Broadcasting is organized using modern FM transmitters of the Microtek-TF500 type with a power of 0.5 kW. Radio Russii is broadcasting at a frequency of 87.5 MHz in the city of Iskitim and 89.6 MHz in Sokur, Moshkovsky district. With their commissioning, the Siberian Regional Center of RTRS completed the construction of a radio broadcasting network in the FM band. The installation of new generation broadcasting transmitters was carried out as part of the joint activities of the All-Russian State Television and Radio Broadcasting Company and RTRS under the program: "Plan for the modernization of the networks of analogue terrestrial broadcasting of radio channels Radio Russii", "Mayak", "Vesti-FM". In the Novosibirsk region, the RTRS branch has created a network of 59 transmitting broadcasting stations. The radio station "Radio Russii" with regional tie-ins of the STRC "Novosibirsk" studio became available for 1369 settlements of the Novosibirsk region with a population of about 2,756,366 people, which is 98.5%. This event can certainly be considered a kind of gift to RTRS for the 85th anniversary of the Novosibirsk Region, which is celebrated this year.

It is reported by Ura.ru (http://ura.ru/) with reference to Andrey Tvorogov, CEO of the Perm Echo. "We have decided to change the broadcasting policy. We believe that we will broadcast in partnership with Sputnik FM radio. This corresponds to the needs of the audience today, "the news agency quotes Mr. Tvorogov. Ekho Perm has been broadcasting in the Kama region since 2000. At the end of 2021, the asset was acquired by the Gubernia Charitable Foundation, which is close to the leadership of the Perm Territory. In 2022, the station lost its federal partner, Ekho Moskvy radio. The Prosecutor General's Office of Russia demanded to restrict access to the radio station's website. Since, according to the supervisory authority, he is spreading false information about Russia's special military operation in Ukraine. This requirement was sent to Roskomnadzor. The websites of the radio station and the TV channel were blocked, and the radio station was taken off the air, after which the management of Ekho Moskvy decided to liquidate the radio channel and the website. Then the frequencies of the radio station were transferred to Sputnik FM, the state radio of the Rossiya Segodnya media group. After that, the Perm "Echo" began searching (https://t.me/pro_f_m/598) for a new federal partner radio station. Business FM was considered as the most priority partner. "Sputnik FM" in the leadership of the Perm radio station was previously called "temporary network partner".

Not at the same time, I guess. WRTH credits it with three. (Glenn Hauser-OK-USA) Yes, there seems to be only 3 active SW transmitters. They call it "TX7".

Ritz Denmark --------------- Kyrgyzstan August 24, 2022 The TWR Asia Center in Kyrgyzstan. For the Trans World Radio, medium waves are the best investment and they remain viable to reach target audiences in the remote parts of the world. In addition, medium waves have the ability to travel great distances at night and also to cover rough terrain. That's why the Red River Tx site near Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan, became a home to two sections of TWR: 1. PANI on 1467 kHz and 2. CAMENA on 1287 kHz. PANI stands for Pakistan, Afghanistan and North India and CAMENA for Central Asia, Middle East and North Africa. In addition to TWR broadcasts, Kyrgyz Radio broadcast on 612 kHz from this transmitter center. The TWR CAMENA started broadcasting their programs in March of 2003 with a power of 150 kW. The station was closed at the end of 2016, because the transmitter, which dated from the time of the USSR, was out of order. CAMENA's Central Asian Broadcasts had been reduced and moved to the PANI transmitter on 1467 kHz. For the frequency 1467 kHz a directional antenna from 4 masts went into operation in 2014 with an output of 500 kW. Then in 2019 the TWR had bought 2 transmitters from Germany at a very good price and reinstalled them on the Red River site. The diplexer made it possible to couple two transmitters to reach 200 kW. With a new directional antenna it became possible to cover some 60 million people dispersed in the vast steppes of Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, in the valley of Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan and in Afghanistan, North West of China, North of India and Africa - to 10 countries. In the last period of time - in 2020-2021 - the TWR was on the air on 612 kHz, 200 kW for the TWR Europe and CAMENA and also on 1467 kHz, 500 kW for the TWR PANI. In 2022 the TWR CAMENA is just on 1467 kHz in different languages.

