Machine translation: http://translate.google.ru & https://translate.yandex.ru/ & https://www.bing.com/translator ----------------------------------------------------------------- FROM KAMCHATKA TO THE BALTIC ======================== Astrakhanskaya oblast. -------------------------------- - Astrakhan is a new city for broadcasting Radio Rodny Dorogi. Astrakhan is the oldest economic and cultural center of the Lower Volga and Caspian regions, included in the List of Historical Cities of Russia. Radio Rodny Dorogi is the largest independent radio network in the country. The best music from the 60s to the present day and up-to-date information about the situation in the country and the world from the National News Service sound on the air. Listen to Radio Rodny Dorogy in Astrakhan and nearby cities at a frequency of 106.0 FM. A complete list of broadcasting cities of Radio Rodny Dorogs can be found on the website www.radiord.ru Details in Russian - https://onair.ru/main/enews/view_msg/NMID__86873/ (OnAir.ru) - The fashionable dance "Radio Record" did not last two years on the Astrakhan air. Today, on his former frequency of 107.8 FM, "Road Radio" began to play. It has already been presented in Astrakhan, but broadcast at a frequency of 106.0 FM, where the Radio Rodny Dorogi radio station is now new to our city. What do all these permutations mean? Astrakhan radio is becoming more focused on the older generation. Nostalgic music of the late Soviet and early Russian years is gradually occupying more and more frequencies. However, there is logic in this: the times when young people dialed for hours to say hello on the radio, gone twenty years ago. And these young people have their own children growing up. Fans of contemporary music prefer streaming services, in extreme cases they listen to radio on the Internet. Therefore, the format of FM radio stations is adapted for their remaining audience - that is, older people. One can only feel sorry for the drivers of taxis and minibuses, who now have less choice for the sound background of the working day. Radio Record, which appeared back in 1995 and became the first dance radio station in Russia, began full-fledged broadcasting in Astrakhan only on October 14, 2021. Before that, there were several attempts to test broadcast (including in 2012), but then the radio station over and over again failed to obtain a license. arbuztoday.ru (https://tele-satinfo.ru/) Belgorodskaya oblast. -------------------------------- The license has been suspended.

It turns out that 106.7 MHz in the port city officially resumed its work on September 1 (the PRD was launched on August 23). P.S. With Ussuriysk, everything is much more complicated. Frequency 106.7 disappeared from the list of serviced radio stations from the RTRS website. And the latest sanitary and epidemiological conclusion on the RTPS indicates that there is no 106.7 MHz transmitter there: http://fp.crc.ru/doc/?oper=s&uinz=([J(.. A reminder was not sent.

The main operating conditions of the electronic communication network using the 666 kHz radio frequency in Sitkunai are as follows: The user of the radio channel is the Lithuanian Radio and Television Center AB The radio frequency (channel) is 666 kHz. The area of use of the radio channel is Sitkunai, Kaunas district. The deadline for submitting applications is November 06, 2023. https://www.rtk.lt/lt/naujienos/paskelbtas-konkursas-radijo-programai-retransliuoti-sitkunuose-1 Alex Yankovsky (2023-08-30) (https://mediumwave.info/2023/08/) * Lithuania. ---------- Some time ago, I talked about one of the Voice of Russia projects - the Commonwealth radio channel. He painted frequencies and transmitting centers for broadcasting. Now it's hard to believe, but broadcasting was carried out, including from Lithuania. Try telling them about it In that recording, I cautiously suggested that 1557 kHz alone would not be the end of the matter. Let me remind you. The radio station currently operating on this frequency ("Our Lenta") broadcasts from a radio center in Sitkunai, which was closed in 2016. The start of broadcasting is August 2022. Accordingly, the center was revived. Here is a link to that entry: https://vk.com/wall-158109176_2973 On August 30, 2023, Lithuania submitted a frequency of 666 kHz to the competition. This is an old frequency of Lithuanian Radio. In the recent past, there was even a broadcast in Russian. At that time, the Vikhr-type transmitter was operating, with a power of 500 kW. Lithuania itself has not been broadcasting anything on this frequency for ten years. And now... Suddenly out of nowhere. Contest. You need to understand that this is not just the case. The competition at 1557 kHz was, I believe, just a formal procedure. Who and what will broadcast - it was clearly known in advance. Otherwise, Sitkunai would not have been restored just like that, although the transmitter is used there imported. And now 666 kHz and another competition. With some certainty, we can assume that there is already a customer for relaying. You just need to wait for the competitive procedure. What kind of transmitter: a restored Soviet one or they will bring imports again, at the moment one can only guess. Interestingly, the girls are dancing ...

I assume the ARRT antenna is being used: 46.99341518966428, 30.896262571618276 The smaller cage antenna collapsed betwenn March 2020 and July 2021, according to Google Earth pictures. 46.991058757749634, 30.889149353921177 Some smaller ones exist next to the transmitter building, but I don't think that these are capable of high power broadcasts on MW.
