Detail in Russian + photo: http://www.rw6ase.narod.ru/index1/radiopriem/rp_pp/rp_pp1/alpinist2.html (http://www.rw6ase.narod.ru/) - Since the fall of 1964, the Alpinist-3 radio receiver has been prepared for release by the Voronezh Radio Plant. ''Alpinist-3'', according to the scheme and design, coincides with the Alpinist-2 radio receiver, and in addition to the vernier device, it also coincides with the Alpinist receiver. The difference between the receiver "Alpinist-3" is in the design of the case, which contains the design elements of the first two models. The receiver was not mass-produced. The photo above is a photo montage. In the photo below, the receiver is composed of the first and second models. This is how the radio receiver, Alpinist-3, prepared for release, looked realistic.

Tashkent TV tower. So, a few numbers, the Tashkent TV tower is a member of the world association of towers of the world and is the 12th largest tower in the world, the 3rd tallest in the CIS after Ostankino and the Kyiv tower and the first in Central Asia. Its height is 375 meters, and it is supported by three huge steel supports. Of course, its main function is television and radio broadcasting, but it is also an interesting architectural structure, which attracts tourists and those who are simply interested. In the foyer of the TV tower, a beautiful mosaic panel was created, assembled from natural stones from all over the Union. On two domes there is an observation deck and the Koinot restaurant, which means space in Russian. The blue hall is located on the lower dome, it is 95 meters high, the red hall is located on the upper dome, it is 104 meters high, both halls have a rotating platform around the axis of the TV tower and make a complete revolution in one hour, the platform moves so slowly that you you don't even notice it at first. The construction of the TV tower began in 1978 and ended in 1985 and was put into operation in the same year. Well, what the tower looks like now can be seen in our new video "Tashkent what to see! Sights! TV tower and the highest restaurant in Tashkent Koinot"!
