The audience in Moscow has the opportunity to listen to 54 radio stations, while, for example, in Anadyr there is only one local radio station. It is necessary to develop regional radio so that all residents of the country have equal access, equal opportunities for <...> this type of audio content," he said at the Local Radio: Innovations and Prospects conference, which is taking place in Sochi.

"This is exactly what small Russian cities lack now, a high-quality assortment of information and music. For this, it is necessary to develop, it is worth spending money on it.

The National Council for Television and Radio Broadcasting of Ukraine announced that it had canceled the licenses of seven opposition TV channels, including Nash, Maxi TV, 112 Ukraine, NewsOne, ZIK, UkrLive and First Independent, the corresponding decision was made in Thursday. Details - https://tele-satinfo.ru/index.php?id=17091 (https://tele-satinfo.ru/) * USA ------- In the US, they are trying to protect broadcasting on medium waves. While Europe is gradually abandoning even analogue FM broadcasting, the US is trying to protect stations broadcasting on medium waves. The point is here. In the USSR and in Europe, throughout the 20th century, medium waves were broadcast mainly by powerful state transmitters or radio stations on the principle of "one for the whole city". And so that at night it was audible to the whole planet. And private radio stations began to appear in large numbers already with the development of the FM band. In the United States and the British colonies, from the very beginning, there were many small stations that broadcast on medium waves during the day. Daytime stations were audible within line of sight, and they occupied the niche that FM then occupied all over the world. And there are still many transmitters owned by small towns, private companies, universities, schools and the presenters themselves. Details - https://tele-satinfo.ru/index.php?id=17095 (https://tele-satinfo.ru/) * Czech --------- New medium wave frequencies from Czech Country Radio. Country Radio's private mediumwave station will operate on the new frequencies. These changes were approved by the Radio and Television Council. Listeners accustomed to 1062 kHz via a transmitter in Prague-Zbraslav must re-tune their receivers to 639 kHz from Liblice. České Radiokomunikace is decommissioning the Zbraslav transmitter and will build a gigantic data center in its place. Broadcasting from Liblice will have the same capacity as from Zbraslav, i.e. 20 kW. New for Country Radio is 954 kHz via the transmitter in České Budějovice. The last time this was discussed was when České Radiokomunikace, in cooperation with Český rozhlas, began testing digital broadcasting in the DRM standard during last year's holidays. Country Radio broadcasts will be broadcast at 5 kW. Country Radio mainly broadcasts country, folk, 60s music, spiritual and gospel music, tremp music, bluegrass or classic rock and roll. Broadcasting began in August 1991. The daily audience is approximately 265,000 people. In addition to medium wave, the station uses FM, satellite broadcasting and its own mobile application. On medium waves, for example, summer residents listen to her.

(https://alexander.n.se/en/) * Denmark. ---------- Denmark plans to leave the long waves. Idun Ritz of mediumwave.info reports: "Another good old longwave transmitter will go down in history. It is with a heavy heart that I announce the news that the Kalundborg transmitter on 243 kHz will be switched off at the end of 2023, December 31st. He worked from August 29, 1927." Idun also says that if you listen to this station and report on the reception, then you still have the opportunity to get a QSL. Jens Christian Seeberg, a former station engineer, will confirm the reports on his own initiative. Please be patient as Jens Christian does this on a voluntary basis and has other things to do besides that.

At first, it was planned to broadcast programs of the Holy Quran on them. By the way, on the website short-wave.com. this program is still reflected at these frequencies. The station has been on the air since May 3 this year. Regarding the QSL policy of the station is still unknown. The broadcast is in Arabic. In Crimea, it can be heard with a weak signal. I think this is due to the fact that the station broadcasts to Africa. The station is on the air according to the following schedule. UTC time. From the transmitter in Bechar: 3-6 9470 6-9 15110 8-11 17600 11-18 21550 18-21 17600 21-3 13590 From the transmitter to Ouargla 18-21 15160 21-9 13790 The program of reading the Holy Quran on the air: 18-23 at the above frequencies.
