relay via Lithuania on 1386 kHz. It seems that Radio Baltic Waves International relays the stream of Radio Ukraine International, not that of the UR's First Channel. In March-May, both streams were identical, but some differences have appeared over the past month. At 21:05-21:30 UTC (approx.), there is a Russian language show called '... and the Russian world' (probably an allusion for Tolstoy's '... and peace'). RUI's schedule (for example http://ukr.radio/schedule/by-date.html?channelID=4&date=2022-06-24) features short news bulletins called 'Ukraine: Security Issue' in Belarusian, Russian, Polish, Hungarian, Slovak and English (the latter one is also heard on UR's frequencies in Ukraine) at 21, 21:20, 22, 00, 02, 04 UTC. The schedule is very volatile. I can confirm the Polish language block at 22 UTC. The MW frequency has been mentioned even by the host. News in the aforementioned languages must be relayed on 1386 kHz as well (between 21 and 03:30 UTC). Important notice: RUI schedule on UR's web site shows correct programming only for previous days, not for the current or next ones.

On June 15, 2022, the Swiss National Council, which is the lower house of the Swiss parliament - the Federal Assembly, voted against the postponement of the end of FM radio broadcasting in the country. This is reported by the OBOB.TV resource (https://obob.tv/radioveshhanie/shveycariya-nepreklonna-v-dele-otklyuche/). Earlier, the Swiss government - the Federal Council and the upper chamber of the Swiss Parliament - the Council of Cantons voted, on the contrary, to postpone the end of FM radio broadcasting to a later time, which should have occurred no earlier than when 90% of the country's territory was covered by digital broadcasting of the DAB + standard (which in Switzerland and comes to replace FM). However, now the National Council has blocked the proposal of the upper house and the government of the country, voting 79 against the postponement, with 73 votes for the postponement, and 24 abstentions. Thus, now the proposal to postpone the shutdown of FM radio broadcasting in the country to a later date will no longer be considered by the Swiss authorities.
