Machine translation: http://translate.google.ru & https://translate.yandex.ru/ & https://www.bing.com/translator ----------------------------------------------------------------- FROM KAMCHATKA TO THE BALTIC ======================== Volgogradskaya oblast. --------------------------------- On August 2, through the personal account of RTRS, I monitored active (those that are now on the air) radio stations regarding the installation locations of transmitters, and this is what I got: 1. Kachinskaya radio tower - 93.8; 96.1; 96.5; 100.0; 100.6; 103.1; 103.6; 104.5; 105.1; 106.8. 2. Mamaev Kurgan - 71.33; 95.3; 97.6; 98.3; 99.2; 102.0; 102.6; 105.6. 3. New TV tower RTRS - 92.6; 93.4; 95.7; 98.8; 99.6; 101.5; 107.2. We will not affect the temporarily disabled 101.1; 106.4, we have that 94.9; 104.0; 106.0 really "moved out" from the RTRS facilities, and, according to Andrey Rebrin, they are together with 94.5 on a pipe near the Aurora plant. Then I have two more questions - where is the Serebyany dozhd transmitter - 107.9? Initially, it seemed like it was planned for a new TV tower, plus, on the RTRS website, there was news about the launch at their facility. And now it's not clear. And the reception configuration is not similar to the fact that he is now on a new tower. And where - 97.2 - "Nashe Radio". The sound there became bad, the reception too.

Marco (2023-07-26) (https://mediumwave.info/) - Russia July 28, 2023 Re. https://mediumwave.info/2023/07/26/russia-106/ I suggest that MOD must mean Modification.As for the last part of the text under 3 this must refer to co-chanel risks to stations in those locations (whether open or not). Movement to MOD will reflect the refining of the location to be at the huge Bolshakovo site rather than at Kaliningrad city.This might help a little.

The holiday was celebrated loudly, on a grand scale, with demonstrations. And not only in all cities of the country, but also in many other states of the planet in general. In 1956, a report about the May procession on Red Square was shown for the first time on television. The main editorial office of Soviet TV information was responsible for this project. Since then, television broadcasts of these events have become a real tradition. And importantly, all these records are preserved.

On August 1, 1964, the state broadcasting company "Mayak" went on the air for the first time. In the summer of 1964, the governing bodies of the Soviet Union decided instead of the 2nd program of the All-Union Radio to create an information and music radio station "Mayak" with round-the-clock broadcasting. Five-minute news releases were supposed to be on the air every half an hour, and between them - a variety of musical programs and concerts.