In Russian = Inter Radio Romania. On August 20 of this year, the broadcast of the Russian service of the IRR was noted at a frequency of 11,940 kHz according to the schedule. At the same time, from 13.00 - 14.00 (UTC) at the parallel frequency of 13 610 kHz, broadcasting was noted, respectively. The broadcast quality on both frequencies was equally confident: the signal is very good with occasional slight atmospheric noise. As for the third transmission of the day, today also saw an equally strong signal on 11810 kHz from 1500 UTC (along with a DRM broadcast on 9580 kHz). All of the above speaks of the return of the Russian edition of the IRR to the regular broadcasting mode in accordance with the schedule. I didn't check the morning transmission of the service, and I didn't expect today that a signal will reappear at a frequency of 11940 kHz, as well as 11810 kHz. As you know, until recently, broadcasting on the above-mentioned frequencies was not carried out due to the lack of repair kits necessary to restore the transmitter's performance in Tsigenesti. Last year, when delivering the kits to the addressee, they managed to lose them, which required tender procedures and subsequent circles of hell. The second attempt was crowned, apparently, with success. So, you will have to slightly reconfigure the receiving equipment by adding the newly commissioned frequencies :-)) and return to the listening mode of the evening (third) broadcast of the day of the IRR Russian service, which was slightly forgotten during the period of silence. So let's listen to the radio! :-)) P.S. I confirm that there is a broadcast of the Russian IRR service at a frequency of 11 940 kHz from 13.00 (UTC) today 08/21/22 - an information release and now the "IRR Encyclopedia" with Anna Dinuts.

And already in the 1930s, the Soviet Union captured a new hobby - amateur radio. In complete silence, the Radio Museum can not only be seen, but also heard. Recognize by the velvety sound of vintage radios. Gennady Petrovich at the age of 14 began to assemble and repair radios. At that time, the hobby was interesting and fashionable. "The boys climbed into the attics. You will find something, some kind of receiver, you will disassemble it, unsolder it. And that's how it started for me," shared the founder of the Museum of Radio Gennady Semenov. Gennady Petrovich opened the museum almost 10 years ago. There was already something to fill the halls. For 30 years he has been collecting radiograms and receivers from all over the world. Most of the collection is a tube radio ...

(Wolfgang Bueschel, Germany) * LPFM gaining popularity in the US ------------------------------------------------ 25.08.2022 / No Comments While some European countries are cutting back on FM broadcasts, in the US, FM broadcasting is booming due to the proliferation of small, local "Low Power FM" (LPFM) radio stations, Radio Magazine reports. This category of stations for non-commercial, educational, public safety and transportation purposes was created by the Federal Communications Commission in 2000. By having their own transmitter, the radio stations emphasize their independence from the Internet as well as from the mainstream media groups. In recent years, the number of low power broadcast licenses for small local radio stations has been on the rise. These radio stations are equipped with transmitters up to 100 W, have a coverage area of approximately ten to twenty-five kilometers. Required investments - from 2 to 5 thousand dollars. Natural disasters, such as Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans, have contributed to the development of FM broadcasting. Due to the low power consumption of the transmitter, a diesel generator can be used for broadcasting, so that radio stations can transmit important information in emergency situations. "Proven technology for transmitting information in the event of a natural disaster, when power is interrupted, Internet access is disabled" is a favorite argument for applying for a license. This phenomenon worries national commercial networks, because many listeners are switching to these small radio stations, on the waves of which you can catch local news. https://swling.ru/2022/08/25/lpfm-nabiraet-populjarnost-v-ssha/ (https://swling.ru/) 73!
