But it is one of the main technical means that ensure the successful launch, flight and landing of manned spacecraft. At the same time, communication should be understood not only as telephone conversations with cosmonauts, the transmission of commands, signals and receiving reports from them, but also the constant reception from the board of objective information about the physical condition of the cosmonauts, the technical condition of the most important elements of the ship and the situation inside it, receiving signals about docking and undocking of ships, turning on the braking propulsion system, separating the descent vehicle, as well as receiving bearing signals to determine the landing area.

In the middle of the last century, when television in the Soviet Union was still in its infancy, and not everyone had television receivers, music broadcasts were limited to concert programs only. Nevertheless, already in March 1951, by a special Decree of the Council of Ministers, the Central Television Studio was formed, which included a musical editorial office (since 1957 it became known as the Main Editorial Board of Musical Programs). The editorial staff was given a new, unusual task - to turn music into its screen equivalent. One of these programs in the early eighties was "Music in the theater, in cinema, on TV" (another name is "Music of the TV Screen"), which replaced "Music Today".

"World Music Radio (WMR) started using the new 300W transmitter from April 12, 2023 on 15700 kHz after months of broadcasting with only 10W. The transmitter is currently in test mode 24/7, but from next week it will only work on Saturdays and Sundays. Occasionally on weekdays (I can turn on the transmitter - on request, if anyone needs it). So far, the results have been good. The signal has been observed via KiwiSDR in South Africa, Kenya, Argentina, Brazil, Bonaire, USA, Iceland, Russia, Ireland, many places in Central and Southern Europe, the Middle East, Australia and New Zealand. Details in Russian - https://swling.ru/2023/04/13/world-music-radio-uvelichivaet-moshhnost-na-chastote-15700-kgc/ (https://swling.ru/) - Stig Hartwig Nelson writes on the WOR mailing list that he is testing a new 300-Watt transmitter at 15700 kHz. swling.ru also has information in Russian. In Moscow, the Belka telescope confidently receives this transmission at sunset (did not check at other times) on April 12 and 13.
