The draft relevant recommendations of the Council for the Development of the Digital Economy under the Federation Council have already been sent to the relevant departments. Such serious measures were required to improve the quality of TV signal reception near the borders with neighboring states. According to Izvestia's source in the Federation Council, Russian operators comply with the mentioned agreements, but their colleagues in unfriendly countries not only ignore them, but also try to drown out the television and radio signal in the border regions, replacing it with their own. Our signalmen can respond to this by increasing the power of equipment not specified at the international level or by similar methods used by unfriendly states, experts say.

The station's operating hours on 90.8 FM were 24/7 from the very beginning. Broadcasting was carried out from the Balashikha radio center. At first, the signal coverage of this frequency was very small, but in the process of development, the broadcast area gradually expanded. On November 26, 1999, the radio station stopped broadcasting on this frequency. On February 24, 2000, the Sport FM radio station started broadcasting on it. Radio "Govorit Moskva" returned to the FM band of Moscow on March 29, 2006 at a frequency of 92.0 FM. On the last February 1, 2013, the launch of radio "Moscow FM" took place.

Many of Africa's 54 countries, with a combined population of more than 1.3 billion people, use "traditional" radios extensively, highlighting the digital divide between developed countries and countries lacking reliable electricity and internet. But there are other reasons for the popularity of radio in Africa. It is closely related to the oral transmission of information, which plays a central role in the development of the diverse cultural identities and languages of the continent. The close relationship with such a reliable satellite as radio remains unprecedented on the continent, which explains why radio listening rates in many African countries are higher than the global average. For example, in a recent survey in South Africa, up to 94% of citizens over the age of 15 confirmed that they have a radio.
